• Our thoughts and feelings, as well as the stories we tell ourselves, often contribute to the difficulty of getting over a breakup. [02:28]
• Focus on the easy aspects of your life, rather than dwelling on the hardship of the breakup. [05:40] 
• Find a new "linchpin" sentence that reframes the breakup in a more positive light, such as viewing it as the right decision or an opportunity for personal growth. [10:08]

• Thinking about an ex-partner is a normal and common experience after a breakup, as the brain prioritizes storing emotionally-charged information. [06:28]
• Instead of trying to stop thinking about an ex, the focus should be on neutralizing those associations and creating new positive memories. [09:10]
• Bringing self-compassion and kindness to oneself during the healing process is crucial.
• It's possible to hold two seemingly contradictory thoughts at the same time, such as missing an ex while also knowing that being together is not the right thing. [17:46]
• Experimenting with small triggers or activities associated with an ex and rewiring them with new positive experiences can help the brain create new associations.

If this resonates, head to www.forgetyourexnow.com to book a consultation call with Sarah to go deeper into rewiring your brain for your own success.

• I was deeply hurt and resentful towards my ex-partner for years after he cheated on me, even though I was in a new relationship. [05:52]
• I held onto this resentment for 8 years, which ate away at me and made it difficult to be normal around my ex. [04:06]
• Eventually, my ex reached out to apologize, which triggered a flood of emotions. [09:45] However, I processed these emotions fully, letting them out instead of suppressing them. [12:00]
• After this emotional release, I felt a sense of clarity and no longer harbored resentment towards my ex. [13:32] I could see him in a neutral, friendly way, reclaiming my personal power.
• This story is to encourage others who may be struggling with similar feelings of resentment towards an ex, emphasizing the importance of fully processing emotions rather than holding onto them.
