Are you hurting?
Is that hurt leading to overthinking? Rumination? A downward spiral of negative self-talk?
Do you feel trapped inside your own head, desperate for some relief, and anxious for the time to come when you will finally feel better?
If so, this video is required watching. To do something special for my Love.Life members, I invited the one and only Guy Winch on for a special hour to help people overcome pain and hurt. Guy Winch is one of the world’s foremost experts on dealing with heartbreak and “emotional first-aid.”
This video is a special moment taken from that hour where Guy talks about how to deal with moments of terrible pain in a productive and healthy way.
One of the really powerful distinctions Guy makes in this video is the difference between productive and obsessive thinking.
As Rainer Maria Rilke said: “No feeling is final.” If you’re hurting right now, it’s going to get better. I promise.
One step at a time.
