Download or read book Healing A Broken Heart written by Sarah La Saulle and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of a love is a nearly universal emotional crisis, whether the end is divorce, desertion, or a mutually agreed-upon separation. At first, friends and family are there to offer a shoulder to cry on, but after a few months there's an expectation that we just need to get over the crisis and move on. Thus, unprocessed, painful feelings are buried, leaving us numb. Or we repeat damaging relationship patterns over and over again. The situation doesn't have to be like that. Healing a Broken Heart guides those of us grieving for a lost love through four metaphorical seasons of recovery with provocative questions -- and journal pages on which to respond -- to help move us forward. The four seasons serve as powerful metaphors for the stages of the grieving process. Summer is the season for charting the course of a relationship: remembering hopes and expectations, the warning signs that went unheeded. During autumn, journalers accept the reality of breaking up and acknowledge things about the relationship that didn't serve their needs. Winter brings the pain of grief over the profound loss. Finally, spring -- and, with it, renewal -- invites readers to examine and understand how their family history may have affected their past relationships. Punctuated throughout with poems and moving meditations, the thoughtful, interactive approach of this book offers the time and space we all need to heal when our hearts are broken.

Download or read book Healing Hurts written by Linda Kennedy and published by Intelligent Design Press. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sure to give hope and courage to everyone, no matter where one may be in life's unpredictable journey. -Laura Magnin McDonald, MA, LPC, Co-founder of Christian Insight for Life Pain, suffering, grief and tears. Have you had days when it feels like the pain is never going away? Days when you wonder whether you'll ever feel normal again? Times when tears stream down your face nonstop? Drawing from her own experiences and seasons of grief, Linda Kennedy turns to Scripture to find meaning-and hope-amidst the pain. Like Job, you may find people telling you why things are happening to you as they are, but how can they really understand? How did Job respond, and what can we learn to help us through the confusion and doubt of our own pain? Joseph was betrayed time and again, leading to his slavery and unjust imprisonment. How did his dependence on God carry him through the darkest nights? Seasoned with modern-day examples from inspiring people like Joni Erickson Tada and Amy Carmichael, Healing Hurts will carry you gently, show you that you're not alone, and guide you to the One who can make sense of it all. Succinct chapters packed with Scripture, each concluded with thought-provoking reflection questions, make Healing Hurts an excellent resource for personal study or for small groups, support groups, and one-on-one discipleship mentoring. --- Excerpt from the Introduction: I definitely have had days when it feels like the pain will never go away. The minutes and the hours drag by at a snail's pace. I start to wonder if I will ever feel okay again. And then I look around at other people I know who are smiling and acting like they don't have a care in the world. And I start judging them-even though I really may not know them well at all. Why does it always seem like nothing bad ever happens to them? As if I know what's really going on in their lives ... Sometimes life just seems, well, cruel. You feel like every time you turn around more bad news hits. You make it through a severe illness and then you lose your job. Your mother comes to know the Lord and then your sister's child ends up getting killed. You finally reach retirement where you feel comfortable in your investments and the bottom falls out of the stock market. You and your husband finally are able to have children, and then you have a child that's disabled. Why me? But let me tell you, my friends, there is indeed hope. Because of the trials my husband and I have gone through, I often found myself pouring through the Scriptures trying to find morsels that might explain why all these things happened to me and my family. And you know what? I actually found a lot-but there were moments I didn't want to listen to them! So as you read this book, first pray that God would open your heart and mind, then hang on tight and prepare for healing. It may be hard to live through some of the things you have been trying to force out of your memory, but our God is greater than the trials and He does indeed have the answers you've been looking for. I pray as you work your way through this short book that you will be blessed-and I pray that you will allow God's healing balm to sink deep into your soul ... The healing process can sometimes really hurt, but it will all be worth it.

