• 0:40
  Hi, it's Adam here and in this. Episode of The Hypnotist.
• 0:44
  You're going to be listening to a hypnosis session.
• 0:47
  That isn't for. Grief and bereavement.
• 0:50
  In the traditional. Sense.
• 0:52
  For most people, grief starts at the actual point of someone
• 0:57
  passing someone actually making that transition.
• 1:01
  From life to. Death.
• 1:03
  This is different in the sense that the client that I was
• 1:05
  working with knew that their father was coming to the end of
• 1:09
  their life and therefore they wanted to really mentally
• 1:15
  prepare for that and almost start that grief process early
• 1:20
  by reaching that point. Of understanding and.
• 1:24
  Acceptance closing any open loops and tidying up any
• 1:28
  unfinished business so that. They were able.
• 1:32
  Then to perceive the passing of their father in a really
• 1:37
  positive and empowered way, rather than for a lot of people
• 1:42
  there's a very sad occasion, but not.
• 1:44
  All death. And bereavements need to be sad
• 1:50
  quite often. It can be more sad if there is
• 1:53
  an element of surprise or it's feels unfair or unjust.
• 2:00
  But this? In this case.
• 2:03
  Their father lived a very long life, accomplished a lot, meant
• 2:06
  a lot to a lot of other people, and definitely taught them a few
• 2:10
  life lessons, both of what to do and also what not to do.
• 2:14
  And therefore it could be possible to harness all of those
• 2:19
  elements of wisdom and insight before they pass.
• 2:22
  It was difficult for them to actually have a conversation
• 2:25
  just because of where they were in terms of cognitive capacity,
• 2:31
  but that's why there is an element of this hypnosis session
• 2:35
  which enables them to say anything that they feel.
• 2:38
  Would be useful. To say even if it means they
• 2:41
  meet them at a different stage in their life and they said at
• 2:44
  that point in time is really designed to preempt grief in
• 2:48
  many. Aspects.
• 2:50
  And to make the passing more of a positive experience than it
• 2:55
  would be had they not connected. Certain meanings.
• 3:00
  To what was happening and reached that point of acceptance
• 3:03
  earlier. Obviously in this particular
• 3:05
  case there is a quite specific reference.
• 3:08
  Is the reference to a father certain memories or things they
• 3:12
  might have done for them and that might not be relevant for
• 3:15
  you. If you're listening to this and
• 3:16
  maybe there's a family member that is close to the end of
• 3:19
  their life and and you feeling this hypnosis session might be
• 3:22
  relevant. I would say you can still use
• 3:24
  this session in the sense that connect to anything that feels
• 3:29
  relatable to you and just ignore anything that isn't.
• 3:31
  But if you do feel like a customized session for you and
• 3:35
  perhaps a loved one that you feel is on the verge of passing,
• 3:38
  or maybe they have, you know already.
• 3:41
  Left. You know and passed, but there
• 3:45
  is open loops and you want a session to help close those
• 3:48
  loops, close those unfinished business or take out any emotion
• 3:52
  and that could be anything from sadness to anger, which often
• 3:56
  can come up when you know there's the point of grief and
• 3:58
  bereavement. If any of that sounds like it
• 4:01
  might be beneficial for you, there will be a link in the show
• 4:03
  notes where you can schedule a completely free consultation
• 4:06
  call to explore working with me. For now, though, find a quiet,
• 4:09
  comfortable place where you won't be.
• 4:10
  Disturbed. Relax.
• 4:12
  And I won't say enjoy the session, but certainly
• 4:14
  experience the session. Take a deep breath in, breathing
• 4:56
  in, a feeling of calm relaxation, and as you exhale,
• 5:06
  just allow yourself to settle into a deep sense of comfort.
• 5:19
  Feel as you exhale, tension leaving your body in that
• 5:27
  outward breath, and notice. Before long, your breathing gets
• 5:38
  effortless, deeper and more relaxed, almost like your body
• 5:50
  is doing the breathing for you without any effort required.
