I know that sometimes, life just hurts. And there is no way around the pain, but we can go through it. I hope this helps to give some space between you and all that pains you.

I lost my 35 yr old son 9 months ago - have trie other meditations which weren’t a fit for me. Was overcome by grief today and found you - thank you so much Michelle - I found my soft place to fall 💕🎆💕
Oh Carol, I’m so sorry for your loss. That is one that truly cuts deep. I’m glad you are here and hope this continues to be a soothing place for you to take care of yourself. Sending love 💜
Being discarded by my partner...my illness and ptsd are highly symptomatic...so sad and spiralling out of control. Thanks for your work sleep fairy. Hope youre safe with the big rains in NY...thank you Michelle. ❤❤❤
Oh dear, I do hate that you're going through this and sending you a hug and the encouragement to keep taking care of yourself. I was okay with the big rains weeks ago, but we haven't had a break! Every weekend more rain. So happy the sun came out today!
I'm so sorry that you experience this as well. I've been through similar, and it feels so much better to be on the other side of it. Wishing you both happiness and great health.@@poiu-i8g
"partner" isn't someone who discards a person, so they weren't really a partner, they were just pretending. Them being gone from your life gives you the chance to find a real partner. One who takes care of your needs even when they don't understand them, and doesn't leave. I had someone leave me once. Other women had given him the impression she'd want to be with him if he was single. I knew she was messing with him, he apparently didn't. Left me to get with her. Then discovered she didn't want him after all. Now, he is long term single and I'm married to a much better partner than he ever pretended to be to me. So...worked out well for me, not so much for him. The other woman idk about, she's presumably still messing men about.
I listen to this with no expectations. Thought this was a tall order and I’d like it but that it would be “just a nice “ meditation but again you just amaze me. Tell me this again and again and again. ❤
Michelle I've listened to you every night for years and years now. Probably like 5 or 6. I have chronic pain and insomnia and panic attacks, so sometimes I just listen to you for hours on hours.most nights all night long. I'm not sure you'll even see this and I'm sure it's silly to say this, but tonight I keep listening to this meditation and I'm so grateful I thought I would say that. My dad died at 59, very unexpected no illness or unhealthy ways. It's forcing me to see my mom, who is my critical abuser and I'm trying really hard to keep the boundaries I had set up but also do what is necessary. I'm in a state of panicking and old feelings of not being good enough no matter what I do. While also maintaining my mom composure and not making my daughter feel those feelings. I try really hard to break the toxic cycles I grew up with. But anyway that means at night these feelings are so incredibly intense. And I couldn't stop the spiral of thoughts after being triggered tonight. So many old horrible feelings. The words I needed you said. I really am grateful for you and the meditations you have. There's always something that helps. Thank you so much. I know it's silly to go on but I also know there are negative comments and for all those critical comments maybe you can see you help so much. Truly so much. My husband says put Michelle on when. We love you. You are a literal comforter to us. ❤️
Your timing for sending this comment was utter perfection. There are times when I receive such criticism from longtime listeners that it makes me question my work. And your comment confirmed exactly why I create. Congratulations on finding such a supportive husband. I'm sorry for all you have gone through and the loss of your dad. Cycles of toxicity can go on for generations and here you are doing all that is in your power to break them. It's not easy. And it can interrupt sleep. But I hope my work continues to serve as a sanctuary and give you the chance to tend to your heart and mind. Because you deserve to feel good, safe, and enough. You are enough and always have been. Thank you. 💜
Thank you Michelle for this meditation. I have strong abandonment issues that provoke depressive moments. I've cried a lot listening to this but it has certainly helped me confront pain in safety. Thank you so much❤
Thank you again Michelle 💓 I haven't heard this one and I'm hurting pretty deeply right now 😢 I Listened to this while I was awake first. And had a much needed cry .When Its time to sleep soon I will fall asleep to it. Thank you again 💓
I am sending you the biggest virtual hug and hope this brings some peace. I'm sorry you're in pain and am so glad you are doing all you can to tend to your heart.
