Grief from a different perspective

When you’re grieving, you can’t move on and you’re in pain. One of the big reasons for doing some work with grief is that it has an effect on the nervous system and also weakens your immune system so it has an effect on the whole of your life.

It’s really about waves of emotion that come with coming to terms with the loss both now and in the future.

In particular I’m going to be talking about grief in a variety of circumstances eg:

If you lose your spouse or your spouse becomes a different person. (That’s happened to me)

A member of your family or a friend become a different person or you fall out.

If you lose your home – lots of people lost their homes during COVID.

If you lose your identity so if you become ill, or you become disabled and that doesn’t go with the identity that you had in the future, then that’s a loss in itself.

If you lose your job or your career that you’re really passionate about then that is also grief and you can have anticipatory loss for something that you know will happen in the future.

So, say that either you or someone is going to die, or going to lose their job, then you can have the grief that goes with that. A lot of people don’t realize that they are grieving – they think that they’re depressed or anxious but actually there is a large element of grief there.


If you look up grief you find out that there are stages of grief, which either happen linearly or together, but the end result of you going through these stages is some acceptance. That can still be painful and can still affect your life going forward.

I want to talk to you about how I can help that because?timeline therapy(r)?removes those major negative emotions by reframing and dissociating the emotions from what happened.?Within a few hours, you can actually start to move on, get on with your life, and let go of the pain. You always know that you have grieved, but you will move on and be able to do whatever you want to going forward in your life

So, if you know someone that’s having problems with grief or you yourself are having problems with grief then?get in touch- I do a free half hour?and we can sort out exactly what the symptoms are and what the consequences are for you and just change your thinking so that you can move forward.

I’ll see you next week.
