Time to Be is a form of talking therapy that differs from traditional counselling, offering a gentle way of exploring feelings and developing ways to cope. The service is available to all Hospice in the Weald patients, and those important to them, who wish to use it at any point during their bereavement journey. Read on to find out a little more…
Time to Be involves supporting you in finding your own ways to cope with, and talk about, emotions and bereavement. One of its aims is to help you to use the space and skills taught to try and find inner peace, calm and hopefully achieve a level of acceptance and self-realisation, at home or whenever you might need it.
A team of dedicated, trained volunteers deliver Time to Be. The sessions include conversation and methods of relaxation, such as guided imagery, co-meditation, anchoring, basic breathing techniques and exploring silence. The focus is to provide guidance and space to develop and enhance things such as coping skills and calming practices. We want you to feel empowered to develop your own coping strategies that you can call upon when needed, whenever and wherever you are.
We encourage early involvement, meaning you can contact us when it feels right for you. The sessions aim to help you achieve a sense of balance and wellbeing in a non-judgemental way. This can be beneficial at all stages of your journey, especially early on.