Thank you Michelle for offering these meditations here. I've been familiar with you for years on Insight Timer, but it was getting so that I couldn't access many of your meditations without coming up with money i didn’t have. You have been so helpful to me, that if i had it, I wouldn't mind at all! But that isn't the case. So thank you, thank you for this option!
I'm glad you found me here-- I do my best to release on as many platforms as I can so you can choose what works for you. I appreciate you being here and thank you for sharing your experience! 💜
Your compassion and love comes through like the sun breaks through the dark and deeply soothes my soul... SO I CAN and DO pass that on to others! Your beautiful work flows to the world one heart changed at a time! I am radically grateful for how you uniquely contribute SO profoundly, A deep thank you!
I've been listening to you daily for several years, this time last week was the most painful day I've had in a really long time, and this is the first time TH-cam recommended this particular video for me. Sometimes their recommendations are puzzling, this time it was bang on!
I am glad the algorithm worked in your favour this time! Thanks for giving this one a listen-- I am so sorry that you have had such a hard week. Hope this one gets better 💜
On mother's Day, my mom left our home in Maryland and flew to Texas to see a specialist about her cancer. She was unresponsive at the airport in Texas. I barely made it down there in time to say goodbye. She was very sick and had pneumonia. I was devastated after she passed. I came home and started putting her affairs in order and then I got very very sick within 2 days of returning home. I was just diagnosed with pneumonia in both my lungs that I caught from my dying mom. I'm overwhelmed with grief and physical illness. I need comfort and rest more than ever, and your video has been a part of my relief. Thank you, Michelle.
I am so sorry-- I responded to this and it appears my comment didn't go through. I hope by now you are feeling better physically-- such a loss is so great and how complicated it all became. I've always gotten so ill when I've lost those close to me. Sending you love 💜
I just lost my grandmother to a bowel infection earlier today and I was distraught throughout today and I needed this so badly. I am so happy and grateful for this practice. I needed this so badly and I'm glad this came out when I needed this. Thank you.
I am so glad they have helped-- this one in particular I wrote over the summer when a dear friend was diagnosed with cancer. I wish you healing and peace and appreciate you taking the time to write 💜
I'm always blown away by your imagination and talent that's written all these beautiful stories, and your voice and sincere way you tell them makes you one of the best and iv listened and still do to a mixture of people. This story sounds like just what I really need atm. Thankyou Michelle for the untold beautiful nights and happy Lions Gate portal. OK it's 02.34am 🇬🇧 and ✨️ I'm about to sleep trusting in your words. Much love ❤️
The last two days have been horrendous, grief on top of depression on top of a huge amount of stress. Thank you so much for this meditation, which I've used three nights in a row now.
I hope these days improve-- remember to congratulate yourself for doing the things you can right now to feel better. 💜 I hope this helps whenever you listen.
Thank you so much for creating this meditation! My mental health has been terrible the past few months and sleep has been very disrupted. When i listen to this though, my thoughts quieten and I drift off to a good sleep. Thank you so much for your work ❤
I'm so glad you are here and I hope this continues to help you. It's hard to even approach tending to mental health when also suffering with sleep deprivation. I hope it continues to resonate with you and help you sleep!
I cried last night so much .i had so much cold and sore throat still cant stop crying .thank u for comforting words .sometimes people on internet understand and comfort more than real people . I wish everyone would understand like thiz and stop hurting .
