Coping with Grief: Guided Spoken Meditation for healing after a loss of a loved one 

Today I lost my dear dog, he came to me at 10 weeks knew nothing and left a wise old soul ... till we meet again dear friend.

My mama, my best friend, my soul mate and my heart passed away just over 3 weeks ago, the pain is like nothing I could ever describe. The agony is unreal. Rest my queen 💗

My baby boy died on this day a week ago he wasn’t even 1... I loved him so much more than myself.. Plz pray for Louie.. As I know he is up there playing in Heaven..

I lost my beautiful mother 2 days ago, she was my would , I cared for her the past year as her congestive heart failure took her away from, I am crushed and alone now . You always need your mother no matter how old you are, I will be 50 next year

I'm taking early steps today, my grandmother is 48 hrs to her passing, she's one of few that truly loves me... Please keep the Reyes family in your prayers... Thank you so very much...😪😪😪😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

i cried so much... my heart is broken... i don't believe that pain will go away... so broken..

I hope this works been 13 years since my daughter passed and still feels like yesterday

I come back to this meditation every time I am hit by a wave of grief and need to feel my Mom’s presence. It helps me process my painful emotions and leaves me feeling hopeful and connected to her once again. To all those grieving, I send you love and may peace fill every ounce of your being. You are not alone. Thank you, Jason, for this special meditation.

Today is my daddy's first birthday spent in Heaven. Thank you for this healing meditation.

My 17 year old best friend died in my arms tuesday. She was the best dog anyone could ask for and I had her all of my life from 9-26. She was who I talked to when no one else was there. I just feel so lost without her now.... Thank you for this. It helped me during my first day back at work. I'm a mental health clinician and this job is fucking hard when I'm hurting so much. This video helped soothe that. Thank you.

so beautiful...I lost my mom, my husband, my sister, all within the latest 11 years...I have no other family...this really helped since I feel like I'm all a one in this world...I love when u said I am deeply loved and never alone! I cried and cried...ty sooo much!!!

I lost my beloved cat a month ago and have been struggling with this loss. I may need to try this meditation again when I’m able to focus and not end up crying through the whole thing. I do believe that I will see her again in the afterlife, but until then it’s difficult to accept she left this earth far too soon.

I am greatful that I found this video / recording because my dog just passed away she is as much a loved one / family member as my grandmother & aunt this really is a big help

I almost drowned in my own tears during this. So powerful, I really needed this after losing my Dad it was a really special meditation. Thank you

Jason, thank you very much for this beautiful work. I lost my wonderful wife of sixty years eight months ago and since then, until listening to your healing meditation, I've been numb, feeling nothing. While listening to you,I truly felt her presence and, together, we experienced many of our happiest moments again. We talked, reassured each of our love and now know we'll be reunited when the time is right for us.

I lost my Grandma March 1st 2016 She raised me and was the sweetest and kindest person I have ever meet she was the bets Grandma ever I am 13 and this video helped me so much thank you

My brother was killed on valentines day this year and it has been traumatizing for me and almost unbearable. Listening to this made me see him alive again in flesh in my mind through all my grief i could see him. I cried i smiled and i hugged him, Im so thankful for this video thank you so much 💕

Thank you for this. It is the 3rd time I’ve listened to this meditation in the month since we lost our beautiful 13-year-old cocker spaniel. It has been a comfort and a way to pour out my tears. I feel him in my heart. I truly believe that he guided my husband and I to rescue a 2-year-old dachshund. I feel like he knew that I couldn’t bear to be alone and to come home to an empty house. I will be coming back to listen again in the future.

I cried so much but I needed to, I keep holding my grief in...I was sad but I felt love and light when my Mum came through that door.... Thank you

I much needed this as I’m missing my husband of 30yrs. Demons of depression got to strong for him. 7 months Hav gone by. I can feel his presence guided by strength to get through one day at a time.... our legacy of luv lives on in our dear sons. Peace to all. ✌🏻🤗🌈🙏😇

This weekend we lost our beloved cat of 12 years to poisoning. It was so chaotic and shocking. She was the most loving and affeciante soul she had seen so much. She fought so hard she was amazing. Our hearts are so sore and the rest of our pets she left behind.

