Have you ever had your heart broken? I know I have and it felt like my whole world had come to an end. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat and I cried all the time. It took me years to get over my broken heart. But I made a lot of mistakes that kept the pain alive. If you don't want to suffer from the pain of a broken heart for years like I did, keep reading. I will reveal to you the tips I have learned for healing a broken heart.

The first thing you should do if you get your heart broken is allow yourself time to grieve. Let your emotions run the gamut. You will feel sad, anger, helpless and a ton of other emotions in a short period of time. Allow yourself a few days to cry and work through your emotions. After you have had your run of emotions you need to forgive your ex. That's right, get rid of the anger that you feel for your ex and forgive him or her. This may be the hardest thing you will ever do in your life. But if you don't forgive your ex and allow these negative feelings to dwell inside you, the only person you are hurting is yourself.

The next tip I have for you is learn how to love yourself. So your relationship failed. So what? It doesn't mean that you are not worthy of love. It doesn't mean that you are less of a person. It just means that it was not meant to be at this time in your life. Now take this time to enjoy life. Think about what makes you smile and do it. Engage in your favorite hobby. Work on your self image, both inside and out. When you learn to love yourself it shows and people will take notice. You will attract others to you. Who knows, you may even attract your ex back to you.

The third guideline to healing a broken heart is to be grateful for the people around you. Stop looking for the negative in the people around you and look for the positive. Be thankful for your friends and be even thankful for your ex. Breaking up should be considered a learning experience for you. Take the things you have cultured with you into your next relationship. This will help you grow emotionally and it will make future relationship stronger.

The last tip that I have for you is to provide to others. When you help others, you will have a feeling of peace like no other. Helping those less lucky than you can bring you a joy that can replace any sadness that may be left inside of you. When you give to others, you will be sanctified with more in return.

Going through a break up is not the end of the world. But it sure does feel like it. I wish I would have known these tips when I broke up with my first love. It would have saved me years of grieving and it would have helped me conquer my self esteem issues. These tips are just the beginning of a journey to self healing. But don't just take my word for it.
