Dear Mary And Rechard,

This is very nicely worded guidance on meditation.

Easy and simple. Lovely.

Great.

God bless you.

Thanks for this. It’s a beautiful meditation technique.
I’ve read this in Sri Bhagwan Rajneesh’s 112 meditation techniques but I think the description was better (for me) on this web page.

Thanks again, will try and practise this whenever possible.

Best
Ravi

[...] Avoid clenching your buttocks or lifting your pelvis off the bed. Try focusing on your breath with techniques like this one. [...]

Bob, 9 months since the death of your wife of 54 years is no time at all. Time will heal, but this is a huge loss and major change in your life. You can use the meditation and see if the added tears have a benefit. If the grief is bottled up, it can cause a different kind of pain. I wish you well.

Thank you for your fast response Mary. I have had no problems releasing my grief and, after 54 years of marriage, maybe I’m expecting results too quickly.
I have gone through one-on-one and group counseling at Hospice and I do meditation and read books but after 9 months I’m still in deep sadness. It has only been 9 months but the pain really doesn’t ease up. Maybe I should keep using your meditation method,accepting the added tears, and hope time will heal. Thanks again.

Bob, the only way through grief is to feel it fully. It’s painful but the tears are part of the healing. It’s important, though, to pace yourself. Also, we highly recommend that you get some professional grief support, especially if you suspect that you are depressed (beyond the natural sadness of grief).

I listened to the Grief Meditation Podcast and it seems to be a very good one but it makes my grief run even deeper. I thought it might ease my deep sadness from losing my spouse but the tears run even stronger through the whole meditation. Is it a good idea to keep trying this type of meditation or will it do more harm than good? Thanks for any comments.
