Honoring The Loss Of A Pet

This course is for anyone who is experiencing the loss of a pet no matter how recent their passing. Losing your pet can be a painful and devastating experience, one that is personal and often times isolating. Like any major loss, our fur babies leave us with a heavy heart and the healing process can be long. Here you will be offered practical support for healing through storytelling, remembrance ritual, and gratitude for all those lessons your pet has taught you. You are invited to use these practices at any point in your journey through grief.

May your heart begin to heal and your pain be replaced with loving memories.

Leçon 1: Sharing Your Story

Day one is all about writing, sharing, and owning the story of your time with your dear one. We begin with a story of recent loss that was the inspiration for this course. You will then be gently guided through reflective prompts that you may use to begin the telling of your shared story with your friend. As you begin to journal your story you will gradually soften and heal your loving heart and transform your grief into loving memories.

Leçon 2: Creating A Remembrance Ritual

Today we honor our dear ones and our relationship with them, by creating a place for a remembrance ritual where we will then read the poem, "Rainbow Bridge", author unknown. We will then complete the ritual with a guided visualization and affirmation practice for self-compassion, as we let our dear one know that we will be well.

Leçon 3: Gratitude For The Lesson Our Pet Taught Us

On this final day, you will continue to heal and begin to recognize all the lessons your dear one taught you during your time together. These lessons whether small or deep open the heart and transform the suffering of grief into loving memories. Today, you will nurture your heart through a meditation of gratitude for all those lessons.

Thank you Cheri for creating this course. I lost my doggie in January and have been missing him a lot. While listening to your story, tears came to me and I felt a big relief after finishing the course. I have lots of loving memories with Toby and lots to be grateful for. He was (and still is) a loving teacher 🐶❤️🥰

Thank you for helping us navigate this hard part of our journey. This has been very helpful and we may repeat these again.

A wonderful course. It helps a lot to know that I am not alone in my grieving for my dearest friend of 13 years, Charlie. Thank You 🙏🏼
