Coping with Change

If things didn’t change the world would stagnate and life would become very boring!

Change can mean so many things to so many people and it is inevitable at many points of our lives.

There is often a sense of loss or bereavement surrounding change. Progressing in age from child to Teen to adult and through the aging process. Things around us change; jobs, people, relationships etc. Coping with change can encompass dealing with illness and disability, death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, loss of a pet, redundancy, all these things can put a strain on our well being and evolve into stress, anxiety and eventually depression.

But positive change; promotion, marriage, new relationship, a baby may be, all these so called happy occasions can creep up on us and cause us to be unsure, uncertain and lead to anxiety and stress and a feeling of guilt for feeling this way.

These are areas that Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is very good at dealing with. By changing our perspective on events that are often beyond our control we can begin to see the good side, the light rather than the dark.

The glass half full rather than half empty . By changing your mental attitude towards change you can move forward in life more positively and more at ease knowing that you can deal with anything that life has to throw at you. Recognising what you can influence, and what you can’t, and coming to accept this.

Often you can’t change the environment around you but with a little help you may see the good and make the most of what you have.
