Healing A Broken Heart And Enjoying Life Over Again

By Nikki Frost

When healing a broken heart, you need to accept that change in our relationships and in our lives is as inevitable as the sun rising in the morning and setting in the evening. Most of us go through one or several breakups or lose our partner during our lifetime.

The break can be very painful, so here are 4 steps to heal a broken heart and embrace change in your life.

1- Come to terms with Realities.

When healing a broken heart after significant hurtful life events it's easy to pretend that nothing has happened rather than embracing the change and moving on.

Susan resisted the idea of divorce, and would do anything to keep her marriage together. Her husband, unfortunately, who didn't believe in therapy, and was tired of the constant therapy, was in favor of a divorce. Instead of breaking away from a partner who did not believe in the bond of marriage with her, Susan foolishly held on to it.

We're not at all suggesting that leaving a relationship or giving up on a relationship is always the best thing to do. In fact, we are great proponents of hope and revitalizing relationships. We're simply pointing out that this woman seemed to not see the "writing on the wall" and to accept his wishes and this change in her life.

2. Learn from what happened

In order to heal your broken heart, you will need to view every relationship and breakup as an experience to be learned from. We should take lesson from other's experiences that frequently people get separated from their lover just for not being in touch and if any such thing happens we should be prepared to accept the truth. Following these steps will either win your ex back and or help you be a better person for your next partner.

3 - Be grateful for what happened.

To be capable of healing a broken heart, try to grateful for everything that happens in your life. Understand that you are who you are today, as a result of your friends, family and past lovers, your experiences, and the stories that have impacted your life.

A number of people have learned that showing gratitude helped in healing a broken heart after a dramatic breakup changed their lives.

4 - Look at the present and decide where you want to be in the future.

Whether you are in an unhappy relationship and want to make it work, or going through a breakup, you need to take the time to decide what you really want in life. Ask yourself: "What is one small step I can take now that will help me get to where I want to be?" Once you know what that step is, do it and you will find it easier in healing a broken heart and moving towards a brighter future.

We all experience change in our lives and we hope that some of these suggestions for healing a broken heart are helpful to you as you too begin to open more to possibilities and to love. - 30535