• 6:04
  Scan your body for any clues of tension and imagine that tension
• 6:10
  melting away and feel it leaving your body in that outward
• 6:17
  breath. So a miracle happens.
• 6:23
  The deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become, and the more
• 6:30
  relaxed you become, the deeper you breathe, taking you deeper
• 6:37
  and deeper into a state some people call hypnosis.
• 6:51
  And in that state of hypnosis, your imagination is amplified
• 6:59
  and supercharged, giving you this sense of experiencing a
• 7:05
  world in your imagination more like a dream than reality.
• 7:23
  And I wonder if you can. Use that power of your
• 7:27
  imagination to imagine. Imagine a place in Palm Springs.
• 7:42
  Perhaps you could imagine a building, perhaps with the
• 7:48
  terrace that overlooks the vast golden desert.
• 7:56
  Maybe you could imagine the sun feeling warm on your skin, or
• 8:04
  perhaps a gentle breeze carrying the scent of desert flowers.
• 8:12
  And maybe way off in the distance you can see the outline
• 8:18
  of the mountain range, see the shape and see it as being strong
• 8:27
  and steady. And I want you to imagine the
• 8:35
  most relaxing chair you've ever seen is there on the terrace.
• 8:40
  Perhaps a reclining. Chair and.
• 8:42
  Just imagine sitting into that chair and allow yourself to gaze
• 8:48
  out over the horizon, and with every breath you feel more at
• 8:58
  ease, more relaxed, as though the world has just slowed down
• 9:07
  purely for you. In this moment.
• 9:14
  There are blue skies but a few clouds and focus on the gentle.
• 9:21
  Movement. Of those clouds, and with your
• 9:26
  focus on the clouds, a wave of relaxation begins to flow
• 9:32
  through your body. It starts at the top of your
• 9:37
  head, perhaps a soft or warm sensation beginning to travel
• 9:44
  downwards. Any tension in your forehead
• 9:49
  just releases. Feel your jaw relaxing and maybe
• 9:58
  your shoulders loosen, and this wonderful sensation of warmth
• 10:04
  continues down your arms into your fingertips, releasing any
• 10:12
  and all tension on its way. Feel that you're also releasing
• 10:22
  any emotional weight that you've been carrying.
• 10:29
  With each breath your chest expands, and as you exhale, feel
• 10:38
  that release of any tension in your back or your stomach, just
• 10:43
  letting go now, sinking deeper and deeper into relaxation.
• 10:56
  Your legs feel heavy and warm, and soon a deep, peaceful
• 11:05
  stillness starts to feel like it's a wonderful comfort, almost
• 11:15
  like a blanket cocooning your entire body with relaxation and
• 11:24
  calm. You are here, you are safe and
• 11:33
  you are present, and I want you to imagine keeping your physical
• 11:41
  body there in the chair, but allowing your imagination to
• 11:46
  walk through the desert. I want you to imagine your
• 11:54
  barefoot, so the sand beneath your feet is soft and warm,
• 12:01
  shifting just slightly as you step forward, and with each step
• 12:09
  feel yourself drifting deeper into comfort, into that place
• 12:17
  within your mind of quiet reflection.
• 12:25
  The desert is vast and peaceful, much like time itself, and just
• 12:34
  as dunes can shift with the wind, you begin to feel a gentle
• 12:40
  shift within you, a shift towards even more calm, towards
• 12:48
  trust and towards acceptance. And as you stand there breathing
• 13:02
  in the quiet beauty of this place, I wonder if you can allow
• 13:08
  yourself to send something deeper.
• 13:13
  And knowing that life is an endless journey, maybe there's a
• 13:20
  part of you that have always believed that we are eternal
• 13:24
  beings, simply passing through different experiences.
• 13:31
  Our body is just a vessel representing different moments
• 13:37
  in time. And if that applies to you, it
• 13:44
  applies to everyone else, particularly those that you
• 13:47
  love. Your father would be no
• 13:50
  different. And maybe the vehicle for his
• 13:57
  journey is reaching it's natural time to transition to the very
• 14:08
  next adventure in a different vessel.
