When a loved one dies, one gets overwhelmed with negative emotions : stupefaction, denial, sadness, distress, anxiety, loneliness...
It is said that in order to "grieve", it usually takes two years of going through different phases.
Beyond these 2-3 years, if you still feel a deep sadness, which prevents you from living, moving forward, making projects, if the pain persists, then it is better to seek for help.
Hypnotherapy can help to relieve the pain, in the weeks or months following the death of a loved one or even after these two years, if the pain felt is still overwhelming...
The experience of one of my clients
When I first met with Karine, she told me that she had been having anxiety attacks for the last 6 months. And she was not able to make a link with a particular event. I asked her if she had seen a doctor about this, and she told me that everything was normal. She had a good relationship with her husband and her children were doing well. Her work was also going well.
Digging around, I learned that she had lost her mother at the age of 12, due to an illness. Her mother was then 32 years old. It was while talking with me that Karine made the connection and realized that she had just turned 32 six months before. We understood together that her anxiety attacks were due to the fear of dying, like her mother, at 32. All this is unconscious of course. Karine told me that the death of her mother was a shock, a trauma, and she realized that she had never mourned. 17 years later, she would still crie when talking about her mother.
During the session, I gently helped Karine with this mourning process. Karine was ready, and thanks to the state of hypnosis, the work is done gently. Karine quickly felt relieved. When she came back to see me the following week, she had a much higher level of energy and no longer mentioned the anxiety attacks.
