Moving On After The Divorce A Take On Eat Pray Love

Tweet

Unless you have as much money as Julia Roberts' character in Eat, Pray, Love, and then you can't do what she did after the divorce. After you and your husband divorced, there are a lot of feelings involved: anger, pain, the feeling of being unwanted and having your world crash on you. The only thing that you can adapt from Eat, Pray, Love is to take a break. You don't need to go across countries just to find yourself and become whole again after the divorce, there are some easy and cheap ways in which you can accomplish what you're looking for: moving on.

EAT

Literally, eat whatever you want. After the divorce, you are sure to become exhausted and fed up that you find comfort in foods. Never mind that you will look fatter, and that your divorced ex husband might see you looking like that. Eat ice cream and chocolates. Those foods, especially chocolates are high in endorphins, happy hormones, thus making you feel lighter and happier. After you pig out on sweets, it's time that you eat healthy.

You need not to be selfish. You also need to think about your children, so be healthy for them. They are also at their lowest point after the divorce, so make sure that you cook them good food. If you do not know how, then maybe this is the best time that you learn. It could be fun, too, and it could be you and your children's new activity to move on with your lives. Apart from that, eat healthy, so when your ex husband sees you again looking better, he will eat his heart out.

PRAY

Whatever religion or God you believe in, there has to be some higher power that you look up to. Ask for his guidance and give you the strength to carry on after getting divorced. They say prayer is the best weapon for any depression that one may feel. Why not make it yours? Apart from that, having the hope that everything will be fine and having the faith in your God will definitely help you course through life after the divorce.

Another good thing that can come out from praying is having the solidarity and calmness that one can only feel when she believes in higher power. With this, not only you, but your children will be helped as well to move on if you can move on right away after getting divorced.

LOVE

It just doesn't mean finding someone to love. After getting divorced, it is understandable that you may want to get out of the dating scene for a while. What you need to do is love yourself. Love yourself and aim to become a better person after the divorce. Do what you have to do; do the things that you wished you did but didn't because you have a husband, do something new, find a new activity and excel in it. Make yourself happy.

Aside from that, shower your kids lots of love. You need to be strong for them so show them how much you love them. Go out with them and create new happy memories. Go out on vacations and just be there for them. All the love that you have for your husband, give it all to our children, they deserve it.

See, you don't need to go to Italy, India and Indonesia just to find yourself and be happyafter the divorce, which just happens in the book. But if there's something Liz has thought every divorced woman out there, is that there is life after being divorced from your husband. Find happiness in the little things, just like what the book says, finding happiness is not a stroke of luck, you work for it.
