Description:
What can we do for dying people and their families in addition to palliative care? What is helpful to communicate during the last hours of life?
In this workshop we bring integrate the millennium-old pictorial traditions of religion with techniques of hypnotherapy including pacing and leading, utilizing metaphors, and the evocation of values and convictions of dying patients with their families.
Using case examples, we will explore how hypnotherapeutic and spiritual support can be combined to meet the emotional and somatic needs of patients – even in non-religious contexts and by non-religious staff for patients without any identified religious background.
We will discuss and practice techniques for communication, developing rapport, and building metaphors with patients who are unable to speak or clearly show their needs.
