Welcome,
Dear one,
To this heart-centered meditation to honour,
To remember and bless the soul of a companion animal who has departed this earth.
This moment is for honouring a sacred soul who shared their life with you.
A beloved companion animal whose love was unconditional,
Who shared their life with you,
Whose presence was a gift and whose departure has left a quiet space in your heart.
This meditation is not only remembrance,
It is love extended beyond time.
It is a sacred offering,
A blessing and a farewell wrapped in gratitude.
Let your body settle into your position of comfort.
Let your breath become soft and slow.
If you haven't already,
Closing your eyes and bringing your mind to the one you are here to honour today.
Feel their memory surrounding you like a warm blanket,
Their energy,
Their soul still lingering in the spaces they once filled.
You are not here to imagine it,
They are near.
Take a deep breath in and exhale with softness and love.
You are here to bless their soul and to whisper a message to them across the veil.
Let your breath now become the rhythm of remembrance.
Taking deep,
Slow breaths in and out of your body,
As you do this,
Feel their presence,
See their eyes,
Their warmth,
Their unique energy,
Send them love,
Remember how they made you smile.
Thank them for every moment shared.
Let your breath become the bridge between hearts,
Yours still here,
Theirs now part of great spirit.
You are not separate from them,
The love you shared lives on,
And so do they in a new form.
Let any tears fall if they come,
Let your heart now speak,
Let your breath carry your blessings.
Now with your heart open,
See them before you,
Not in pain,
Not in age or illness,
See them in radiance.
See them as joyful,
Vibrant and free,
Perhaps running through the fields of light or flying through the skies of peace,
Curled in warm corners of spirit's home.
Feel their soul rise,
Gently,
Gracefully,
They are returning to the great heart from which all beings come,
They are not lost,
They are returned.
You may whisper to them now,
Perhaps you say,
You are free my love,
You are safe,
You are safe,
You are home.
Watch them continue their journey with light all around,
Not alone,
But guided,
Held and honoured.
Now bring both hands to your heart,
Feel the warmth there,
The warmth they helped grow.
Let this warmth radiate outward,
Becoming a blessing,
A prayer,
A farewell.
Offer these words,
Thank you for choosing me,
Thank you for choosing me.
Thank you for the joy,
The love,
The loyalty,
Thank you for the joy,
The love,
The loyalty.
I bless your soul with all of mine,
I bless your soul with all of mine.
May you be surrounded in beauty,
May you be surrounded in beauty,
May you feel the freedom of spirit,
May you feel the freedom of spirit.
I release you with love,
Not sorrow,
I release you with love,
Not sorrow.
You will always be part of me,
You will always be part of me.
Send this blessing like a gentle breeze across the veil.
Let your pet soul feel your love,
Rising like a warm current,
Lifting them,
Guiding them,
Loving them into the next chapter of their eternal journey.
Rest in the bond that remains,
No more words,
No more images,
Just presence.
Breathe with them for a moment,
Feel the space they once occupied,
Not empty,
But full of memories,
Full of presence,
Full of love that didn't end,
It has only changed.
They live now in the wind,
In the morning sun,
In the quiet corners of your soul.
Let yourself receive this truth,
Nothing loved is ever truly gone,
That's right,
Nothing loved is ever truly gone.
They live on,
Not in the body,
But in spirit,
And you are still connected.
Rest in that bond now,
Let it wrap around you like a soft tail,
A warm breath,
A quiet nuzzle from beyond.
Your connection is eternal,
You can repeat in a soft whisper or in your mind after me,
My dear loved one,
Your soul is free and at peace,
Your soul is free and at peace.
I bless your journey with love,
I bless your journey with love.
Our bond lives beyond the body,
Our bond lives beyond the body.
You are part of my heart always,
You are part of my heart always.
I release you with grace,
I release you with grace.
You brought light into my life,
You brought light into my life.
You are loved beyond time,
You are loved beyond time.
I feel your spirit with me now,
I feel your spirit with me now.
You are safe,
Happy and whole,
You are safe,
Happy and whole.
I thank you,
I love you,
I always will.
I thank you,
I love you,
I always will.
Now take a deep breath in and sigh it out.
As you begin to return now to the world around you,
Bring with you the soft imprint of their soul.
Let this closing prayer rise from your heart.
May your soul run free,
Beloved one.
May you be cradled in peace and light.
Thank you for your love,
Thank you for your loyalty.
Thank you for your presence,
You have changed my life.
You will always be with me.
Go now,
Sweet soul,
I release you with love.
Place your hands together in prayer at your heart and bow gently.
My beloved,
I wish you peace and joy as you roam the universe.
When you are ready,
Slowly open your eyes.
Let your heart stay open.
Let their love live on through you.
For they are always with you.
Always in your heart.
Always living on.
Thank you,
Dear soul,
For joining this meditation.
And remember,
Their love lives on through you.
Blessings,
Blessings,
Blessings.
Namaste.
