10 things you can do alone ⬇️
After a breakup, slowly re-find your own path and stand strong in who you are. Rediscover what you like to do without feeling that you can’t do these things. And some of these ideas help you to heal too.
1. Find a quiet, comfortable space, and write in a journal about your ex. Don’t hold back. Let it flow to release the pain inside.
2. Go to your local leisure club and sign up for a class that you have never taken before.
3. Switch your mobile off. Sit in silence for 10 minutes without wanting to numb, fix or ignore the feelings arising inside.
4. Go for a walk in the woods, by the sea, in the hills and valleys, a city park or even scrap-land. Notice the variety of shapes, sizes and colour, which soothes the mind.
5. Call a family member or a good friend. Not a message or an email—but an actual phone call.
6. Go to the cinema by yourself. Pre-book the tickets so you don’t have to queue alone and get lost in the cinematic experience.
7. Write a letter to your ex that YOU WILL NOT SEND. Tell him/her exactly how you feel about the breakup. Afterwards, burn your letter in a safe space.
8. Go for a meal to eat solo. Stay present. Resist the temptation to scroll through social media or rush your meal.
9. At home, turn the music up loud and dance with total freedom.
10. Bake a cake and share it with those who are supporting you.
