I also find doing meditation hard as my mind wanders as soon as it starts, and then the whole thing's finished, I am still awake and feeling no better. Therefore, I have made Calm, a guided meditation. I have a calm English voice, and the meditation has a simple background, which makes the audio even more relaxing.

When we lose a much loved dog it is like losing a best friend or a member of our family. It can be heart-breaking. Life may seem like it will never be the same again.

Losing your four-legged best friend is no trivial matter. The death can't be brushed aside with life carrying on as if nothing had happened.