I am so very excited to this meditation tonight, although I'm doing well at the moment I know I can revisit this whenever I might need to, thank you so much Michelle 🙏 💛 💚 💙
Feeling really painful today, my life has taken a completely different turn and I am going through grief and depression. I just want to survive 💜 I hope looking back on this message things are different for me and I am in a better place . I pray that’s the case
I'm so sorry-- when we are in those painful periods the way out doesn't seem clear always. I struggled so much in 2021 I didn't know what it would like to just feel safe and healthy in my body. The other side of that gives me more peace that I could have ever imagined and I wish the same for you 💜
I have recently returned from the hospital, and I have listened to this meditation frequently. I would like you to know how very grateful I am for this message. I would like to hear more of this type of meditation messages. May you have wonderful happy holidays. Mary
Thank you for this Michelle. I need this meditation more than ever, especially this week as the Holidays approaches, I just feel super crappy (because of many different reasons) but oh well, all I can do is persevere and carry on until I can’t, and listen to your meditation of course, the only safe place of mine. I’ve been living kinda in isolation and away avoid humans. Sometimes i miss a good human interaction; and your voice does just that. :-) Happy Holidays to you! Best wishes! W,
I'm so sorry you were feeling that way but always honored to be able to help in any small way-- now that we've made it to the other side of the holidays! May the new year bring you all that you seek and thank you for being part of this sanctuary. 💜
This was a pleasure to listen to. I always learn the most important emotional tools an orb of emotions is now my go to feelings checker. I've learned so much from you since my becoming a fan. Thank you for knowing exactly how to help me
Thank you so much--- I'm very visual and needed to have something in the hardest times-- it's a privilege to be able to share it and I hope this visualization helps!
Thank you for this. I have been having nightmares for the last few weeks and I have barely gotten any sleep because of it. So thank you for posting this. I really appreciate it. Have an amazing night. I wish you all the best things in your life ahead. ❤😊
I recently lost my dog to death unexpectedly. This has helped a tad bit at least with sleep, but idk when it’ll fully help like a lot. I’m trying to fully grieve as fast as possible. Although I know grief isn’t linear. Any advice for me? Been following this channel for awhile now.
Me too. I’ve had several cleansing cries lately over dad whom left us 11-years-ago. His goodness must win over all the blurriness amid his life’s fearfulness. My dad’s ashes/urn are buried near where he was raised with headstone, a 6-hour drive away. I prefer memories with loved ones anywhere outside some graveyard. So did dad! 🕊️✨💕
I had a bad feeling about my daughter coming to visit and I made the mistake of letting her in and she hurt me as usual. Sadly to protect my mental and emotional well being I have to walk away. It's been this way for five years and I don't see it changing.
Oh I am so sorry 💜 But how wonderful that you know you have every right to protect your heart and mind. Family dynamics can be so hard but you desert love and to feel safe. I wish you a 2024 that brings all you need and seek!
Hi Michelle ur sleep stories are always so positive. I never worry about something phrased in a negative way or disliking something you say. You have a very unique gift and I appreciate it so much. What I would also love to hear from you are a series of affirmations I bet your affirmations would be on par with Louise Hays. Just thought I’d ask if it was anything u would consider. Thank u for everything!❤
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Oh Michelle I adore u! I would love to hear affirmations about anxiety, feeling safe, becoming more grounded things along those lines. Thank u for responding to me. Ur the best ❤️❤️
Am I supposed to cry my pillow wet, press pause, and think I will try this again tomorrow? And I will until I can put my pain from many losses to sleep. Cuz honestly I seem to have not been able to be my ol' self and happy. What and who I lost hangs on like the heavy backpack of books I lugged everyday in highschool.
Oh, I am so sorry. If you find it helpful, sure. If you are able to really become an observer over time and it works for you. Healing is not linear and not everything will work, but you can decide what fits for you. I remember how much those heavy backpacks were. One day in school, my English teacher said, "I don't know how you carry all those books!" And I thought to myself, "Well I don't have a choice." It's the same with loss--- we don't have a choice and it's so hard to make peace with that. But keep being kind to yourself, and the things that feel like a loss are feeling that way because of the love and depth of good that was there. And is still part of you. 💜
Vivienne, I love your words, how you put my similar memories to yours prove me less lonely! BTW, later in this meditation are some soul comforting truths. It’s superior to hear others like yourself because I realize I’m not lonesome after all! Bless-You! 🕊️🙏💕
I hope it helps-- and that you continue to find ways to soothe your nervous system and find softness-- it is still here, with many loving souls who seek the same comfort and peace 💜
I'm so so sorry for your loss. The more I have said goodbye to my beloved pets over time, the more I realize it is always hard. The amount of love they shared with us is reflected in a different way when we lose them-- and unexpected deaths leave so many questions. I hope you find peace and are kind to yourself as you continue to heal. It's been a rough few months since i lost my chihuahua quite suddenly, but it does get better-- the pain lingers, but the good memories come to the surface more.
