  • "Feel Better: For When Life Hurts" is a transformative guided sleep meditation that offers solace in times of emotional discomfort, grief, and pain. In this immersive meditation, you'll visualize your pain as a delicate, luminous globe, observing its hues, energy, and size with compassionate detachment. As you tend to this metaphorical companion, you'll gradually make peace with it, freeing up valuable energy for your healing journey. The meditation then guides you to envision a serene dream getaway, where you'll find respite in a lofty bed amidst nature's beauty - a rustic cabin by a tranquil lake or a beach cottage perched on a cliff, where soothing breezes and enchanting vistas lull you into a restful slumber. Allow the gentle words and imagery to carry you towards rejuvenation and inner harmony. It's time to dream away.

    I know that sometimes, life just hurts. And there is no way around the pain, but we can go through it. I hope this helps to give some space between you and all that pains you. So you may tend to it and also put it to sleep so you may sleep.

    On mother's Day, my mom left our home in Maryland and flew to Texas to see a specialist about her cancer. She was unresponsive at the airport in Texas. I barely made it down there in time to say goodbye. She was very sick and had pneumonia. I was devastated after she passed. I came home and started putting her affairs in order and then I got very very sick within 2 days of returning home. I was just diagnosed with pneumonia in both my lungs that I caught from my dying mom. I'm overwhelmed with grief and physical illness. I need comfort and rest more than ever, and your video has been a part of my relief. Thank you, Michelle.

I need this meditation more than ever, especially this week as the Holidays approaches, I just feel super crappy (because of many different reasons) but oh well, all I can do is persevere and carry on until I can’t, and listen to your meditation of course, the only safe place of mine. I’ve been living kinda in isolation and away avoid humans. Sometimes i miss a good human interaction; and your voice does just that. :-) Happy Holidays to you! Best wishes!

      My dad’s ashes/urn are buried near where he was raised with headstone, a 6-hour drive away. I prefer memories with loved ones anywhere outside some graveyard. So did dad! 🕊️✨💕

    Am I supposed to cry my pillow wet, press pause, and think I will try this again tomorrow? And I will until I can put my pain from many losses to sleep. Cuz honestly I seem to have not been able to be my ol' self and happy. What and who I lost hangs on like the heavy backpack of books I lugged everyday in highschool.

    • @MichellesMeditationSanctuary
      @MichellesMeditationSanctuary  Před 10 měsíci +5

      Oh, I am so sorry. If you find it helpful, sure. If you are able to really become an observer over time and it works for you. Healing is not linear and not everything will work, but you can decide what fits for you. I remember how much those heavy backpacks were. One day in school, my English teacher said, "I don't know how you carry all those books!" And I thought to myself, "Well I don't have a choice." It's the same with loss--- we don't have a choice and it's so hard to make peace with that. But keep being kind to yourself, and the things that feel like a loss are feeling that way because of the love and depth of good that was there. And is still part of you. 💜

      I'm so so sorry for your loss. The more I have said goodbye to my beloved pets over time, the more I realize it is always hard. The amount of love they shared with us is reflected in a different way when we lose them-- and unexpected deaths leave so many questions. I hope you find peace and are kind to yourself as you continue to heal. It's been a rough few months since i lost my chihuahua quite suddenly, but it does get better-- the pain lingers, but the good memories come to the surface more.
