Chances are, you have been there, breaking up, leaving, divorcing. How did it make you feel? Do you think you did well? Did your partner do well? In the workshop, I would like to offer you a few simple tools on how to navigate separation. It doesn’t matter if it was your childhood boyfriend or your long term partner. If you carry a residual pain, there are ways to assist in letting go. Don’t take me wrong, I can’t offer you a magic pill that would heal the pain of long term abusive relationship, betrayal, or any other deep trauma. But I will offer you the tools you can use to find peace and reclaim the space within yourself that will be available for future relationships.

“I didn’t even realise how attached I had become to my relationship until the breaking off it came unexpectedly. I had always been prone to melancholy and grief and so this pain stayed with me for many years. In the end, it became my friend, but the road there was long.” Maja Krasna
