Death Bed / Chair Therapy is a one hour Hypnotherapy session.
Death Bed/Chair Therapy is helpful for:
1. Eradicating all unwanted feelings of guilt & fear
2. Coming to terms with a bereavement
3. Closure for issues with people passed on
4. Forgiveness & closure for issues with people causing current discomfort & stress
5. Achieving forgiveness for people who have hurt or harmed you
6. Achieving forgiveness of self
During the session you are given the option to disempower the person that is currently causing you distress, or that has caused distress in the past. If using this session to come to terms with a bereavement, you will simply allow the person in question to enter your awareness. You can confront them openly, say what you need to say, perhaps describe what they have done to you, and perhaps for you. A session also helpful when you feel you have left some things unsaid …
Closure and healing can be gained by safely confronting the person or issue and exploring what you really want to say to them in a safe environment, where they cannot hurt you, and can only respond if you invite them to.
Take one person and put them in that chair … that person can’t talk to you, touch you or get out of that chair … … all they can do is listen to you … tell them what they did … tell them the impact they had on your life …
In this session it’s possible to discover more deep emotions around the person or issue that you choose as the subject. As an example, a client whose father had died within that year, had thought before the chair therapy session, that she had forgiven her father for his being in her eyes, not a fantastic father. She thought she had done the work, spoken it through with counsellors, thought she had decided to forgive her father for mostly not being there for her, for hurting her and disrupting her life. HOWEVER in the trance during the session, when asked if she did forgive her father, she found herself tongue-tied … a mute response, which indicated that there was something that she still needed to forgive. So giving her the opportunity to re-think whether she forgave her father. Perhaps she had forgiven him for some but not all of his actions. Perhaps she could gain from not forgiving him for some things as a way of protection in her life going forward … if some actions are unforgivable she could and would avoid them later in life and not go though the pain he had put her through in the past.
Why forgive? Not forgiving is like taking poison yourself and expecting the other person to die. Do not try this at home … Forgiveness will make you feel absolutely terrific!
Take one person who hurt you the most and put them in that chair … that person can’t talk to you, touch you or get out of that chair … in fact they are tied down … all they can do is listen to you … tell them what they did … and how they upset you … tell them the impact they had on your life …
