Ending a relationship is incredibly difficult no matter the reasons. The end of a relationship spells the end of a period in your life, so you are mourning not only the loss of your companionship but also of the end of a path you were on and a part of your life. Being able to move beyond this pain and embrace the new path you are on is difficult but can be done. Below, we offer some advice on methods to help you get over your break up.
3Sleep it off
Sleep is the most important thing you can give to your stressed mind and body. There’s nothing more replenishing to your body than quality sleep. Lack of sleep can cause you to feel groggy, emotionally unstable and prone to anger and sadness, which you won’t need any more of on top of your break up.
If you are having trouble going to sleep because of your spiralling, punishing thoughts, try to keep a ritual surrounding your bedtime. Light a candle, meditate and relax and drink a cup of tea. Another great method is to keep a journal by your bed, write down your anxieties and imagine them flowing out of you and onto the paper.
