Heartbreak Healer

Heartbreak Healer

By Evan Sanders


What if heartbreak was your best healer?

What if you actually took a little time to jump into that question? What if, rather than heartbreak being the thing that annihilated you, it actually helped create you?

These are hard questions to ask yourself. However, they really are stunningly rewarding. Many have had their hearts ripped out in some way or other and truthfully there is not any worse feeling that exists. You are feeling completely terrible for what seems to be a lifetime and the deep sensations of loss never really seem to go away. If we keep playing on the grand field of life, we're going to suffer the inevitable fact that our hearts will break from time to time.

But what if, when heartbreak comes to us, we allow it to show us where we actually need to do deep interpersonal work? How will we take the agony of loss and be able to create something beautiful with it?

I'm not advising that we should try to ascend above our discomfort, but rather as an alternative try and take our own agony and birth something positive and lovely out of it. It's a challenge not for the faint of heart, and yet at the same time one that would make an awesome difference when we are confronted with deep grief.

So the next time your heart breaks, see if you can take every bit of that pain inside and turn it into something else. Try writing, painting, speaking, or anything else that feels right to you. Express what's really within you instead of letting it eat you day by day. There's something beautiful about going through a time of great change and pain. Yes, it really does hurt, but maybe it is about your heart breaking open instead of breaking to pieces?

Just try it. You never know what may happen.
