With all the recent shocking events that have taken place globally due to the extreme natural forces of nature which, to be blunt, has been nothing short of devastating, I thought it might be interesting to talk about the subject of loss.
On an international scale big events and disasters hit the headlines for the world to see, yet devastation hits at anytime within our own localised world. Somebody somewhere is suffering loss at any given time universally without us even being aware.
The pain as a result of loss, otherwise known as grief, is a deep feeling of hurt and can be a pain so unbearable or so big it can manifest in an individual in various ways, some cultures are allowed to wail to demonstrate their pain and in other cultures to show ones feelings isn’t the done thing, therefore keeping it all inside transcending into a feeling of being unreal. When a person is showing their pain you know they are suffering and will ask for what they need or another will see the individual needing support to help them through such a time. But what about those who cannot express what they are feeling, how do you gauge that?
It is natural to feel loss and pain after losing a love or connection so deep but when does it become a point of concern when does it become a threat to your own life? As humans we have the ability to endure so much “keep calm and carry on” as it were. But what is the sticking point, what is the point when a human can no longer cope and bids for freedom into the unknown? As individuals we have freedom of choice, however certain responsibilities can stop us from making decisions that will affect others, but what happens when that alarm can’t be heard.
Pain is a necessary process for growth, however we live now in a society whereby feeling pain is no longer accepted we have to make it go away pronto. Medication, drinking, drugs and other forms of escapism are all immediate anti-dotes to suffering, not feeling, but what if something happens so big and you’re not used to that feeling therefore the mind/body cannot comprehend. Sometimes the shock of a loss can be so overwhelming that the person cannot tolerate the enormity of what has happened and hasn’t got a clue as to what to do to help them through the difficult time.
In my experience homeopathy has proved very helpful when dealing with issues of grief, new or from far in the past. There are remedies that can be used for acute and chronic states of grief and pain to either help the person deal with the enormity or to help resolve a loss that the individual finds hard to come to terms with therefore holding them back from living their life fully. However there is no universal remedy I can prescribe with regards to this topic, as dealing with the mental and emotional realm needs treating carefully with support, it is not a quick fix it is a process. Homeopathy can assist the person get through the process without suppressing what needs to be felt.
If you feel that homeopathy could be of help to you or you would like to know more information then please contact me.
