Quotes from this episode:

“Don’t get hung up on letting your ex know the impact of their words or actions. It is done with. It is not important to have the last word.”

“Blaming yourself keeps you trapped. Learn to forgive yourself. Commit to moving on. Commit to learning from this experience rather than torturing yourself over it.”

“Rumination causes us to identify with our thoughts. When we ruminate over painful words we start to think that they are true.”

“Our thoughts are not our reality. They are just thoughts.”

“Do you love yourself enough to set yourself free by releasing this person?”

“Repeating words outloud causes us to identify with them more and more and more. The words that were spoken to you were negative and hurtful. Repeating them spreads that negativity. It gives fuel to them. It keeps them in your system rather than allowing them to start to leave your system.”
