About this ebook
On October 6, 1990, the day after my forty-seventh birthday, I woke up fearful and anxious realizing I was middle aged and depressed. I sat in my condo, pondering why my life was the way it was, why I could never seem to catch a break, and why terrible things were always happening to me. I felt stuck, unable to move forward, enslaved by the hell that was my life. In order to get away from the negative thoughts, I decided to go to the beach, my special healing place. The ocean had always been my refuge, my little piece of heaven on Earth. I knew the beach was the perfect place to contemplate about my life. Had I known what was going to happen to me at the beach that day, I would have run away as fast as I could. The Reluctant Channel is the true story of my incredible journey with Tomas, my guide, and how this experience completely changed me, enabling me to create the life I never dreamed possible. It is my heart’s desire that you too will experience life changing moments that will impact you in ways you never thought possible and that you will create the life you always dreamed of.

About the Authors
PREFACE
I’m a seventy-two-year-old woman who has lived most of my life in fear. I was afraid of who I was, afraid of who I wasn’t. I was afraid of life, afraid of death, afraid of existing, afraid of surviving, afraid of being. I was afraid of knowing my purpose and even more afraid of being oblivious to it. I was scared of anything and everything. Fear and anxiety were my constant companions.
The only thing that scared me more than being afraid was the thought of not being afraid. My fears left me feeling paralyzed, believing that I was a freak and that most people would never understand me. Nor would they ever truly like me. In my desperation to feel loved, I used food, shopping, and drugs to fill the void within my heart. But the hole within me could never be filled. I went out into the world, searching for anything that could complete me. I searched and searched, but nothing I found ever lasted. I would hence be temporarily relieved, a sense of peace lurking over me, but sooner or later, this peaceful feeling would disappear and I was left to return to my dysfunctional patterns, alone and vulnerable.
I did not know how to love myself. The only thing I knew, the only thing I excelled at, was doing a great job at hating me—and I did it well! I hated my body, hated the way I looked. I hated the things I said, hated the things I did not say. I hated the things I did and hated even more the things I did not do. Nothing I did was good enough. Nothing I was was good enough. From mind, body, and soul, I was the exact definition of a wreck. I was my own worst enemy, spending most of my time being the faithful passenger of a destructive emotional rollercoaster where extreme highs and lows were the norms. During this vicious rollercoaster ride that was my life, I experienced bouts of severe anxiety and depression and I constantly thought of suicide. I once came very close to ending my life.
The night I almost killed myself, I was very weary. Everything was hurting badly. I felt the pain throughout all the cells in my body. It was in my muscles, my bones, my mind, my heart. Even my soul was hurting. I remember staring at the bottle of pills that I was holding in my hand and though I did not go through with it, I took comfort in the thought that if things got more difficult, I didn’t have to stay here and suffer. I had a way out. And so, when it was revealed to me that I would be writing this book, I immediately asked myself: Who was I to be writing a book, and who in the world would want to read it?
It was at the age of forty-seven that I met Tomas, my angelic, spiritual guide. I saw him clearly, heard him speak to me, felt his energy. The spiritual concepts in this book have been taught to me by him. I remember the day Tomas told me I was a gift. I cringed, thinking he was crazy. An uncomfortable chill ran down my spine, sending a wave of anxiety down my back. I then laughed and became very angry. I didn’t like nor could I grasp the concept of being a gift. As far as I was concerned, I was a mess, and anyone who hung out with me was a mess too. How could I, who hated everything about myself, even consider the thought of being a gift? Did Tomas not know who I was?
I, Helenne Deutscher, was far from being a gift. I had such low self-esteem that I consistently tried to destroy the person I thought I was. And every time I went on the path of self-destruction, guilt and shame consumed me like a thick fog, blinding my sight. I could not see clearly unless I punished myself for being so bad. But no punishment was ever enough. I was my most devoted accuser, judge, and executioner. I wasn’t a gift. I couldn’t be. And I couldn’t allow myself to think, or to believe that there would be a day when I would actually see myself as such—until, moment by moment, day by day, Tomas begun teaching me how to live life the way God intended for it to be. A life of peace, joy, prosperity, and love.
Who am I to be writing this book?
