Summary
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 is required listening.
To do something special for my Love.Life members, I invited the one and only Guy Winch (@GuyWinch) 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 episode 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.
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.

| 1:07.7 | strategy after heartbreak and the mistakes lots of people make when they're in this position, |
| 1:14.4 | particularly on the topic of overthinking, healing from pain, deciding whether it's best to |
| 1:21.4 | try and distract yourself or to analyse and deconstruct that relationship and look at what went wrong |
