I often wondered why God chose a Leap Year in which to take you. Today, I light a candle for you to burn all day. Today, I sit & reflect on how you would look as a man — tall, dark & handsome. Would you be quiet & reserve or witty & sarcastic. Today, I realize I’m still healing & grief really never goes away. Aubrey Alexander Mason I love you because you were & always will be my first true love. You live on through each of us. Your niece has your first name & your youngest brother has your middle name. I never questioned why you had to leave us but as I write this it still hurts & the tears continues to flow!!! #32yearsyoung #sidssucks https://www.instagram.com/p/B9J8llZJKx5/?igshid=23y7smzi6v2n

Julien got “in trouble” this morning for being mean to his brother. We have been making the boys lay down until they calm down and then “start over.” It is much better than fussing (even though that still happens- we are not perfect). Today I decided to practice my hypnotherapy on Julien. He is in therapy for unprocessed grief and trauma. However the therapist has not gotten to these things yet...so I decided to try myself. I did a short relaxation technique and then led into a script about grief. He did great. His eyes were open and he wiggled a bit, but he laid there and listened. In the hypnosis we created his very own special place. After the hypnosis he told me about it and we talked about how it is ok to talk about how he feels about Elijah’s death. He says he doesn’t know how to explain it. But the hypnosis did make him feel better and calmer. We talked about how he can now go to his special place any time he gets angry and allow himself to feel safe and calm. I told him the next few days we will continue to do the hypnotherapy and see if it helps open up these feelings he has about Elijah. Childhood trauma is best treated as a child. The symptoms are very similar to ADHD and can present in anger and anxiety—even in the sweetest children. If you feel like I can help you or your child with grief or deep rooted trauma with hypnotherapy, I would love to help. I offer more than just hypnotherapy, I can help provide other techniques to guide you through these difficult times. I can also be a listening ear. I am here to help. Please message me for details. Thank you. Sending you all so much love. #kellythoughts #elijahsfamily #pregnancyandinfantlossawareness #sidssucks #loveelijah #myjules #hypnotherapy #lifecoach #grief #griefsupport (at Natchitoches, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/BorTWWYBPgV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=147acdpyi02ru
