It never stops chatting, and it always tells you that something about you is not good enough, so no matter how many people tell you how clever, good looking, con dent you are, you always listen to that one voice that says you’re not. If a friend spoke to you like that, you would soon strike them from your contact book. You are what you tell yourself, and if that message is negative, so too are your thoughts and actions. Hypnotherapy can help you learn to listen to a better message that builds self-con dence, self-belief and self-esteem, so that you can be the person that you really want to be.

Grieving is the natural process of nding a way to live with this loss; with no time limit and everyone grieves di erently. Feelings of anger, abandonment; that life is out of control and the sense of unfairness ‘why has this happened?’ are common. However, experiencing feelings of relief especially if your loved one su ered with a long illness, guilt for not having done enough, or preventing their death in some way; remorse can also be common in a di cult or confusing relationship.
