Summary of The Breakup Bible 

4.5 . 280 reviews

Short summary

Every day, women are thrown into the world of pain that breakups or divorces bring. Many of them describe a breakup as something unbelievable and devastating. It’s hard for anyone going through a breakup to make sense of their emotions and continue to do their daily rituals. It is even harder for them to get over the memories and start afresh. This summary presents evidence that you can thrive after a breakup and provides you with tools to ensure it happens. It highlights how breakups can become essential life lessons that lead you to find yourself and develop better habits. As painful as breakups can be, they won’t kill you but make you stronger. Rachel Sussman is a licensed psychotherapist, writer, and lecturer. She is also the founder of Sussman Counseling, a psychotherapy practice devoted to treating couples and individuals with relationship dilemmas. Sussman has counseled patients in all phases of dating, marriage, and breakups for more than a decade. “You will heal. You will survive. You will thrive and move on to live your best life yet.” ~ Rachel A. Sussman

Rachel spent many years moving from one toxic relationship to another. When she became tired of all the heartbreaks, she was determined to find out why she couldn’t have a successful relationship. Rachel decided to stop dating and spend a year in counseling. This was a life-changing move for her as she began to understand herself and see all the reasons why her relationships were not working out.

If you are currently experiencing a breakup and it feels like you’ll never survive it, the truth is that you will get better. You can survive without your ex, and your life can become healthier. This summary is the result of many counseling sessions that Rachel has had with women who experienced heartbreak. It highlights the many steps that are necessary for recovery: healing, understanding, and transformation. Every step is essential for you to reclaim your life and become an even better version of yourself.
Through the process of loving and losing, we have the capacity to learn new coping mechanisms.
A breakup does not define you; you can live a wholesome life even after a divorce or breakup. It all starts with you — you need to have a desire to change and then find the motivation to make that change happen. Keep reading to find out Rachel’s tips for healing and how you can make your life your own again.
second key point

Healing is a difficult but rewarding journey that you need to begin on your own

It doesn’t matter if you’ve been in a relationship for a year or twenty. A breakup is always a painful event, even if you’re the one who initiated it. The first few weeks and months can be the most difficult because pervasive grief overcomes you. You begin to question your self-worth, choices, and everything that makes you who you are. These early days of your breakup can be quite difficult, but you have to trust that you will survive it eventually.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