I found my best friend and roommate dead 2 weeks ago. I found this meditation the night it happened, and I have returned to it many times since. Thank you for this, it is very effective and grounding. x

My daughter was taken from me by domestic violence.29 years of age .will this ever end?

I just slept through the night for the first time since our cat of 14 yrs passed away. I did have a nice cry half way through the meditation, and then drifted off into a pleasant dream. Thank you, Jason.

This was truly amazingly helpful. My son passed away 24 short days ago and I am continually looking for peace within myself to get through this devastating time. Thank you so much for offering this to me. It help me find some peace if only for a little while. Got bless x

My mother died in my arms one month ago today. She was 91 and in her final stages of Alzheimer's. I am lost, broken and terrified - having no one else. Four days after her passing, I lost an aunt, followed by a cousin a week later. My mother's loss is the most profound for me (it was just the two of us for so long). But I'm beginning to feel the soreness of losing the others - as well as ALL of my loved ones who have died years ago ... it' all too much for me. Listening to this, has caused me more sadness. However, I realize it's an exercise in my journey. I will go to it again ... and again. Thank you, Jason.

i lost my little dog and 10 days later I lost my lover, I am shocked stunned heartbroken. I just wanted to withdraw and die! I have been getting professional help. this meditation has been very comforting and helping me calm panic attacks. The day I had him admitted to ER my heartrate was 110. I know he still loves me and i like the safe place. thank you for your soothing guidance back to my life.

This is so helpful, having lost my Precious Mother two months ago....it’s unbearable pain, thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻My tears flowed...

Thank you for this wonderful meditation 🙏🏽🦋🌈 I lost my father to cancer on 3rd November this year. He was nearly 92. We had never seen eye to eye, he was always extremely critical of me, even to the last week of his life. I live on the East Coast of Australia, he lived in Perth, so I flew over to see him one last time, and all he did was bring up the past, criticise me for being me, get angry at me, even yell at me at times. I was always too soft and sensitive for his liking. But now, through this video, I’ve reconnected with my Dad and his energy is so beautiful and loving and kind and supportive, all those things I’d dreamed of having from my Dad while he was alive. And I feel at peace now, and cry every time I do this meditation, cry tears of sadness and happiness all at once 😢😔😌🙂🥲😀

I lost my brother he was my rock, very suddenly 2 months ago he was 37... I can't shake this alone lost abandoned feeling even though I have 5 other siblings. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with... thanks for this video. Jenn

... My Mother suddenly passed away last month. As one who found her, I feel like I've lost my smile and I haven't seen to grasp the situation. I will be trying this meditation in the morning and I thank you for having this on here for someone like me to utilize!

I just lost my father less than a week ago. (And my mother only 10 months before that.) But this meditation was incredible, beyond words incredible. I'm still drinking in the experience.

I lost my husband to suicide 15 months ago and this is such an amazing meditation which is helping me heal from the trauma and help me reconnect with him and the happy times we had together. Thank you so much for this, it is very powerful.

Thank you Jason. I lost my beloved dog last week and I can't cope yet. I'm so terribly sad.

Just had to put my cat down last night. He was very young, but got so sick so fast. He was my other half. My heart is so heart broken. Can’t eat, can’t stop crying.

My dog, my best friend, is being put down tomorrow. He has cancer and it’s sapping away all of his happiness. When you mentioned the room, I saw him how he used to be. So happy and playful and full of life and I’m crying. Thank you for helping me cope.

This meditation is so soothing and beautiful... I was afraid it would make me even more sad but it did not, it brought me peace... We all have dear ones that passed away, humans or pets and this grief is the strongest of all, it never stops... I hope you are alright...

Thank you for this, it helps me every night.. My little soulmate passed away 6 days ago and still can't accept the fact that he's gone forever. I make sure that I listen to this and everynight because this help me so much..

This helps more than I can describe. My mother raised me all on her own despite her numerous illnesses. I lost her this April and this is my first Christmas without her. I am glad I found this, it helps.

