This method takes practice, like learning to play the violin. It may feel awkward and out of tune at first, but with time and patience, it becomes more natural, harmonious, and deeply restorative. If you didn’t grow up surrounded by unconditional love, you may need a little support at first, a person, group, or community to help you discover your own capacity for self-compassion. Especially supportive in Phases 3 and 4.

1. Set a Positive Intention for Healing
Write down a positive intention for healing including the phrase ****for the Highest Good. You can include any religious or spiritual intentions, and words that describe what you’d like to release, and what you’d like to experience.
2. Breathe and Be In Your Body
Use some natural, slow or somatic breathing.
3. Feel Your Feelings [Step 1]
Write down what you’re feeling right now.
<aside> <img src="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" alt="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" width="40px" />
What am I feeling?
Where do I feel it in my body?
If it had a color, texture, or movement—what would it be?
Examples:
I feel sad in my heart, it’s blue, like a translucent foggy dark blue sadness and despair, not much movement, maybe a little swirly.
I feel angry in and out my eyes. Sharp daggers of bright red, fiery rage streaming out my eyes forcefully.
Write down a name for your feeling form.
Sad Blue Foggy Heart.
Red Raging Eyes.
</aside>
4. Embrace Your Feelings [Step 2]
Accept, embrace and welcome your feeling form to be with you. Sometimes what we’re feeling, can actually be our resistance to feeling emotion. So do your best to let go of any resistance to feeling fully. You can say out loud or in writing to your feeling form:
<aside> <img src="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" alt="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" width="40px" />
I have so much time, space and love for you right now.
I see you, I hear you, I welcome you.
</aside>
If resistance remains, and it often can, acknowledge it, too. Just like emotion our resistance can be released by accepting, embracing and welcoming it too. You can say:
<aside> <img src="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" alt="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" width="40px" />
I see you. I appreciate you for trying to keep me safe. But I no longer need you to protect me from this feeling. I am strong enough to feel it now. I have NOT always been safe to feel my emotions fully, but in this moment, I am safe and I am ready.
</aside>
5. Express Your Feelings [Step 3]
Give a voice to your feeling form. Write it down. Let is speak freely. Let it be dramatic. Let it say and express whatever it wants without being censored or judged in anyway. Continue to express until you naturally find a greater stillness or silence within. You will find that eventually this feeling within has expressed all it needs to express.
6. Love Your Feelings [Step 4]
Now, from your Huge Heart, offer your feeling form the deepest love and care possible, unconditionally and with compassion. Begin by offering your feeling form gentle, loving words.
You can say this inwardly, or write it down:
<aside> <img src="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" alt="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" width="40px" />
I hear you. I see you. And I love you.
Thank you for sharing with me.
</aside>
Continue writing down any loving, compassionate words that your Huge Heart wants to express to your feeling form.
Next, ask your feeling form to respond in writing:
<aside> <img src="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" alt="/icons/first-aid-kit_pink.svg" width="40px" />
What do you need?
</aside>
Now, give your feeling form the experience they just wrote down. Use your Rainbow One and any other nurturing experience in your imagination to support giving this feeling form inside the experience that they need.
7. Write Down Awareness
After we’ve felt our grief and brought in healing and love, we often discover new clarity and courage to move forward. Take a moment to pause and reflect, it’s a beautiful time to ask meaningful questions or receive intuitive guidance for your next steps.
8. Thank and Reward Yourself
Thank yourself for showing up for your grievealing. Feel your gratitude. Reward yourself for completing this experience. Treat yourself with something that feels supportive and celebratory.

Grief can tempt us to spiral in doubt, shame, and self-blame, but healing begins the moment we stop abandoning ourselves and start meeting our pain with love.
Every time you choose compassion over judgment, every time you let yourself feel instead of fix, you break the cycle of suffering. And in that breaking, you rise, not into who you were before the loss, but into someone more whole, more tender, and more free.
