Heal a Broken Heart


 

A broken heart is what has brought me to the amazing life that I have today. In the beginning I didn't know what to do or where to start, I only knew that it hurt and I had to move forward with my life. Don't worry about what others think, the problem is that we don't know where to begin the healing process.
Tips to get you on the correct path

What to bring:

• A broken heart
• Desire to heal/forgive
• An open mind

Step 1 Connect Find a quiet place where you will not be interrupted close your eyes take a few deep breaths. Connect to your Heart; spend time here with the YOU inside. Forgiveness is the most important thing you can do for yourself; first forgive yourself and then the other person, not condoning the act that was served you. Forgiveness allows you to be FREE. It frees you, your mind and your heart.

Step 2 Let it go Embrace the pain. Hold onto it for the last time as if a dear friend is leaving the country. Remember how it made you feel for the last time, feel the sadness, anger disappointment, and frustration. Once you let it go, you feel lighter/free it won't be able to come back. You are now in control of the outcome. Let it go like a small boat watch it float away. You are now beginning to healing. Another task to help is by writing a letter to this person expressing all our feelings, read it over and then burn it!!

Step 3 Forgiveness Once you have felt and said everything that you did not have an opportunity to say before, cut the cord to that person, imagine a thick piece of rope and cut it. This is letting go... (in your mind) look at that person in the eyes and say I forgive you and mean it, then give yourself a hug and say I forgive you. Forgiveness is the most important thing you can do for yourself; first forgive yourself and then the other person, not condoning the act that was served you. Forgiveness allows you to be FREE. It frees you, your mind and your heart.

Step 4 People come to our life for a reason Look at what you thought about the whole situation. For example: maybe you were taking it all for granted, he/she won't ever leave me because they love me, he/she knew I loved them, high expectations and so on. The part you probably didn't think of was that either way, they are human and everyone comes to our lives for a reason a season or a life time. Remember the good things, all that you shared and learned. The gift that person has been to you. It may take time to see or feel this, rest assured it will come.

Step 5 Love yourself Now it is time to focus on number one, YOU! Decide what is important. This is something we have not been taught, it is something we have to practice daily. No one else can love us unless we love ourselves FIRST.
