Dear Lucy,

I helped a friend a few weeks ago who had lost her son with ET. She was very worried it would make her forget him or love him less. I aksed her where the pain was in her body, she said it was in her chest, hard + burning + cold at the same time. I asked her if her son wanted her to have this pain. She said no he always wanted me to be happy. I said to move a little bit of the pain just so it is more comfortable and so thinking about her son isn't only about pain and she said yes. Afterwards she felt a lot better and was very relieved. She remembered a happy time with her son. She was very grateful. She tolds me when she feels bad she puts her hand on where it hurts and thinks of the happy time, it helps with the pain. She is very grateful that she can think about her son remember the love not the pain.

Katie

Hi Sandra,
Thats sounds very similar to the experience I had as well.
I wonder what happens if someone uses ET when they have lost someone
much closer to them and if they would be ready to even try to help
their grief. Through this experience, I have noticed that people
seem to need the grief and hold on to it in some way. I would be
very cautious about offering a grief stricken person help, in case
they feel cheated afterwards. I know that sounds wierd but do you
understand what I mean?

was that my experience of this time was sacred graceful and loving,
which allowed me to hold that energyfor my family.

with your desire to help them through such times, it is absolutely
possible to transform even this kind of intense experience, in the
moment, or afterwards, to reach the space of peace and acceptance and
love. This was not a very close relationship for me, but it was still
significant and it taught me alot. I dont doubt for amoment that a
losing closer relationship would be a much bigger energy to handle,
but still handleable nevertheless.
