Between Hand and Heart

I’ve been lucky enough to love a lot of animals in my life. But that also means I’ve had to say goodbye. Some of them I got to say it to. Some of them I didn't, and that's a different thing to carry.

Nobody hands you a way to do it. One day you find yourself driving to work or standing in the kitchen at two in the morning with your hand still remembering the shape of something.

So I made this channel: short guided meditations for anyone else who ends up in that place. Maybe for the first time. Maybe for the sixth, which isn’t any easier. The name is Between Hand and Heart because that’s the place where they stay.

You can listen however you want. Eyes open. Standing. On the floor with someone who is still very much alive and slightly in the way. Pause or stop if you need to. This space is yours and whatever you’re carrying is welcome here. 

Say hi if you like — tell me who you’re missing. Or don't. Both are fine.
I’m glad you’re here.
