3 Things To Do If You're Still Not Over Your Ex
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
10/18/24 • 23 min
Do you find yourself thinking about your ex often?
What has been the hardest part of moving on for you?
Today, Jay taps into the emotional complexities of getting over an ex and provides actionable steps to move forward. Drawing on insights from neuroscience and psychology, Jay explains why it's entirely normal to struggle with letting go of a past relationship, even if it's been months or years. The emotional pain we experience after a breakup, he explains, is comparable to drug withdrawal, highlighting the deep biological connections we form with our partners.
One of the most impactful ideas Jay shares is that clinging to the past steals energy and time from the future. By ruminating over what could have been, we rob ourselves of the opportunity to build new experiences and relationships. Ultimately, Jay’s message is clear: while it's natural to struggle with letting go, the key to healing lies in breaking old patterns, embracing new habits, and shifting our focus toward growth. If you or someone you know is struggling to move on from a past relationship, this episode offers practical tools and compassionate advice to help start the journey toward healing.
In this episode, you'll learn:
How to Heal by Changing Your Environment
How to Replace Emotional Attachment After a Breakup
How to Shift Focus from the Past to the Present
How to Build Confidence Without External Validation
How to Move On by Breaking Old Patterns
Trust that with patience and self-compassion, you will find the strength to not only move on, but to thrive in ways you never imagined. You deserve the love and happiness that comes from within—keep moving forward, you're stronger than you know.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty

00:00 Intro
02:29 What to Do If You’re Still Not Over Your Ex?
04:11 What Research Shows About Breakups

7 Ways to Get Through Tough Days, Weeks & Months In Love & Relationships
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
08/13/21 • 22 min
We often want to be recognized for what we did well and not for our mistakes. If we keep hearing the things we did wrong over and over, we tend to see them as truth and eventually keep repeating the same mistakes.
This is where most relationships struggle because people often focus on the wrong, the mistake, the unsightly character instead of appreciating the good traits, the commendable actions, and the everyday effort our partners put into the relationship.
In this episode of On Purpose, Jay Shetty talks about looking past the negative aspects of your relationship and learning to pick out what can make it work.

Many of us practice the habit of making a new year’s resolution, often to change something, to achieve something, or build something. Our resolutions are pointed toward starting fresh and having a productive year ahead.
But some don’t get to fulfill this list. Some don’t get to make a significant change in their life because they often don’t develop the resolve to fulfill them. The goal is clear but the path to reach that goal is undefined and the intention to create that path isn’t set.
In this episode, Jay Shetty talks about the steps to help you start these significant changes right away and achieve results that are truly life-changing.