• 14:18
  Perhaps you believe that in this journey of transition, they are
• 14:26
  not alone. There is someone waiting with
• 14:31
  love and warmth. Maybe you can imagine or feel
• 14:38
  their presence. Perhaps you could imagine that
• 14:43
  person waiting for him, standing the edge of a shimmering
• 14:50
  horizon, smiling, arms open, ready to guide him to what comes
• 14:59
  next. Maybe you see them together,
• 15:08
  reunited, sharing in the joy of a new beginning.
• 15:16
  And just as they are finding happiness in this transition, I
• 15:22
  wonder if you can feel a sense of calm, of trust, of knowing
• 15:29
  that this perhaps is the right time for him.
• 15:37
  Maybe you come to a natural evaluation that his soul has
• 15:43
  lived fully and now he's simply moving forward to the next phase
• 15:52
  of his next journey, a journey that was always meant for him.
• 16:01
  And as you breathe in this sense of peace, any lingering fear,
• 16:08
  anxiety, or resistance begins to fade away.
• 16:15
  There is no need to overthink, no need to hold on to what was,
• 16:23
  because what is, is simply the natural flow of life.
• 16:33
  And you have had the gift of sharing these final years with
• 16:38
  him. So take this moment to reflect
• 16:45
  on all or just some of the memories, the moments of
• 16:49
  laughter, of wisdom, of love. Let gratitude fill you, maybe
• 17:04
  for the lessons he taught you, for the times you spent
• 17:08
  together, or for the love that will always remain.
• 17:21
  And now let your mind drift back to a memory, a moment in time
• 17:27
  when your father taught you something.
• 17:31
  Maybe it was a skill, a value, a quality, or just a way of seeing
• 17:38
  the world. And as you recall this memory,
• 17:45
  feel the presence of that knowledge or that quality within
• 17:53
  you, because what he gave you, what he shared with you, still
• 18:03
  lives inside you. Now that could be his wisdom,
• 18:11
  his strength, his love. It is all a part of you.
• 18:18
  And because of that, he is never truly gone.
• 18:29
  I want you to believe that He will always live through you,
• 18:36
  through all the ways His presence has shaped your life.
• 18:48
  And now, in this peaceful place, seeing him when he was at his
• 18:54
  most vibrant, where there was the strongest connection between
• 19:01
  you both. Imagine that version of him
• 19:06
  standing in front of you now, and allow yourself a moment to
• 19:13
  say anything that still needs to be said.
• 19:20
  And you could imagine your father here at any stage of his
• 19:24
  life, perhaps as he is now, or when you felt that strong
• 19:32
  connection. Because this is your time to
• 19:37
  speak, to share your heart without hesitation.
• 19:44
  Maybe there were frustrations, unfinished business, moments of
• 19:48
  anger that it'd rather was said than not said.
• 19:55
  Maybe it's to express what he really means to you, the impact
• 20:01
  he's had, to ask him if he's proud.
• 20:14
  So whatever it is, this is your moment.
• 20:19
  Feel yourself saying it now, maybe in your mind or out loud,
• 20:26
  and feel the relief of knowing that he hears you, that he
• 20:33
  understands. And as you complete this moment,
• 20:42
  feel a deep sense of closure, of peace, of knowing that nothing
• 20:52
  is left unsaid. You have spoken from your heart
• 21:00
  and in doing so you have freed yourself to fully embrace the
• 21:09
  beauty and acceptance of what comes next.
• 21:20
  Give him one final hug, say goodbye and feel yourself
• 21:26
  walking back through the sands to that balcony.
• 21:32
  See yourself in that comfortable chair and step inside that
• 21:36
  version of you, feeling that different parts are becoming
• 21:42
  one, and allow that version to have permission to drift back to
• 21:51
  the here and the now. No longer in your imagination,
• 21:56
  but back in the present moment. But take all, all the feelings,
• 22:07
  the acceptance, the connection with you as you take a deep
• 22:14
  breath in through your nose and out through your nose.
• 22:21
  Just wiggle your fingers and wiggle your toes.
• 22:23
  Connect fully into the here and the now as I now count from 1:00
