Welcome back to our following Happiness Expert, Aymee Coget, in dealing with her own Break Up!

(Read the last blog post to get the full story.)

To recap, Step One of the Break Up Formula (we will call it the BUF from now on!) is to Acknowledge the Break Up. Step two of Aymee Coget’s “BUF” is Accepting the Break Up. This means you no longer question the validity of the break up.
This is the time when there are no more “What IF” questions, no more day dreaming about might have been, no more kicking yourself for not being some way or for being some “way,” no more convincing or being mean to him. In this stage the focus returns to SELF and nurturing ourselves completely (think chocolate, baths, massage, flowers, hanging with girlfriends, removing all his objects from your home, etc.)

An important aspect in the step of Acceptance of the Break Up is FORGIVENESS. It is important to forgive OURSELVES for whatever we think we failed at, did not do right, think we did wrong, things we missed, ways that we acted out, et al. If we ever hope to come to forgive our “Ex” and anyone for that matter, we need to first forgive ourselves.

Aymee Coget, our resident Happiness Expert, allowed herself to eat her favorite Lindt Dark Chocolate Truffles (all 24) for dinner that night! She got on the horn and discussed the situation with trusted mentors and friends. She went around the house collected his toothbrush, special photo’s, articles of clothing, even love letters – and SENT IT TO HIM THE NEXT DAY.

So, I hear this from Aymee and I am in a bit of shock and a little skeptical. She moved through what normally takes most of us days or weeks or months to process in hours. Her mind is clear, her attitude is chipper, she is refocused on herself, she put the chocolate bar down, and she went back to work helping people live happier lives.
What do you think? Is this REALLY possible? Is she some sort of fraud? Fake? Or is she a woman so in touch with reality, accepting situations as they are, and deeply honoring her own self worth, that she can relatively effortlessly let this man she whole-heartedly loved, go his own way.
