Let it Go!
Breakups can often leave us with heavy, painful feelings, and with a desire to change in order to move forward after the end of the relationship. Moving forward involves identifying the painful emotions or thoughts and labeling what we prefer to feel or think. In this exercise, try to list 2-3 feelings or thoughts that you can change or let go of in your personal life, then try to list 2-3 feelings or thoughts that you would want to have instead.
Sample Response:
1. I want to let go of the hurt, resentment and sadness that I currently feel from my recent breakup
2. I want to experience peace, happiness and self-love.

Thank you for sharing this. It's true that breakups hurt a lot but like you mentioned, it's about looking forward to better things and happiness :)

Sometimes we still feel upset after a breakup, which is completely normal. It can be hard to let go of the memories. Time will help us heal. I think going out, meeting friends, and trying to find hobbies can be helpful as well. It is not easy, but you can grow and change a lot, most of the time for the better.
I want to let go of: Frustration, anxiety, tension, sleepless nights, and feeling misunderstood.
I welcome a future with: good sleep, good connections, feeling like I've made the right decision.

Voglio lasciare andare la paura, tristezza e dolore che mi ha lasciato una persona molto importante dandomi le spalle, perché la vita ha delle belle cose da offrire.
I want to let go of:
“I could’ve fixed this.”
”I can’t love anyone else.”
”If I don’t stay angry, I’m undervaluing myself.”
I want to internalize:
”Going our separate ways is best for both of us.”
”I deserve to be happy.”
