3 STEPS and a HELP SQUAD
ARE LOVE ISSUES WEIGHING YOU DOWN?
"Once you meet yourself and truly love yourself, then you attract that" is reported as said by actress JENNIFER ANISTON, star of notable movies He’s Not That Into You, The Breakup with Vince Vaughn, Friends with Money, The Good Girl, and Horrible Bosses.
In her personal life, Jennifer Aniston has had her fair share of public breakups, and each time she has kept her comedic smarts intact. We follow in her footsteps ...
Only within the last decade has Broken Heart Syndrome been recognized as a medical diagnosis. Women in their 20s up into their 80s have fallen prey, and the condition can strike even if you are healthy. Experts claim emotional stress activates the same areas of the brain as physical pain with an overwhelm that necessitates a different type of treatment.
As described on Web MD, heartbreak syndrome can be triggered by stressful events that can stem anywhere from a car breaking down to a bankruptcy filed. As we know, romantic shakeups cause love issues, family dysfunction causes life issues; and employment conflicts cause work issues. Those work issues can then cause romantic shakeups, which in turn can cause family dysfunction and a breakup cycle begins.
To date, products and services for breakup recovery have only been in the romantic arena. However, in connectedness, we might get to the heart of the matter. Relationship therapists, family experts, and business coaches populate the self-help industry in their respective categories but provide little holistically to those who break up often in love, life, and at work.
An integrated approach has not been found practiced until now.
As the creator of THE BREAK-UP BIZ™ (see credentials), I, too, have scratched the itchiness a breakup brings. Until now, my life had been a series of Jennifer Aniston movies.
On my journey traveling out from under where shedding emotional weight was hard to do, I developed a new type of ‘dietary’ tale. Like Aniston, I’d had my fair share of breakups but if I had to go through one again, the outcome, I found, might have an upswing.
Within the first month of every breakup, I started to notice that I instantly lost ten pounds without thought or effort as if shedding the experience was meant. Not many diet programs like Weight Watchers nor Nutrisystem can deliver such an instant rate of return.
I had not invested in diets before but, the rollercoaster of weight fluctuation led me to a phenomenon noted by experts as a 'breakup diet,' where one can experience drastic changes in appetite when going through the throes of a breakup.
Under duress, our bodies create additional adrenaline, resulting in elevated cortisol levels that lead to depression of immune responses, increased fat accumulation, and even loss of cognitive function.
The list goes on and on … so much so I turned the breakup malady into a breakup remedy to provide a support system with help available anytime, anywhere on iPhones, IPads, and desktops that tune in way past the expiration of any breakup - when everyone is over your breakup but you!
BREAK-UP DIETS® have since become today's newest way to shed emotional weight so breaking up doesn't have to weigh you down©. Our 'dietary' tale is quirky and silly but our programs are serious and straight to the heart as you will find revealed throughout THE BREAK-UP BIZ™ experience. But first, tackle the 10-day cleanse that started them all ...
DAY 1: Think of coffee as your new comfort food! Soon after breaking up with my boyfriend of one year, coffee became my best friend. It gave me something to look forward to in the mornings when I didn’t have him to wake up to. This was when my love affair with Java began and my memories of him started to fade.
DAY 2: The time I spent with Java kept me up late and sleep deprived, which, to my surprise, significantly numbed the pain, making it easier to get through my work day without tears. It was a vicious cycle, but truth be told, being comatose took the edge off the pain. I was so angry about the breakup that I wouldn’t have been able to sleep anyway.
DAY 3: Forget about taking years to delve into childhood issues as to why this relationship didn’t work! A good psychic friend provided me with the optimism that another man was just around the corner. Whatever it takes to get through those emotional first few days and months is worth every penny whether you believe in the spiritual world or not.
DAY 4: Determination to move on to a brighter future was my driving force, and every time I went back down memory lane, I asked friends to leave messages on my phone with nasty reminders of why my life is now much better with him not in it. Thanks to good friends, I never had a desire to speak with him again.
DAY 5: Cutting off communication I knew from various advice books was a necessary evil to speed up the healing process. I viewed the situation as if I was quitting cigarettes or, heaven help me, my beloved Java. I needed to go cold turkey, and I knew that if I didn’t do these things, I would continue to be further and further away from meeting a more suitable man.
DAY 6: I didn’t want any reminders of what was or what could have been, nor anything that might motivate me to want him back, so that meant creating new decor out of items that reminded me of us – the cute photos from our first vacation together, the sexy panties with his name on it that I had engraved for Valentine’s Day, with of course, the jewelry he had given me all now out of fashion. The ritual of throwing things away helped me to regain my home as mine.
DAY 7: Reminding myself each day that I’d feel a bit better today than yesterday, and tomorrow even more so, was a trick I knew would eventually prove fruitful. I had seen it work for a friend of mine, so I knew this mantra had potential to help me too. Once I surrendered to this notion, the crying lessened and my alone time started to become more about me than what had been when I was a “we.”
DAY 8: When the weak moments overwhelmed me, I invested in none other than a manicure with gels to boot. My new nails gave me a renewed sense of femininity and an affordable new hobby. Whomever said diamonds were a girl’s best friend had never been to a spa! When funds were low, a warm bubbly bath or a long walk around the block also did the trick. I just needed pampering and self-care.
DAY 9: Instead of dwelling on what I had lost, I diverted my energies to becoming highly productive in other areas in my life. I wrote my first magazine article, created my first website, and developed new business opportunities. The more I did things to better myself, the more I got used to being with just me again. And I liked hanging out with me! My friends did too!
