00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:09.800
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name's Jason Newland.

2
00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:16.079
Please only listen when you safely close your eyes and

3
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:20.640
loul Finnie has come to join us. Do you come

4
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.800
to join us? You come to love a little lie down,

5
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:33.039
little cuddle. Oh he's been asleep in bed for hours.

6
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:45.079
Here you have, and now you're doing big unions, doing bigions. Okay,

7
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:52.679
so I hope you heard. I'm doing big onions myself.

8
00:00:56.560 --> 00:01:03.840
So this is going to be a hypnosis recording for grief.

9
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:14.719
And mm hmm, you're being very vocal today. If you

10
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:34.560
are being very vocal unfortunately, And what I've just heard

11
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:41.359
is there is a cat in the garden making a

12
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:46.640
lot of noise. And I hope, well, the fact that

13
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.000
I've heard it, you'd think that Vinnie would hear it,

14
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.680
but his is are pricking up at the moment, so

15
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.920
I'm hoping he doesn't because once he really, you know,

16
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:08.240
locks into that sound, he will be barking. So this

17
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:14.680
is a recording about grief. It's called a place to

18
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:23.360
remember and reclaim. So you don't have to you don't

19
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:26.159
have to do anything, but you don't have to listen

20
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:32.199
closely to every word. I say. In fact, you may

21
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:41.800
even find that as you listen, and Vinnie is giving

22
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:44.319
me a lot of attention right now, for some reason,

23
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:53.080
as you listen, your mind drifts, drifts to other places,

24
00:02:55.080 --> 00:03:11.879
memories and sensation. And that's perfectly okay, because we're not

25
00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:19.719
here to force anything. You're just here to let some

26
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:38.719
part of you rest. Just rest now. I think Finny

27
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:42.240
has established that he's going to be making some of

28
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:46.599
his own little background sounds, So I'll tell you that

29
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.400
now in case you want to just turn the recording off,

30
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:56.159
because he seems to be very much intent on cleaning

31
00:03:56.240 --> 00:04:02.639
himself and being part of this recording, don't you. Yes,

32
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:13.800
you do, Yes, you do. I don't know why it

33
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:22.600
bears so gentle. It's because you're on your dinner. Hey,

34
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.920
it's nice to just rest. I love closing my eyes

35
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:42.000
and just letting go listening to something calming, peaceful, because

36
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:56.560
sometimes grief feels really heavy. I mean, it's like something

37
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:03.319
you carry around in your chest, or like a fog

38
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:13.800
that makes the world seem like a plane going past

39
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:27.439
in the background. It can feel like the world feels

40
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:38.720
that it's changed, something's changed in a way that never

41
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:48.800
quite be the same again. And in a way it

42
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:54.439
has changed. The world is changed. Your world has changed

43
00:05:55.360 --> 00:06:03.680
because that person that's lost, that has been a part

44
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:18.240
of your life, and now it'll just be memories. So

45
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:27.800
this is your time, a time not to fix anything,

46
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:43.480
not to forget anything, but to explore, explore some possibilities

47
00:06:47.920 --> 00:07:05.439
of remembering and gently reclaiming what's been lost in a

48
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:16.920
new way. Now, if you're not already lying or sitting

49
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:25.920
in a comfortable place, please go ahead and allow yourself

50
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:36.000
to adjust, maybe even sigh out the air from the lungs.

51
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:47.639
I do that quite a lot, Actually, sighing or yawning

52
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:54.800
seems to be quite a nice physical sensation of breathing out.

53
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:10.839
And then let your body soften, Let in your shoulders

54
00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:29.680
release just a little, all your hands grow heavier, and

55
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:36.919
you might notice the sensation of the surface supporting you.

56
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:46.399
Maybe it's your bed or chair, And just how little

57
00:08:46.559 --> 00:09:04.519
effort it actually takes to just be here now, in

58
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:15.200
this moment. And I don't know which part of you

59
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:25.759
will begin to relax first, but some part of you

60
00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:39.720
knows how to rest because you've done it before many

61
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:55.879
times without even trying. So if your eyes want to

62
00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:12.519
blink slower or close. You can allow that to happen

63
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:29.720
whenever it's ready, and there's the outside world fades into

64
00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:44.399
the background. I invite you to go inside, deep inside,

65
00:10:46.360 --> 00:11:08.519
to that quiet space we're feelings, images and memories can surface,

66
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:34.679
not forced, never rushed. And maybe as you imagine descending

67
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:52.120
a gentle staircase, going down with each step leading you

68
00:11:53.159 --> 00:12:10.080
a little do inside yourself. Or maybe you'd prefer imagining

69
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:32.320
a soft, winding path through a peaceful forest with birds

70
00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:44.960
on somewhere in the distance and filtered lights through the leaves.

71
00:12:53.200 --> 00:13:00.799
With each step you take, lea didn't you a little

72
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:25.559
deeper to that place within where change begins? And as

73
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:39.279
you continue long, you may find that you'll breathing deepens

74
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:59.360
almost on its own, if your body is saying finally,

75
00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:18.559
I can let go now. There's no right way to grief,

76
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:36.799
because grief is a shapeshifter. It can be quiet and

77
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:54.000
aching or loud and missy. He can calm and go

78
00:14:55.440 --> 00:15:14.919
like waves, or arrive when you least expect it. And

79
00:15:15.559 --> 00:15:25.159
perhaps there's part of you that's been trying to make

80
00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:40.320
sense of it, trying to hold on or let go

81
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:55.919
or both at the same time. That can be so exhausting,

82
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:10.480
can't it so tiring, and you don't need to resolve

83
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:23.919
anything right now, you don't even need to feel better.