Download or read book How to Fix a Broken Heart written by Guy Winch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine if we treated broken hearts with the same respect and concern we have for broken arms? Psychologist Guy Winch urges us to rethink the way we deal with emotional pain, offering warm, wise, and witty advice for the broken-hearted. 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. Through compelling research and new scientific studies, Winch reveals how and why heartbreak impacts our brain and our behavior in dramatic and unexpected ways, regardless of our age. Emotional pain lowers our ability to reason, to think creatively, to problem solve, and to function at our best. In How to Fix a Broken Heart he focuses on two types of emotional pain—romantic heartbreak and the heartbreak that results from the loss of a cherished pet. These experiences are both accompanied by severe grief responses, yet they are not deemed as important as, for example, a formal divorce or the loss of a close relative. As a result, we are often deprived of the recognition, support, and compassion afforded to those whose heartbreak is considered more significant. Our heart might be broken, but we do not have to break with it. Winch reveals that recovering from heartbreak always starts with a decision, a determination to move on when our mind is fighting to keep us stuck. We can take control of our lives and our minds and put ourselves on the path to healing. Winch offers a toolkit on how to handle and cope with a broken heart and how to, eventually, move on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being hurt and heartbroken is a sad reality for most of us. But I'm so thankful for this treasure of a book written by my friend Suzie Eller. Page by page, Suzie will help you understand how God's truth can heal your pain so you can move forward whole and healed. - Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times Bestselling Author and President of Proverbs 31 Ministries Brokenness happens. Tragedy, sin or the painful choices of others all have the ability to disrupt an otherwise contented life. And as a result of our heartache, we often attempt to fix our own brokenness—with disastrous results. If you've tried to heal, but keep ending up in the same place—whether the battle is in your heart or out in the open where everyone can see—The Mended Heart is for you. In this book, author Suzanne Eller tells it like it is: people throw quick fixes at you, or tell you to pull yourself up by your bootstraps (whatever that means). More important, though, she shares the powerful truth of Jesus' mission as outlined in Luke 4:18-21: He came to set free all those who are oppressed and in need of mending. You don’t have to fix yourself—Jesus loves you right where you are. In fact, He has already completed the work that needs to be done. The Mended Heart will encourage you to trust Him, to give and receive grace, and to move ahead even stronger than before … even if others don’t move with you.

Download or read book Unsinkable Faith written by Tracie Miles and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2017-04-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.

Download or read book Learning How to Heal a Broken Heart written by Marvin Scholz and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-23 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have yet to meet someone who has not been heartbroken at least once in their life. It happens to us all, more often than not, it'll happen more than once. We get heartbroken, we get disappointed, we get rejected. It's part of life. We live in a world with flawed humans who fail us and make mistakes. Many of our dreams are wrapped up in these humans, and because of that, brokenness is just a part of living on this earth. It's a price of admission to this life and something which we all must pay. We can't always control the situation or the outcome for that matter. But we can control how we respond to the devastating blow when heartbreak strikes. In this book, I will go over all the ways one can truly heal from heartbreak. Dealing with the pain that comes with it, the struggle, the insecurities, disappointment, and the rejection. I will show you how to combat grief and how to endure the difficult road to becoming whole again. Heartbreak and disappointment, they change you; change how you eat, how you sleep, and how you interact with others. It shakes you to your very core. The essence of who you are. Recovering from such trauma can be an extremely lengthy and challenging process. If done incorrectly, you're not only prolonging your heartbreak but also risking long-term emotional damage. Add to the fact that most people don't even know what genuine healing really is, and then you understand why most people never truly accomplish it. In a world that leaves us broken many times over, we must excel in the process of healing. Healing is an art. An art that we must master if we want to live a truly fulfilling life. If we're going to create healthy, long-lasting relationships, then we have to learn how to heal fully, and in the right way from the ones that leave us broken. Because heartbreak isn't physical trauma where our bodies automatically know how to respond. No, I'm afraid with mental trauma, the healing process is far more complicated than that. And it's entirely up to us whether we heal or not. If your heart is heavy, if your soul is crushed, if you're suffocating in immeasurable grief and disappointment, I want you to take this book and let it be your lifeline for these troublesome times. Let me be the compass that will lead you out of this storm.
