After the Storm: How to Heal From a Traumatic Breakup
A mind, body, and soul guide to becoming a better you after a big life change
Nine years ago, I had escaped from the most emotionally draining relationship I’ve ever experienced. I was 26-years-old and felt like I was 80-years-old. My body and mind were exhausted, my heart was hurting.
I was drained from self-sacrificing and tired from trying to make something work that would never function in a healthy way.
My turning point came slowly, I never hit a “rock bottom”. Instead, I continued nurturing myself spiritually and physically until I dropped my bad habits.
10 years later, I have a thriving marriage and a beautiful family who loves me.
I found my happy place, but it didn’t fall into my lap, I made it happen by living well and attracting good things into my life.
Why do we feel so shaken up after a breakup?
After a breakup, we experience so many emotions: Grief, sadness, anger, shock, and even relief.
People handle these emotions differently. Ironically, the first thing most people do after trauma is self-destructive. For some reason, we are punishing ourselves for the pain we feel.
