Breakups are the worst, especially if you are still emotionally attached to THAT person. Sleepless nights, countless tissue boxes, it seems like your world has ended. Do you want to move on ASAP? Here are some hacks that you could choose and modify to get out of your heartbreak rut and start working on self-love:
#1 Plan ahead
Fill your calendar with fun-filled activities and spend time with people that make you happy and are supportive of your need to just focus on having fun!
#2 Laugh, laugh, laugh!
Pack your time with friends, shows, activities, places that bring out the child in you. Celebrate life! Find humor in most things! Life is too short to take yourself too seriously!
#3 Wear happy colors
Bright orange, yellow, red, pastels! Wear that red lipstick and pink blush you usually stray away from and color your days with hues that make you happy.
#4 Create a playlist that makes you happy
Play these scores while you’re caught in traffic or just need to pass the time. Nothing like great rhythm to bring that skip back into your step.
#5 Plan meals, desserts and drinks that make you happy
Eat food that brings you back to happy memories and great times with family and friends.
#6 Create new routines that bring new energy for your day
Take routes to school and work that you wouldn’t naturally take to see a different part of the city and other attractions you wouldn’t normally see.
#7 Learn more about yourself and develop a deeper appreciation of who you are and what you can do
Read up on some books that would inspire you to be a better person-and lover!
#8 Sign up for a makeover with a stylist or a stylish friend
Change your hairstyle, your usual clothes or shoes, change your glasses or your shades. New looks provide new energy and allow you to get to know a new you. Get a makeover of your inner self too by attending personal development workshops.
