Grieving, Honoring, and Healing

In this talk and meditation, we explore the experience of grief, letting go, and healing. As we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and to soften into our experience, we begin to heal and become whole. We also unlock the transformative potential of grieving and move closer to experiencing ourselves as we are, and reality as it is. In so doing, we gravitate towards our true nature of compassion, wisdom, and love, towards the fullness of being human. 20-minute talk followed by a 25-minute guided practice.

Headphones are recommended.

This session was very insightful for me. During the talk I found myself thinking of all the people I would like to share this with, people that I know have suffered loss. Then it occurred to me, I was not holding space for my own loss.. I didn't realize until I listened to this how much unresolved grief I was holding on to. Thank you again Thomas for another nudge toward wholeness. I will share this with many others and I will listen again, for myself.

One of the best grief talks I've heard. Please consider using a crisper microphone to better hear your soothing voice.

Thank you so much for this beautiful guidance. It made me see and feel the light in places where I thought I lost sight.

This has been needed for so long. Thank you. I’ll be listening again.

thank you for directing me to this talk/meditation. It is amazingly helpful in my time of grief— losing my husband of 35 years. I feel like putting it on repeat as it comforts and consoles me 🤍🕯️🕊⛄️

Thank you for this deeply soothing practice which goes to the heart of bleakest grief and softens the harshness of this very human experience. Namaste

This appeared on my list the day after my husband died. I’m going to use the Mary Iver poem in his memorial service. I expect I will come back to this one often. Thank you. Barbara

Thank you 🙏

Thank you so much for this meditation. Its helped me feel more grounded and open in my feelings of grief. This calming and nurturing energy is beautiful. 🙏🤍

Thank you so much. I'm in the process of grieving and this has helped me a lot!

Very helpful. Lost my 93 yr old mother last month who passed away alone in her assisted living facility. She died with covid although cause of death was Alzheimer’s. Because of the pandemic, my five siblings and I and grandchildren could only visit her through a window with a phone. She is remembered for her beauty, expressed in a ready smile, an exuberant laugh, and a deeply caring heart.

Thomas, I have been revisiting your offerings over the past month; I am in liminal space as my mother is in declension with Parkinsons. I closed with this lecture. It is very concise and poignant on a very complex matter. Placed me in mind of A Grief Observed by CS Lewis. Thank you sincerely. Please keep me abreast of any of your future offerings and endeavors. Your pedagogy truly resonates with me and aids in the cultivation of my immovable spot. A high and tipped hat to you. Terry

You are a great help to me, bless you 🙏🏻