There is a special person who was there for me through some of the worst things I went through. He didn't really listen that much or have brilliant things to say. We only saw each other 1-10 times a month for a couple years. But he held me and gave me comfort. I did the same for him. I have been grieving the loss of him. Deeply. This meditation has helped me walk a path to grieving. I have been through way too much and become, stuck, frozen, anguished and depressed. This meditation is one of the most helpful tools I have come across. I have severely complicated grief, traumatic loss and overwhelming heartache in almost every area of my life combined with sole responsibility for a home, children, vehicle, yard, bills, job and all the responsibilities related to these. For anyone who is grieving or had loss, big or small ... keep going. Ration your grief and grieve as you are able. Make your own sunshine (happiness) on overcast days of the weather or of the heart. Every day is a new set of opportunities and experiences. Don't lose today. Use today. People shouldn't be used, but days should, that's their job, so use today. Every day gone by is a loss. Every pic, video, relationship and accomplishments from the past could be gone in a second. Only the pics and videos and relationships and accomplishments you engage in today can fill your heart today, so you go into tomorrow with a fuller heart. We grieve much more about our poor choices and lack of engaging than anything else. It is terrible to lose people or possessions, but when we know we did right by them and engaged with them, the loss is not as devastating. When we treated people badly or didn't do our best in a relationship or task or we fell short by not giving enough effort that we know we could have given, then we feel the loss of everything. Because we never had what we could have had and now lost it for good. So try. Don't lose today. Engage with the people, videos, pics and tasks you know will help you feel connected. It is the disconnected feeling that makes loss feel like the death of our own soul. Connect in some way with life. Engage. Don't just idle in neutral. Even if engaging means taking a long nap, journaling or doing something to distract yourself from too much pain. But remember to invest in some way. Maybe write a few lines of a letter to someone you love even if you have to save it to give them later. Take a pic, so you can compare your progress to how shitty you look today to how much better you will look in the future. See anything from a positive light if you can. Remember energy cannot be created nor destroyed. All your losses are not losses. They are still there, just in a different form. It's up to you to find it in it's new form. Good luck hunting.

I cried like a baby. All my loved ones came to meet me. I saw their faces again and didn't feel so alone for a moment or two. thank you.

thank you for this. I started crying and I couldn’t stop. but it was a good cry. I got everything out

Truly beautiful. I lost my beautiful darling wife suddenly 16 months ago and I love her more every day. This always makes me cry but I never want it to end. It shares the same thoughts and feelings I have every day. Thank You.

Lost my beloved horse Casper of 13years, definitely animals are just like us, and as much as they are apart of our lives, they are apart of our family and most of all our heart. Thank you for this beautiful meditation. 🌈♥️🌈❤️

I've lost everyone but my second son over the years, either to death or divorce or the harshness that life has thrown at me. Thank you so very much for making this video and sharing it with us. Thank you!

Losing my son to an overdose has been the most painful experience of my life. This meditation gave me a measure of peace, an opportunity to resolve some of the suffering around our estrangement and things left unsaid. Really beautiful, thank you.

Thank you for this. I lost the love of my life 77 days ago and I am lost without him. Since I found this I have listened to it daily, sometimes many times and it gives me some comfort.

Thanks for sharing this. We have to open up and express grief. I lost my Father last December and writing poetry has been my outlet. I have just started a RU-vid channel with my poems. So important to 'be' with grief sometimes so that you can come out the other side :)

This meditation is a gift to anyone who needs to find something inside you that you think you have lost, which you cannot actually lose its impossible to lose it, love from that person you have stored up, its all there and when you think you are going to burst you just listen to this and the love stored is given back to you whenever you want it to xxx

My dad died 3 weeks ago and we just had our first Easter without him. This meditation really helped me get through this day. Thank you, please post more if you can xx

Thank you so much Jason. I just lost my beloved cat last night. Today this meditation was so helpful. It brought some difficult emotions to the surface, but also a sense of peace. Thank you for your work.

My heart is broken from loss tonight.....thank you for this one

Thank you - this has helped me tremendously after losing my husband 25 days ago. I can sleep at night

Thank you so much for this. I recently lost my mother to pancreatic cancer and the grief has been hitting me like a freight train. In this meditation I could picture her smiling at me, us embracing and it made me happy to pretend, just for a moment, that we were still together. I have faith that somehow, some way I’ll reunite with her in the afterlife and until then I will carry her in my heart always.

