How to Survive a Breakup

You’ve just broken up.  The relationship didnt survive.  You are heartbroken.

You need time. Breaking up is like grieving a death. You are grieving the vision of what you thought your future would be. Give yourself time -there is no magic number of weeks, months or even years to determine when you will be ready to move on.

Be nice to yourself, heal and fill up. Do things that you have always wanted to do that make you feel filled, and fulfilled.  Focus on what makes you feel good physically, emotionally and spiritually.  The investment you make in yourself will help you now and also in the future when you are ready to resurface. 

Remember, you cant pour from an empty pitcher.  This time is time you need to replenish.  Give yourself permission to take care and rest.
