You really thought he was the one – the love of your life. Then you wake up one day and the relationship is over. Now what do you do? How do you get over him? How do you put the pieces of your life back together without him?

Great questions! Here are ten ways to get over him:

1. Don’t Listen to Other People’s Advice – you know what happens when others find out your relationship is over, they try to give you advice. There is no question that the advice is meant to be helpful, but it is not always the right advice for you. So the first step in getting over him is to not listen to other people’s advice. Believe it or not you know what is right for you – it may just take sometime to figure what “right” is. So that brings me to strategy number two.

2. Accept yourself where you are – the end of a relationship can be very traumatic. You may not always make the right choices at first, you may behave in a not so flattering way and you may even make some serious mistakes. I know I acted in some pretty strange ways and did some pretty strange things when I was faced with the end of my relationships. That is okay, be accepting of where you currently are in your healing process. When I finally decided to be accepting of me then I was able to see what my healing pattern was and as a result was able to heal more quickly the next time – because I knew what I needed to do to move forward. We all heal at different levels, so give yourself a break and be accepting of where you are right now – don’t rush it be others say you should. Only you know what you can handle when.

3. Don’t blame yourself – when a relationship ends it is easy to start pointing fingers and placing blame, believing that it has to be someone’s fault that the relationship ended rather than accepting that this particular relationship ran its course. I am sure there are things that you did or said that you wish you could change now. You may even believe that those things caused the relationship to end. Rather than blaming yourself for the action or words learn from them. Take this time to learn about yourself and what aspects of your life you would like to change so you can attract a more compatible partner into your life in the future.

4. Listen to your intuition – you know that little voice in your head that gives you hints about how you feel, what you value and believe. Now is the time to really listen. Your intuition will help you make the right choices for you and guide you in the right direction. Pay attention to what your intuition is telling you – this is your compass that will help direct you out of the emotional fog that is surrounding you – so can begin to face the reality of the situation – the relationship is over.

5. Face Reality – Byron Katie said “when you fight with reality you but lose 100% of the time”. Maya Angelou said “when someone shows you who they are, believe them … the first time”. If he told you it is over then it is over – even if he talks to you the next time you see him, still calls once and a while or it seems like he still cares. Stop reading more into his actions then what is really there, stop wishing and hoping that the situation was different. Thoughts like these keep you stuck in the past – stopping you from moving through the healing process and better things to come. Just think, if you are too busy trying to hold on to something that is no longer there your true love may walk right by and you will never meet him. Wouldn’t want that now would you?

6. Ask for Help – if you can’t move past the loss of this relationship alone, then ask for help. When I say ask for help I mean help from a non-biased, unattached party – not your best friend or your mother. They can be a great support system when you need a shoulder to cry on or to vent, but be careful they can be part of the reason you having a hard time moving forward. You may want to consider hiring a coach, talking to minister or joining a support group to help you get through the roughest patch.

7. Get Angry – allowing yourself to get angry is a great tool for moving through the pain of a broken relationship. Let’s be real, your going to get mad, it is part of the package. So let it rip. With that being said, you need to find a safe outlet for your angry feelings. You can’t just go over to your ex’s house and punch him out – I know that is what you were thinking. You need to find another outlet for your anger, whether it be running, kickboxing, punching a pillow or writing anger letters. What ever method you choose is up to you – just get it out.

8. Learn to Forgive – yes it is important to find forgiveness in your heart for not only your ex but yourself as well. Forgiveness releases you from the past so you can begin to move forward. Forgive yourself for the mistakes you made in the relationship and learn from them. Forgive him for breaking your heart or the mistakes he made that pushed you away or whatever it is you find in your heart to forgive. Remember forgiveness is really about giving up the belief that you can change the past.

9. Get Reconnected with You – the end of a relationship is a great opportunity to get reconnected with yourself. We all change, growth, evolve or stay stagnate depending on what type of relationship we were in. Now is the time to get reconnected with this new person. Without the distraction of a relationship you can really take the time to get reacquainted with your best friend – you.

10. Move forward – start thinking about what you want your life to look like now that you are not longer in the relationship. I am sure you had a vision of what your future looked like with your partner, right. Now is the time to redefine that future. What do you want it to look like? What can you do today to start making that future a reality? Start moving forward today.

Everybody who wants to get a perfectly tan skin the safe way would rather opt for tanning salons and tanning bed lotions. Sunbathing is the old way of getting your skin bronzed. It is a very dangerous way of getting tan, as too much exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. So if you want real tan minus the health concerns, it is best that you use tanning beds and lotions to achieve the desired skin tone.

There are many places where you can buy tanning bed lotions. However, there are places where you can get them at the best value and there are some stores where they are sold at relatively high prices. For starters, you can buy these lotions directly from the tanning salon you frequent to. Tanning salons usually house several tanning beds where customers can take turns in making their skin darker. You just have to spend several minutes in a tanning bed to achieve an instant tan. But before you lie inside the enclosure, you are supposed to put tanning lotion all over your body first. Only then you can maximize the effects of the tanning bed.

Buying tanning bed lotions from the tanning salon itself is convenient. But doing so is also expensive. Most of the time, these salons support a certain line of tanning products. They could be the product’s exclusive distributors or they earn through commissions. Either way, they tend to overprice their products.

If you are going to buy a tanning bed for home use, you can buy some lotions from the bed’s distributor itself. More often than not, they would sell you a complete set – the tanning bed and everything else you need to use it effectively. Lotions are consumables. Once you run out of them, you can just call the company where you bought the bed and order more.

Again, these outlets tend to overprice their products. They usually advertise their tanning bed along with their lotions and most probably, they share the same brand. But of course, you can use an entirely different tanning bed lotion and enjoy the same effects. You can purchase lotions from online stores and health shops. Just make sure that you get the ones that are made especially for a tanning bed. The ones sold at online stores are relatively cheaper than the ones sold at tanning salons and from tanning bed distributors. So whenever you can, order in bulk. Doing so would save you a lot of money in the process.
