When a relationship ends, the anguish and disappointment can be devastating. A broken heart is genuinely traumatic. Typical recommendations to keep busy, move on, repair your hidden flaws, and then forget about it may not be helpful. In this reading of her book, Susan Piver reveals that heartbreak actually creates an opportunity for genuine emotional and spiritual transformation, enabling you to emerge on the other side stronger, softer, and capable of loving with renewed confidence.

Story
Real heartbreak is unmistakable. We think of nothing else. We feel nothing else. We care about nothing else. Yet while we wouldn't expect someone to return to daily activities immediately after suffering a broken limb, heartbroken people are expected to function normally in their lives, despite the emotional pain they feel. Now psychologist Guy Winch imagines how different things would be if we paid more attention to this unique emotion - if only we can understand how heartbreak works, we can begin to fix it.

The book you weren’t ready to need
I didn’t know if I was ready to listen to this book. It’s been sitting in my “to read” shelf for about 6 weeks now. This book did the impossible for me. It took me on a journey from experiencing my own heart break, to better understanding the heart break of others, and finally to letting myself sit and feel all of these emotions without shame. Whether you think you are ready or not to read (or listen to) this book, trust me when I say that it WILL help you.

Lost Romance
Thank you Lodro!!! This was wonderful.
My heartbreak is that of a lost love. I know she is not mine and probably not even right for me but she was so much more to me in my life. I am moving on with my life but she remains in my head and heart... I still miss her so much. I downloaded the audible version and will be listening to it again. So much useful information. I have connected so much with my heartbreak and will continue to heal and be a better person. Howie
