10 Ways Hypnosis for Grief and Loss Can Help You

Grief can cause a lot of stress and there is always a lot to do when someone you love dies.  On top of that, you may have to go back to work quite soon, or you are already back at work and don't feel you've had time to process your grief. You may feel overwhelmed and not able to concentrate. 

You may be so busy and overworked that you haven't given yourself time to grieve?  Or does your grief interrupt you all the time so that you are overwhelmed by intense feelings of sadness, so that you can't get anything done?  Are you hiding your grief with alcohol or food, or hiding in sleep or not going out? 

We all deal with grief in different ways, but often it can become problematic. We need to grieve, yes, but we don't want it to completely take over our lives.  

Hypnotherapy for Grief Recovery

Hypnotherapy is a way of giving yourself the time to find some calm and peace for yourself.  It will allow you to process your grief, but at a pace that is right for you.  Hypnosis is a great way to help you overcome grief and loss and reach a stage where you can enjoy the memories of your loved one without being overcome by the pain of missing them. 

There is nothing scary or strange about hypnosis and you will not lose control of your own thoughts.  In fact, just the opposite.  You will gain more control over the way you grieve and think about your loss.

Really, it is just a way of becoming deeply relaxed so that you can calm your mind and teach your brain to focus on the positive love you shared, rather than on the sadness of your grief. 

Don't worry that hypnosis will make you face up to things before you are ready.  That isn't the object at all.  The purpose is to allow you to take a deep breath, stop, spend some 'you' time and help you to relax and connect with your inner strength.  

You may find that you are then able to clarify your thoughts and get things done, which will take the pressure off, and stop you worrying about whether you will be able to cope with everything. 

We have partnered with 'Hypnosis Downloads' so that you can benefit from sessions perfectly tailored to you and your particular bereavement. These sessions can be downloaded straight away on your computer and used anytime you feel overwhelmed by sadness and grief. 

You are always completely in control and can come out of the hypnotherapy session anytime you choose.  Here are a few ways that these sessions can help you. 

10 Reasons for Using Hypnosis to Get Over Grief

Hypnosis can gently help you come through a time of grief in various ways, it can: 

  1. help you find some times of peace where you can rest from your grief, 
  2. reduce the unbearable intensity of your grief, 
  3. help you look after yourself with compassion,
  4. organise your grief so that you can grieve at your own pace but not all the time, 
  5. find a place for grief in your life which doesn't overwhelm you,
  6. reconnect with the positive memories of the person you have lost,
  7. enjoy your memories without them being so charged with painful feelings,
  8. allow you to access a feeling of calm and strength,
  9. help you to move on with your life without feeling guilty,
  10. empower you to get things done. 

Grieving is a process, not a permanent state, and we need to go through this process. With these hypnotherapy sessions, the process will become less fraught with stress and tension and a more a time of appreciation and love.  

When you start to feel the grief lift and be replaced with feelings of peace and love, you will be glad you tried hypnosis for your grief and loss. 

So give yourself a chance and experience for yourself the benefits: 

1. Time out to grief and be kind and patient to yourself.  Time to process. 

2. Give yourself grieving time, but also give attention to your other needs throughout the day.  

3. Remember the person for who they were when they were alive.  Don't let them be defined only by their death.