I just had to rehome a kitten I rescued off the streets and looked after for a month. I tried not to get attached, but somehow I did. Saying goodbye was so hard, I keep bursting into tears, but I know she's gone to a very good home.
That kitten was so lucky to receive so much love from you and to have a good home. I can imagine how hard it is-- it's impossible not to attach and I hope you are able to look back with pride for all you did to give that kitten a chance. I know it's hard and so sorry 💜
2023 has been a rough year, my wife & i lost our son when she was 25 weeks pregnant in February of 2023, i lost my dad to health issues 3 weeks ago on 11/2/2023. I love these type of videos to help me relax my mind and wind down when i get home from my job as an emergency dispatcher
jrp, I can’t imagine the pain you and your wife are feeling especially this coming month. My heart aches for you. I pray you and your wife are believers. Jesus is the great comforter and is the only way I get through the day sometimes. I will remember you in my prayers.
Oh, be patient with yourself-- that is an incredible loss. I like to think that the healing doesn't stop-- it continues. And the grief remains, it comes in waves, but over time it becomes lighter. So sorry for your loss 💜
Sorry it didn’t help! I keep my content free but I do need to survive. And ads help. I imagine it’s not something you care about when seeking help yourself. Hope you find something that works better for you.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Hmm, I wonder why they were there. Maybe (hopefully) just a glitch. I love your stories Michelle and don't mind the ads in the beginning at all. All the best to you ☺
@@kassakupla I’m sorry that happened- one of the hardest things about being a creator is I have limited control. It’s why I’ve tried to release as a podcast, downloads, streaming, and with apps as they are the only places I can have more control.
I know that sometimes, life just hurts. And there is no way around the pain, but we can go through it. I hope this helps to give some space between you and all that pains you. So you may tend to it and also put it to sleep so you may sleep.

This has been an incredibly tough week and I'm very fragile right now. Hoping this can help a bit. 💔 Thank you Michelle.
Sending a hug and hope this helps. I know it can be hard-- and feeling fragile only makes feelings feel bigger. Hang in there. 💜

I had a bad feeling about my daughter coming to visit and I made the mistake of letting her in and she hurt me as usual. Sadly to protect my mental and emotional well being I have to walk away. It's been this way for five years and I don't see it changing.
Oh I am so sorry 💜 But how wonderful that you know you have every right to protect your heart and mind. Family dynamics can be so hard but you desert love and to feel safe. I wish you a 2024 that brings all you need and seek!
Hi Michelle ur sleep stories are always so positive. I never worry about something phrased in a negative way or disliking something you say. You have a very unique gift and I appreciate it so much. What I would also love to hear from you are a series of affirmations I bet your affirmations would be on par with Louise Hays. Just thought I’d ask if it was anything u would consider. Thank u for everything!❤
Sure, I have done a few but always open to more. Is there a certain focus you would like them to have?
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Oh Michelle I adore u! I would love to hear affirmations about anxiety, feeling safe, becoming more grounded things along those lines. Thank u for responding to me. Ur the best ❤️❤️
@@MmMm-qe2zo she is the best for sure
I’ve been ruminating since last night. I feel like having a good cry but the tears just won’t start.
I have a few movies I always go to for this-- it's a frustrating feeling. Hope you were able to move that energy.
