How to Stop Checking Your Ex's Social Media
If you keep checking on your ex through social media after a breakup - looking at their profile, viewing their stories, seeing who they're following, or looking for signs that they've moved on or thinking about you - you already konw how difficult it can be to stop. Social media has completely changed what healing from a breakup requires. We now have constant access to an ex, which means creating the distance you need to move on has become a choice you have to make over and over again. In this episode, I explain why checking your ex's social media can keep you stuck in a cycle of heartbreak, attachment and desire - and what to focus on instead. I talk about why looking at your ex can give you a temporary sense of relief or closeness while ultimately bringing your attention straight back to the relationship you're trying to let go of. I also break down what happens when you see your ex moving on, why comparing your healing timeline to theirs keeps you focused in the wrong direction, and how to start putting your attention back to your own life. You will learn: Why you feel such a strong urge to check your ex's profile How checking your ex can reinforce attachment and longing Why more information about your ex doesn't necessarily give you closure What to do when you see your ex moving on How to stop comparing your recovery to theirs How to redirect your attention away from your ex Why reconnecting with your bigger "why: can make it easier to stop checking Show Links: Join Breakup to Blessing: https://sylviasuwan.com/program
