Are you hurting?

Is that hurt leading to overthinking? Rumination? A downward spiral of negative self-talk?

Do you feel trapped inside your own head, desperate for some relief, and anxious for the time to come when you will finally feel better?

If so, this video is required watching. To do something special for my Love.Life members, I invited the one and only Guy Winch on for a special hour to help people overcome pain and hurt. Guy Winch is one of the world’s foremost experts on dealing with heartbreak and “emotional first-aid.”

This video is a special moment taken from that hour where Guy talks about how to deal with moments of terrible pain in a productive and healthy way.

One of the really powerful distinctions Guy makes in this video is the difference between productive and obsessive thinking.

As Rainer Maria Rilke said: “No feeling is final.” If you’re hurting right now, it’s going to get better. I promise.

One step at a time.

The hardest thing when your are heartbroken is trying to stay busy and happy knowing you still hurting

Having been broken up with after a year of genuine mutual love, half a year ago, I can say: it gets easier. I was at a point I thought I'd never reach, and now I feel powerful and enjoy life again. It will get easier I promise!! Everyone has his or her own pace, remember that! <3 stay strong

It hurts when the person you love and want more then anything doesn't want you back 💔

I’m fuckin lost right now. Feel like my world has been flipped completely upside down, can’t enjoy anything because it all reminds me of her, shared so much of what I loved and my hobbies and now all they do is bring up memories of her.

The hardest thing about healing is thinking that something external is why you're hurting. Once you realize that your pain isn't because of someone else or something else and it's actually just telling you how much YOU loved and how compassionate YOU are... you realize that you're hurting because you have a strong caring heart. Instead of focusing on the lost connections... Focus on building new ones!

You're pain comes from your broken connection, because you care... Once you build connections with other things and other people you feel a million times better. Go rock climbing, start a book club, feed the homeless... anything. Trust me, just keep being compassionate and that loss will become insignificant.

Nothing truly prepares you for the pain of a break up ... but you do come though, with better clarity. Be your own best friend 😘 thank you Matthew ... as always 🤗

Dated for weeks I fell head over heels. Suddenly his texts stop and his last reply was distant and I felt he was shoving me off. I have no answer as to why the sudden distancing and no closure. I can’t get him out of my head it’s been a month. I’m holding strong and not chasing/texting him. Why does it have to be this hard!!

[emmatonge]

He didn’t just break my heart, he has broken my soul 😪

[NosarNaresar]

Thank you Matthew. My GF broke up with me 3 Weeks ago. Your videos about self love really helped me through the last weeks.
Thank you so much. Everything will be fine.
Stay healthy Best wishes from Germany

I’m trying to heal, but as soon as I start feeling better he decides to show up at my work with his now pregnant girlfriend. I don’t care that she’s pregnant, I don’t care that she’s even there. Just knowing that HE is at my work, whether with her or by himself, makes me feel so anxious and sick, I don’t even have to be at work, I just have to be told and I get into those feelings. The cycle to feel better starts over.

30 years together, this pain is slowly killing me.

[writerchick]

[sanamfeiz]

It’s so true. But you didn’t mention how to get out of this loop of harmful thoughts!! I hope you cover this topic in your future videos

[isabellhaugen]

Just ended my relationship because my boyfriend didn’t prioritize me or show any affection or care when I needed him.. I am madly in love with the guy and I’ve tried everything. I told him he needed to fight for me and show love for me if he wanted to continue. He didn’t respond and I haven’t heard from him since. It’s truly Heartbreaking. I hope i will be able to move on and let this go. Praying for everyone who find themselves lost in a situation like this❤️🤞

[aidafelix]
