First aid for heartbreak

Sleepless nights, crying your eyes out, and walking around like a zombie: heartbreak is one of the worst things you can experience. Is there an ‘ideal’ way to get through the rough period? Not really. But with these tips, you can ease the sharpest pain. Breathe in, breathe out.

1. Out of sight = out of mind
It can feel like a depression. Kicking a drug addiction. People can literally become sick from heartbreak. And as awful as it sounds, the pain slowly subsides. If you keep seeking each other out – even on social media – you keep giving yourself a new shot that you need to detox from. Only when you truly no longer see each other can you focus on yourself.

3. Reverse psychology
You might not be waiting for it, but it really works and you want things that actually work now. So, talk positively. Cry it out with that friend over a glass of wine and then write down all the positive things about the fact that you are apart. No more fights over that insignificant ex. Finally, you can take that world trip you’ve wanted to take for so long. Get that dog he or she was against. Those annoying birthdays at your in-laws are a thing of the past. Do this for three days, write everything down, and you will see: slowly you will start to think a little less negatively. And every little bit is welcome at this moment.

Give yourself time to heal wounds, be extra kind to your body, book that expensive massage that doesn’t really make sense, and invest fully in yourself. Go for a walk with your friend, take a warm bath in the evening, and eat healthily. But also: if you feel like that tub of Cookie Dough ice cream, just do it. But definitely also exercise, as it has a proven positive effect on depression.

It’s so exciting to go outside for the first time with the little one. You definitely take way too much with you: ten pairs of diapers, six muslin cloths, an extra set of clothes; all for that little block around the block, but you never know what to expect. Our Joolz Geo3 is really made to carry a lot: the basket underneath can hold 15 kilos of stuff alone, and then you also have plenty of space on the handle to hang everything. That little block around the block was quickly replaced by all of Amsterdam, a day at the beach, a walk in the woods, and a weekend towards Brabant where my boyfriend's family lives. During that cozy weekend, Wolf also slept in the
Staying at home doesn’t make the luduvudu feeling any better. And I don’t mean fully on the hunt for a new love, but rather spending time with your friends and family during this time. Develop yourself, rediscover your own character, try new things, make new memories. You will see that your heart slowly starts to heal.
