A breakup can feel like your life was shattered beyond recognition. When life is in pieces, how do you begin to put things back together?

​
​

Allow me to introduce the Japanese art of kintsugi. Kintsugi is the art of repairing broken pottery using lacquer mixed with gold. Not only does the pottery become a work of art, it actually heals stronger than before.

​
​

This applies to your life, too.

​
​

Except the gold in this case are your beliefs.

​
​

Most of us have a negative thinking bias. We believe the worst. We fear the worst.

​
​

The conversation in your head might go like this, “This is terrifying. I’m scared of the future, I don’t know what this is going to look like. I’ve had bad luck in the past, I’ve made so many bad choices. Whatever is coming next is probably going to end badly no matter what I do.”

​
​

What you deserve is a chance to create a future after you’ve healed with gold.

​
​

Healing with gold involves:

• Building trust in yourself so you have your own back no matter what happens.

• Managing your emotions so you aren’t scared of feeling angry, sad, lonely, or heartbroken. You know you’ll be ok.

• Having better criteria for evaluating and making decisions so you stop choosing from old patterns and choose from alignment with your values.

• Normalize feeling good instead of self-sabotaging when things get too good.

​
​

What might be possible for you if you start adding gold to your life? What impact would that have on your future?

​
​

Sit with that for a moment and think about it. It probably looks different from what you’ve seen so far in your life. And maybe that’s exciting (and a tad bit scary!).
