Acknowledge what you are holding onto
Name the feeling honestly
Accept that you cannot change the past
Separate what is yours to control from what is not
Stop replaying the same story
Allow yourself to feel the loss
Release the need for closure
Reduce contact with reminders when possible
Replace rumination with a new focus
Practice forgiving yourself
Practice forgiving others
Let go of expectations that no longer serve you
Make a clear decision to move forward
Take one small action that supports release
Be patient with the process
Repeat the choice to let go each day
