Dealing with Loss of Status

Loss of Status – Get some help adapting to this difficult life change with this gentle, permissive hypnosis session

Are you struggling to cope with a sense of loss of status?

Do you find yourself more adversely affected by changes in your circumstances than you expected?

We all tend to take our position in the social hierarchy, whatever we perceive it to be, very much for granted – until it slips. We don't mind it going in the other direction, raising our standing.

It's nice to feel we are ‘coming up in the world'. But when we feel, justifiably or not, that we have dropped a notch or two (or ten), it can deal us an almost physical blow. It hurts.

And this is not just our imaginations at work. Studies on primates who live in hierarchically organized societies similar to ours show that higher status improves general health and immunity.

And conversely, loss of status worsens health and weakens immunity, making you more likely to get sick. These are real impacts.

Loss of status affects your health and your emotional well being

What this means is that when our standing changes in a negative way, even when this is only in our own minds, rather than how others perceive us, we are both physically and emotionally affected.

So part of dealing with this change is giving ourselves time to adjust. And time to ‘grieve' for what we have (or think we have) lost.

But that's not the end of it.

‘Status' is a social and mental construct, not a fixed material ‘thing' out there in the world. We derive our sense of ourselves, our sense of self-respect, from many different sources.

It's true that we become accustomed to deriving our sense of status from certain specific sources, but if these are blocked we really can, after a time, find other sources to draw our status from.

So, painful as a loss of standing may be, you don't need to let it be the ‘end of the world'. And you can ease your way through this adjustment.
