Everyone of us have such experiences to some extent.
Generally speaking. This is due to a loss of something or someone. What we are really experiencing, is the absence of that which once was. Knowing this, we can be just as sure, we’re not alone.
Please be assured. I’m not making light of the emotion. They are all very real in the moment.

Before we go deeper, If today’s topic of conversation is where you’re currently at. I would strongly suggest you include your support network in your life. Should you find the need for quite contemplation, let them be aware of this. In doing so, allow times to “check in” with one another.

As ever. If you do require more formal assistance to talk through your current circumstance, please seek it accordingly, and involve your support network in this also.

Let us take a minute now in thankfulness and gratitude, towards those who provide continual support within our lives: –
From our nearest and dearest. To those who deliver the newspaper/post/milk etc. They all help us in some way, with our day. Remember: They have their lives too. Be thankful to all.

…

Let us now look at the following mindfulness exercise:

Noticing Your Helpers

Throughout your day, look at everyone as though they’re your helper
This could be a person who holds open a door for you, someone who bids you a good morning with a smile.

Remember: the person who may cut you up in traffic, or otherwise annoying is also helping you too. They’re allowing you to practice patience.

As this discussion draws to a close. I invite you to join me now for a minute, in memory of those now gone from our lives. Let us be thankful also, for the love, support, kindness and comfort they bought into our lives…

…
