Summary

We each create so much unnecessary suffering for ourselves. We may not be able to prevent the feeling, but we do have the power to control our reaction to it.

We will all experience heartbreak at some point in our lives. People leave when we want them to stay. We feel rejected, abandoned. That fantasy of a future we had hoped for fallen to ruin. All our shame and insecurities, those worst things we think about ourselves now define our days. It’s a feeling unlike any other. Deciding whether to give into, to break or face up-to and move on through heartbreak is a choice we each must make.

Broken Hearted is a practical guide to help you better understand your emotions and to take that first step to a more aware and abundant life. In Broken Hearted: Embracing the Transformative Potential of Heartbreak you will discover:

  • The single most important thing you can do to immediately relieve the intensity of the pain you’re suffering
  • A deeper understanding of the complexity of your emotions
  • Why it is you feel what you feel and do what you do
  • The science behind why heartbreak influences your behavior in such crazy-making ways
  • How to develop perspective and strengthen the skill of awareness
  • Understanding how through clarity there is knowledge
  • Meditations and exercises specifically tailored to enable you to reassess your romantic priorities and what it is you want and need from the relationships in your life
  • Practical steps to break the cycle of trauma and devastation following the breakdown of relationships
  • Applying the skills of healing to accept and solve problems

This isn’t an audiobook only for those following the path of Buddhism, but rather one for the spiritually inclined. Those who wish to discover how to live and how to love with a little more awareness. Bringing together our collective combined knowledge of Zen wisdom, philosophy, psychology and simple life-led experience, it is universal and without judgment.

Objective and practical

It offers practical information on how to heal and grow following heartbreak. The rest is up to the individual to take it on board and choose to implement the advice. I gather it’s a slow and often painful process that promises healthy healing and personal development. Based on extensive research, it is beautifully read to transmit the messages.

We've all probably had our hearts broken at one point or another, either as a kid when your crush rejects you, or as an adult when a relationship comes to a humiliating and traumatic end. The books delves deep into the emotional scarring and offers practical and uplifting steps to heal your heart. Excellent reading.

this has helped me in a very dark time

a spiritual, very emotionally intelligent and comforting read. it's giving me strength grounding from a very toxic and trauma bonded relationship without feeling like a victim and my life is over even though all my body and mind are. very excellent reader, a lot of expression and sensitivity. the exercises and lens it uses help preserve the ideal of real love even in its very absence.

Nobody Deserves To Suffer Heartbreak

It is one of the worst feeling in the world to have your heartbroken. Sadly, it is a part of life that the majority of us will experience at least once. This audiobook contained some very heartening and practical steps to move along the journey from heartbreak to recovery. It is not a quick fix, however it is well written and easy to follow.

A wonderful book came with wonderful timing

I am a pretty resilient guy and bounce back very fast from most setbacks. I was in my mid-50s before I received a heartbreak which really hit me hard. I am ever so grateful for this book for the encouragement and help it gave me through a very difficult time. I still wheel it out now and then if I am struggling.

Deep listen

The author has done an amazing job in putting their knowledge into this audiobook. I learnt a lot about heart break and what happens to our brain when we go through such tragedies, and tips on how we can control our reactions to it. I really liked the chapter on The Purpose of Pain. The audiobook was full of gems, and was narrated in simple, easy to understand narration by Abraham George.

A gem!

Heartbreak can make you. This book shows you how. The tone is compassionate and the content is realistic so that the solutions are relatable across ages. I wish I had this book after my last relationship ended then I would have healed sooner, but I am grateful I listened to it now. Such a gem!
