The Kintsugi Method: Healing After Narcissistic Abuse
Nine guided hypnosis sessions to help you rebuild your self-worth, loosen the trauma bond and trust yourself again. Listen at home, at your own pace.
Main description
What broke you does not get the final word.
Kintsugi is the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold. The cracks are not hidden. They are traced in gold and become the most beautiful part of the piece.
If you have been through a relationship with a narcissist, you may be left doubting your memory, your worth and your right to say no. The Kintsugi Method is a series of clinical hypnosis sessions created by award-winning psychotherapist James Holmes to help you put the pieces back together on your own terms.
What’s included
Session 1, Rise Again: reclaiming your self-worth
Session 2, Cutting the Chains: freedom from the trauma bond
Session 3, The Voice Within: trusting yourself again
Session 4, The Shield of Strength: building safe boundaries
Session 5, Lightness of Being: releasing shame and guilt
Session 6, The Inner Child’s Garden: healing old wounds
Session 7, Quieting the Storm: deep emotional calm
Session 8, Unbreakable: stepping into your true power
Bonus, Your Perfect Day: a calming session to return to whenever you need a lift
That’s over 100 minutes of guided hypnosis in total.
How it works
Listen in the Kintsugi app on your phone, tablet or computer
Each session saves your place, so you can pick up where you left off
Save sessions to your device to listen without a signal
Watch your progress grow as each completed session mends a crack in gold
Who it’s for
Anyone recovering from a controlling or emotionally abusive relationship, whether with a partner, parent, friend or employer
People who feel stuck in self-doubt, guilt or a pull back towards someone who hurt them
Anyone who wants calm, practical support alongside, or before, working with a therapist