84
00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:52.559
But maybe you could feel a little more held, a

85
00:16:52.600 --> 00:17:17.160
little more understood by yourself, looking after yourself, caring for yourself,

86
00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:40.440
supporting yourself. So I'd like to invite you to imagine

87
00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:56.839
a quiet, sacred place, a place only you know about.

88
00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:09.920
It could be a garden, a cottage by a lake,

89
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:27.240
a soft hill with tall grasses, or a small room

90
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:45.720
filled with light, orever you choose, Wherever you chose, this

91
00:18:46.119 --> 00:19:05.640
place is safe, it's private, it's peaceful, and it's a

92
00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:23.480
place where memory and presence can gently meet. You might

93
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:34.720
even sense a doorway appearing a threshold to this healing place.

94
00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:46.400
And as you cross it, you bring with you everything

95
00:19:46.759 --> 00:20:03.279
you need, everything you're ready to carry, and perhaps some

96
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:11.079
things you're ready to lay down. And maybe in this

97
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:17.480
special place you can invite the memory of the person

98
00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:27.160
you've lost, or the essence of them, not to explain

99
00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:41.039
and not to apologize, but just to be. You might

100
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:46.960
feel their presence in a chair across from you, or

101
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:55.200
sense a warmth, or remember a smile, a laugh, for look,

102
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:04.880
or even just feeling that they're near and there's no

103
00:21:05.079 --> 00:21:14.759
need to do anything more than that. Just be with them,

104
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:17.359
And there's no need to do anything more than that.

105
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:44.200
Just be with them as long as you like, and

106
00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:49.440
if it feels okay to do so. You could imagine

107
00:21:49.720 --> 00:22:00.039
having a conversation from the heart. Maybe you say the

108
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:06.319
words you didn't get to say, or maybe you hear

109
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:10.039
the words you wish that they had said to you,

110
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:29.480
because sometimes in trance we can allow those inner voices

111
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:46.240
to speak, the voices of love, of connection, of peace.

112
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.720
And I wonder what they would want for you right now?

113
00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:05.039
What would they hope you carry forward? What parts of

114
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:17.839
them live on in you? Perhaps they left you with

115
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:27.000
more than pain. Maybe they gave you a way of laughing,

116
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:40.839
or a favorite story, the strength you didn't know you'd need,

117
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:57.759
but now you have, And just for now, just for

118
00:23:57.880 --> 00:24:10.960
this moment, you might allow yourself to receive that, because

119
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:20.640
grief is not the end of love. Grief is what

120
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:30.720
love looks like when it loses its form. But love

121
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:44.799
doesn't disappear. It changes shape. And you may find that

122
00:24:45.000 --> 00:25:01.000
even now you're already carrying something forward, a legacy, a lesson,

123
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:15.759
a feeling that you'll return to again and again in dreams,

124
00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:37.960
in quiet mornings, in surprise, in moments of laughter. And

125
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:51.200
that doesn't mean forgetting, It means honoring. And you get

126
00:25:51.240 --> 00:26:00.359
to choose how you get to build a new relationship,

127
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:15.119
not with the body, but with the memory, the spirit,

128
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:29.599
the essence, And some part of you already knows how.

129
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:41.519
So now, just for a moment, I invite you to imagine,

130
00:26:43.119 --> 00:26:50.480
some time in the future, a day when the sharpest

131
00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:56.519
pain has softened, a day when the sun feels warm

132
00:26:57.240 --> 00:27:05.240
on your skin again, a moment when you find yourself

133
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:16.400
smiling and it doesn't feel like a betrayal. That day

134
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:26.759
might not be today, but it's coming, and maybe you

135
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:36.400
can even imagine what you'll be doing, who you'll be with,

136
00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:49.799
and how you'll feel, and how the memory of your

137
00:27:49.920 --> 00:28:01.880
loved one is still there, not as a wound, but

138
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:11.039
as a thread woven into the tapestry of your life.

139
00:28:11.839 --> 00:28:25.240
That's not letting go, that's taken them with you. So

140
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:32.720
as you begin to return, who can bring with you

141
00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:48.960
anything that's useful, any feelings of peace or clarity, or

142
00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:59.279
simply the knowing that you took this time for yourself.

143
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:10.000
And as you slowly return to the present moment, you

144
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:16.880
may notice the sounds around you, the feeling of the

145
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:24.640
chair or bed beneath you, and the air on your skin.

146
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:38.279
And in a moment, when you're ready, you can begin

147
00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:47.079
to stretch or wiggle your fingers and toes. Bring in

148
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:58.240
back with you whatever matters most, because something in you

149
00:29:58.400 --> 00:30:09.440
has shifted or maybe softened, and you did that, you

150
00:30:10.400 --> 00:30:24.440
allowed it, and now you can rejoin in the world

151
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:33.839
at your own pace. Bring in with you the memory

152
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:49.839
of love and the possibility of peace. Thank you for listening.

153
00:30:50.160 --> 00:30:56.759
Remember to be kind to yourself. It deserved to be

154
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:07.799
happy and be gentle with yourself. You deserved to feel safe.

155
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:21.000
Lots of Love by
