About this listen

'Did you hear Amy has heartbreak?! What bad luck to catch it right at the end of winter.'

When Ziella Bryars was in the midst of heartbreak, a conversation with her neuroscientist best friend changed everything. Frustrated by unhelpful advice from magazines and rom-coms, Ziella began diving deep into the latest scientific research to help her understand the pain of heartbreak and find a route to recovery. This warm and witty self-help book outlines the impact a relationship break-up has on our brains and bodies, and explores how a science-based approach can help us heal. Ziella passes on what she learned about how a broken heart can affect everything from our sleep to our digestion; how rejection is represented in the brain in the same way as physical pain; how the brain processes loss; and how a break-up can trigger addiction-like withdrawal symptoms—plus tips for counteracting heartbreak and moving on to acceptance.

Personable, knowledgeable, helpful

It’s only a short listen, packed full of info that makes you feel less crazy when trying to grapple with heartbreak.
I loved that it was a mix of science, chatting with a friend, snippets of her personal story and helpful ways to move forward.

Definitely recommend!