Hoping this can help me. 2:02 am and my mind is racing through the misery of my life
I hope it helped you fall asleep.
Am I supposed to cry my pillow wet, press pause, and think I will try this again tomorrow? And I will until I can put my pain from many losses to sleep. Cuz honestly I seem to have not been able to be my ol' self and happy. What and who I lost hangs on like the heavy backpack of books I lugged everyday in highschool.
Oh, I am so sorry. If you find it helpful, sure. If you are able to really become an observer over time and it works for you. Healing is not linear and not everything will work, but you can decide what fits for you. I remember how much those heavy backpacks were. One day in school, my English teacher said, "I don't know how you carry all those books!" And I thought to myself, "Well I don't have a choice." It's the same with loss--- we don't have a choice and it's so hard to make peace with that. But keep being kind to yourself, and the things that feel like a loss are feeling that way because of the love and depth of good that was there. And is still part of you. 💜
Vivienne, I love your words, how you put my similar memories to yours prove me less lonely!
BTW, later in this meditation are some soul comforting truths.
It’s superior to hear others like yourself because I realize I’m not lonesome after all! Bless-You! 🕊️🙏💕
after this horrible election night i. definitely need this.
I hope it helps-- and that you continue to find ways to soothe your nervous system and find softness-- it is still here, with many loving souls who seek the same comfort and peace 💜
She was only a bit over 8 1/2 years old. I had her since she was 7 weeks old
I'm so so sorry for your loss. The more I have said goodbye to my beloved pets over time, the more I realize it is always hard. The amount of love they shared with us is reflected in a different way when we lose them-- and unexpected deaths leave so many questions. I hope you find peace and are kind to yourself as you continue to heal. It's been a rough few months since i lost my chihuahua quite suddenly, but it does get better-- the pain lingers, but the good memories come to the surface more.
❤❤
I just had to rehome a kitten I rescued off the streets and looked after for a month. I tried not to get attached, but somehow I did. Saying goodbye was so hard, I keep bursting into tears, but I know she's gone to a very good home.
That kitten was so lucky to receive so much love from you and to have a good home. I can imagine how hard it is-- it's impossible not to attach and I hope you are able to look back with pride for all you did to give that kitten a chance. I know it's hard and so sorry 💜
My lungs have been hurting im trying to quit smoking 🚬 i feel on edge big time!! Relax Tricia

Encouraging you in your journey! 💜

2023 has been a rough year, my wife & i lost our son when she was 25 weeks pregnant in February of 2023, i lost my dad to health issues 3 weeks ago on 11/2/2023.
I love these type of videos to help me relax my mind and wind down when i get home from my job as an emergency dispatcher
jrp, I can’t imagine the pain you and your wife are feeling especially this coming month. My heart aches for you. I pray you and your wife are believers. Jesus is the great comforter and is the only way I get through the day sometimes. I will remember you in my prayers.
@@Jennifer-uk3jd thank you for your kind words. Its been rough, but we’re getting through with the help of family and our therapist.
Losing my wife 6 months ago I thought time would heal no it hasn’t married for 37 years
Oh, be patient with yourself-- that is an incredible loss. I like to think that the healing doesn't stop-- it continues. And the grief remains, it comes in waves, but over time it becomes lighter. So sorry for your loss 💜
Thank you for what you do. Your voice is so calming
I don’t even know what caused her death either
How about no commercials. This was useless
Sorry it didn’t help! I keep my content free but I do need to survive. And ads help. I imagine it’s not something you care about when seeking help yourself. Hope you find something that works better for you.
No, I don't have commercials set for the end of this.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Hmm, I wonder why they were there. Maybe (hopefully) just a glitch.
I love your stories Michelle and don't mind the ads in the beginning at all. All the best to you ☺
@@kassakupla I’m sorry that happened- one of the hardest things about being a creator is I have limited control. It’s why I’ve tried to release as a podcast, downloads, streaming, and with apps as they are the only places I can have more control.