I lost my mum a year ago and our world has seemed to have unravelled, I get distracted easily and find meditation hard but I think tonight was the first time I actually let go of some of horribleness and permanence of the grief, rather than trying to brush it under the carpet

I'm an animal person who sees pets as part of the family so a kitten from a mom cat we foster passing away has really taken a toll on me and I'm grief stricken. Particularly because I feel guilty over not realizing there were signs and acting but it all happened so suddenly and of course also because a life is a life. I started crying 5 minutes in I hope this helps me. It is making me feel more in touch with the universe but I'm still overcome by regret and grief.

Guided sobbing

Just found your channel. my daughter past always in a tragic accident 22 years ago. Wish I had this in my life then. I have helped many people over those years A Father’s Loss Thank you I'm adding this to my daily meditation

Thank you. I got the message from the baby I lost that “no matter what happened, I always wanted to be with you”. And that was, without my knowing, exactly what my heart needed to hear ❤️

Thank you Jason..Love for my beautiful wife can never be measured..it's like the universe..your mediation brought us together..so good..so cathartic..I saw her gorgeous eyes again..ty sir

Grateful for this video my little baby Boby died RIP LITTLE BOBY 😓💕💕💕 🐟 💕💕💕 😰😰😰😭😭😭😰😰😓

Being 21 and loosing my dad unexpectedly (THEN loosing my nan a week later also unexpectedly) has been the hardest and most confusing and different empty pain I've ever felt. These 2 loss have left me at my worst point mentally & really hope this helps. I hope something does when I'm alone and when I'm not with family or friends

I lost my nephew 39 then our furbaby tradgeclly nd then nursed my darling mum at home till she passed away November 29th all these losses have left me so drained in every way been from April 2016. but than you so much for this ots been a Hugh help to me. Beautiful L x

Thank you so much for this, it is the best thing that has happened to me since i lost my youngest brother suddenly last week. This meditation brought me so much clarity and peace and i was able to communicate with his spirit during the "visit". Thank you for sharing this and i will be sharing it with others.

Thank you so much. My loss is two beloved pets, a Mother and Daughter adult cats, violent, tragic deaths within 2 months. I won't go through the details, but I'm grieving much more, and have a lot more raw pain than I'd ever felt in my long life for anyone's loss. I'll use your video often from now on. Thanks for your generosity and skill Jason. Bless you.

Thank you. My Mother passed away October 15th this year. My Father 4 years ago. I could feel my Mother and Father. It was very painful yet also serene. I know only time can heal the loss of the physical person. The loss of them not on this plain.

wow I'm so glad I found this I. lost my Mum June 25th and it's so awful without her.

Covered in tears. Just lost a man I knew half my life. Was taken from us Nov. 26th. I feel him all the time, all around me. Like when you drink hot spicy tea and the heat is still in your throat, or the feeling in your chest like you're about to fall. John was the one who saved my soul, and introduced me to the quantum world. These meditations are truly a blessing, it felt like you were right next to me talking me through my meeting with John. Thank you to help lift me from this dark place. I thought I was lost forever. There's hope.

I agree with another post, it did not increase my sadness , it comforts me and gives me a different perspective.

I miss my dad so much. He was such a beautiful human being. I wish the whole world got to know him because he brought so much joy into my life. I love you dad. Forever.

Jason truly has a magic touch! I send good wishes to all of you who have lost someone dear; also, an extra big dose of LOVE and hope it helps!

Momma was like a perfect summer day, light in the sky, freshness in the breeze and color in the world. God blessed me with a friend and Mother, but she walks with The Lord now.

Thank you for this gift. I have been struggling mightily with the loss of my daughter. I have always had a very active imagination and this meditation has helped me greatly. Bless you.

I miss you mom, you always on my mind. May Allah give you highest place in jannah 🙏🏾

Just lost my dad who was my best friend, role model, and best dad I could ask for. Thank you for this. I miss him everyday and think about what a good person he was all the time. I will miss you until I get that next hug.

Thank you again Jason some how I seem to stumble across many of your videos that I need in my life in the moment. It means so much to me I wish you knew my gratitude to how much you have guided me through my difficult time for the PST few months you have been here when I need you. So thank you 🙏🏻 I stumbled across this one tonight and I am really going through so much and this really helped me to feel close to someone I miss with a heavy heart... alive but cannot see them as we both wish. My dear son. So I guess I am grieving but for someone whom is alive. It’s the worse pain in the world. So thank you Jason for helping me to not be alone when I have you to listen to. Love to all the world 🌍 xx

Thank you so much for this beautiful healing meditation. My husband Jerry has been "gone" nearly two years. He was and still is the light of my life. I will come back to this meditation daily.

