Love is a good thing to have in your life. Here is a San Diego and Encinitas therapist’s advice on how to get love back into your life if you have lost a love. Are you recovering from a heartbreak? Have you lost a love through divorce, death, break up, or disillusionment? Please don’t be discouraged. Loss of love is in some ways parallel to a surgeon’s knife. The surgeon’s knife cuts out a cancer damaging healthy tissue while at the same time opening the door to better health. When love is lost it cuts into well-being but opens the door to a greater experience of love and life. The sacrifice of one thing can open the door to another perhaps even better thing. Though your loss has left a scar, it is also a part of your honing to a greater love. How can this be so? How can you find your way back into love? You must first grieve your loss.
