With vulnerability, I am sharing my voice and lyrics to six special songs, which helped me let go of the grief that ruled my life for years. Beside Me Always – I am singing to my son. I stand weeping at his grave, until the breeze surrounds me. Memory of Love – Although watching my mother fade with dementia was despairing, I never forgot her love. My Shining Star – My shining star winks to me outside my bedroom window. When I cry, I can hear him whisper in my ear to heal. Hang On – I always prayed that one day my pain would go away. And one day it did. Set You Free – I will never forget the essence of what I loved so much. You were irreplaceable. When I set you free, it set me free. Alabaster Seashell – A beautiful seashell is something that holds memories and also is a metaphor for what can be left behind when the living creature has gone.

Such a wonderful selection of gentle songs. They are all beautiful titles and have to be helpful in the journey of grief. So pleased to find ‘My Shining Star’ Judy I love this organic presentation of your voice and guitar and I feel this presentation to be my favourite. 💜

You have such a sweet voice, and the raw emotion can be felt in your music, voice and lyrics. How lovely and inspirational these songs are, so full of loss, hurt and hope for the future. Thank you for sharing them!

Thank you so much Judy for your courage in embracing your vulnerability to share this with us- an immensely powerful and generous act. I am going through (yet another) grief process at the moment through my daughter growing up, but as always it links back into the chain of past griefs that I carry within me. I have taken today out to feel into it all and let the tears flow. Your beautiful songs have helped me access my tears and my well of grief this morning, it’s so cleansing. Much gratitude and love 🙏🏼✨🕯✨💚

Oh Judy, I loved the instrumental versions and commented once before. Those had a very special feeling to me. I knew the vocals would touch my heart, even more. So for some reason, I had waited to listen. Wow. Very moving and heartfelt. It felt like so much of these songs, had been written just for me. My first grandson and my husband are my Angels and stars in the sky. I Thank You, very much.

Beautiful. I’m new to meditation & Insight Timer, I’m finding your music & lyrics are the most beneficial to me currently. Whilst I do not have human children, I have had many “fur babies” & I’m currently grieving over my gorgeous girl Smokey, who is dying of cancer. Her diagnosis came as a total shock as she was the one cat who never had any health issues. I know that soon I am going to have to make that call to the vet & set her free. I’ve been praying for a miracle so I don’t have to do this, but it’s not looking good. My animals are my life, my babies. It hurts so much. So, whilst your lyrics are for loss of humans, I relate to them in my own way. I did also lose a friend & my grandmother last year. My grandmother had dementia so we knew it was near, but my friends death was totally unexpected. I think that grief is now merged into the sorrow I have about soon losing Smokey too. Your music & lyrics bring me to tears but that helps release some of the pain. Thank you ❤️💔

Wow Judy. Your broken singing made me cry a river of deceit. My unresolved grief for losing my mother that I've been masking for 2 years has been the core of my misery and suffering. Thank you so much. Are you playing that guitar. I play guitar. I am in recovery and I'm currently stifled. I have not written anything new in over 2+ years. I've dabbled with lyrics, poems and stories. Listening to you meditation I truly believe my stifle is lifted. Your an angel.