I just lost my dad yesterday. I REALLY really needed this!

Thanks, this is the best meditation video ever. My father passed away recently he is my very best friend. This lovely video made me feel him beside me. I will never forget him, my best friend and hero of life. Thanks very much, I was feeling down until found this. Bless

Thank you so much for your soothing guided meditation. It has brought comfort to me after loosing my fur baby, my cat who was 16 and was my sunshine. I know that I will eventually heal but right now all my heart and soul wants to do is grieve.

My father died of lung cancer at the age of 51 years old(pretty premature), I didn't have strong bonds(experiences)with him but he was there for his family till his last breath, he loved & cared with actions while sacrifying his pleasures, not an emotional guy, he died while going everyday to work, he beared intense pain, and was smart, I'm 22, after all we're all going to be dead, science failed at even explaining dreams with backed-evidence, or replicate "consciousness" which remains a mystery, let aside failing to cure several diseases, there isn't enough reasons not to believe in an after-life(not in particular a religious one), It sucks not to see him again. This help express emotions than keeping them trapped. Thanks

so great thank you, I could see my lost loved one so clearly, and we spoke a bit, I really enjoyed seeing him again. he said "think of me" and I told him that I do. sincerely thank you, :)

This was beautiful. Thank you so much. Today we had to put my family dog to sleep (he was 14 years old, deaf, blind, and recently couldn't use his back legs). I've had such a hard day. It was so nice to use this meditation to picture him in a bright field running and playing. I can't thank you enough for this.

Thank you Jason, that was a huge comfort. My husband of thirty two years died this week after battling with dementia for ten years. I know that he is now at peace, and in my heart.

Thankyou for this precious and special meditation. It is something I return to when I need to feel closer and communicate with my Father who died in November 2020. ❤🙏

I've only recently lost my uncle due to heart attacks and this really really helped me. I started crying as soon as I visioned him coming through the door. Jason, thank you so much for this video, I've been listening to your sleep and anxiety meditations for around a year now. This video and all your others have made a massive impact on me. All I can say is thank you so much x

I was searching for meditation to help with grief and here I found one done by you Jason... it's like I was guided to you. You are amazing. Thank you for everything you do. I just lost my brother in law last week and it's been extremely hard not just for me but for my children. You're an absolute blessing.

I love this meditation. I am experiencing delayed grief. This helped me cry for the first time. Since then I continue to use when I feel like I need to grieve.

Beautiful meditation where I always come back to .. I have lost my entire family and I feel better when I imagine this meditation, safe, I am with your words and kindhearted Soul .. I wish I could have my family back for a while as guests, would be wonderful ❤

Perry was a rescue from Austin Pets Alive. He gave me the most loving 6 years of my 65 years here. Always present, always seeming to understand. I feel so blessed to have had him. Perry the cat, RIP.

My wife's birthday today and still a tough day after nearly 5 years. Listened and had a good cry again but is so beautiful. I know she is there with me every day and she helps me through every day. Love her so much. ❤

Thank you for this video, I lost my Grandmother at 82, and the day she was to be buried, I also found out about my daughter who was 22- died in a terrible car accident, so this has done wonders for me cause I wasn't sleeping, Thank you for your help!!!

It's so hard. I hate that she's gone. But thank you for this moment. I feel more ready to live fully again sometime. Good bye, Mindy-Moo, my little basset girl.

Thank you for this Jason. Your voice is so soothing. I find I dream about people who have passed on, as well as pets. Many thanks.

I lost my cat because she was hit by a car, have been crying for 3 weeks.. this finally helped me clear up a little bit. guilt and regret are hard emotions

That was amazing! Thank you so much. That idea of creating a special space to meet my Dad really helped me cry.

Powerful , cried deeply so healing thank you ✨ MY FRENCHIE ROCKY, GRANDPA , MOTHER IN LAW AND COUSIN CAME THROUGH 💚

I lost My father. Please keep me in prayers till I heal.Thankyou.

Thank you Jason for sharing this beautiful meditation with us! I lost my dad a month ago and it still feels unreal. This helped me feel his smile and love and positive energy
