Getting Over Breakups and Broken Hearts

Published: Dec. 1, 2020, 8 a.m.

We will learn: How the story you’re attaching to your breakup makes it that much more painful The difference between feeling your emotions and feeding them How to set a new standard for love Why is it that breakups hurt so badly?  We have a tendency to base our value on feedback from the outside world so rejection in a relationship can feel like rejection of who we are… rather than for what it is… just simply incompatibility. Breakups can feel like more than just losing a partner, it can feel like you’re losing your friends, your routine, the future you’ve been imagining, maybe your identity, and sometimes, even your living space or your dog or whatever you’ve shared together. So how do you start pulling yourself together when you just feel like a broken mess? And how do you make sure that each relationship is a stepping stone to something better, rather than just repeating the same mistakes over and over again? That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Amy Chan. Amy Chan is the Founder of Renew Breakup Bootcamp, a retreat that takes a scientific and spiritual approach to healing the heart. And her book, Breakup Bootcamp - The Science of Rewiring Your Heart was just released today! Show Notes: mindlove.com/158 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
