One mighty survive Grief Hypnosis tip
Hypnosis can't eliminate grief, but it can create a safe space to spend time away from griefing. Grieving, for first timers, can be an exhausting roller coaster - it's normal to feel drained or have a lack of concentration or be emotionally overwhelmed. Grief can be very personal and there is no wrong way to experience it. How you mourn depends on your personality, coping style, experiences, faith, and the significance of your loss. It is inevitable that grieving takes time, the healing doesn't have to take place quickly - and it also doesn't have to last forever.
Hypnosis can assist with uncontrollable crying, unwanted flashbacks, hearing unexpected songs that take you away from spending your time constructively. ‘Dissociation’ is a special hypnosis technique - it allows clients to process their grief at a manageable distance, rather than those taxing crying spells. When you are in hypnosis it's easier to remind yourself to take a shower, brush your teeth, buy some groceries - those extra bits of selfcare, so you can care for yourself.
Usually the grief - stricken person makes a constructed visual image of being with the lost person. They feel empty because they are not there in the picture with that person. When clients step inside the very same picture that stimulates the grief response, they are able to recover the positive feelings of the good experiences.
Hypnosis dissociation example:
Imagine holding a tennis ball in your right hand
Send all of your feelings and sensations into the tennis ball. You are now in a peaceful state - your feelings are in a tennis ball
2. Imagine blowing a bubble of gum, let it pop
Blow another bubble of gum but this time it floats and pauses 1 meter in front of you. See all the great fun times you had in the bubble ( the bubble is rose tinted - like rose tinted glasses)
Feelings are in the tennis ball & visuals are in rose tinted glasses & they are together.
Depending on the stage of grief, you have a third option to give yourself a Catharsis release - If you want to leave any certain feeling in the tennis ball you can.
It's also not that simple because grief is different for everyone…