I, Helenne Deutscher, am a child of God, created in truth. With the help of my spiritual guide, I discovered the true God in me and who I truly am. My life has changed tremendously since the day I met Tomas, and this book is about the lessons I’ve learned throughout my journey as a trance channel as I struggled to accept the very things I did not believe I deserved.
I, Helenne Deutscher, am a daughter of the Universe, created in God’s power, energy, and love. My service here is to deliver the messages that have been taught to me in their original and pure state. I am a vehicle in service to God as a messenger of love to help my brothers and sisters rediscover their connection to the Source of All: God.
I, Helenne Deutscher, am a gift, a creation of the Supreme Creator. I have discovered how to live a fulfilling life and it is my great pleasure to share with you how you can do the same if you so choose. May the teachings in this book help you remove the blocks that are standing in your way in order to allow the blessings that are here for you to manifest in your life. Tomas has helped me achieve my heart’s desire, and I pray that this book will do the same for you.
A MESSAGE FROM TOMAS
Deep within each being is a door—a golden door. We have no conscious memory of it. Yet know that as you are reading this now, there is a part of you that knows this is the truth. In our travels within our being, we have stood in front of this door without knowing how to get the door to open. There is a keyhole in this door. We know that there is a key, but we do not know how to find it. And no matter what we have done in the past to open this door, nothing we have done has worked. The desire to open and go through this door is deeply rooted within us. We know there is a great treasure that lies behind this golden door—if only we could find the key to gain entrance.
My dear ones, I will now tell you where the key is that you are desperately searching for. The key to this door resides within you. The only way that you will find it is to go within yourself. Start the journey of finding you, by seeing all of your flaws revealed to you. Learn to love yourself unconditionally, no matter what you do or do not do, as God always loves you. That, my child, is the key that opens the door. Nothing else. No substitute will work.
Once this door opens, a whole new world and life will unfold in front of you. You will experience the gifts of peace and joy without overreacting to the situations of life. You will know yourself and so you will know God. What you give to yourself is directly given to the Father in Heaven, the Source of All, God, as well. May you feel the love that resides in the pages of this book and experience the wonders of peace and joy. You have no idea how much we, who are in Spirit, love you. We are here to serve you.
In love,
Tomas

Not Thomas. Tomas is my name."
Chapter 1
MEETING TOMAS
It happened on October 6, 1990, the day after my forty-seventh birthday. I woke up on that morning feeling down. It’s like the day after your birthday, the party’s over and reality sets in. On that morning, I was thinking: I’m an older woman—and look at me. I hate my job. I’m stressed about my finances, yet I continue to buy more things and remain in debt. I wish I could go away and start a new life. Someplace that’s nice and quiet, where the trees are tall, the leaves green, the flowers fully open, embracing the morning’s sunlight. I wish to go someplace where I won’t feel like I’m a failure, where I can forget about this reality, where I can just live a fun, happy life. But I can’t go anywhere—I’m stuck. I’m stuck with this life, stuck with my debts, stuck with my depressed thoughts. It’s not just a reality. It’s my reality. And there’s no place where I can escape where my reality won’t follow.
I forced myself to get out of bed and I walked to the living room, where I could easily look out of the window. From where I stood, I could see the beautiful blue sky and white puffy clouds. And just like that, my attention was redirected to the positive. It was another bright and sunny day. And as I gazed out the window, I felt a strong pull to get out and go relax on the beach. The beach has always been a healing place for me. It has always been one of my favorite places to go to regenerate. When I go to the beach, I feel calm, serene, and completely at peace. It’s like taking a deep breath of fresh air, letting it cleanse the insides of my body, releasing it and becoming a whole new person in the process. It truly is an amazing feeling. Without another thought, I gathered myself together, threw on my bathing suit and wrap, grabbed my beach umbrella, towels, and beach chair and out the door I scampered.
Being that it was an early morning, not many people were on the beach that day. It was just the perfect day to sit, relax, and let time pass by. As I crossed the boardwalk and reached the beach, I put my bare feet in the cozy, warm sand where I stood, looking out at the clear blue water with an endless view reaching the lighter blue sky. It was all so beautiful. I paused to admire the view. I wanted to take it all in. I watched the waves roll softly onto the sand and took another long, deep cleansing breath. My
