In a recent conversation with Kelly Hinch on BBC Sounds, I shared that it's actually healthy to feed your ex to a reptile, metaphorically speaking , of course. Listen in on the conversation here (skip to 2:47:45 to fast track to my segment).
All this to help you heal from heartbreak. But can it work? Give it a go yourself by listening in on this audio guided meditation below on how to feed your ex to a reptile and heal from heartbreak.
Note: this recording was made in collab with my AI companion so that I could deliver it to you quickly and easily for free. Do pause the recording between each Step so that you can fully complete it before moving on to the next.
FYI Twycross Zoo in the UK is testing this IRL by giving one heartbroken human the chance to feed their ex, in the form of a bug, to a reptile at the opening of a new animal habitat: Close Encounters - The World of Reptiles and Spiders. How exciting!
The Five Step Ritual to Healing from Heartbreak
Step 1
Recall your ex and notice all that stuck stuff inside you, from the memories to the emotions to the physical sensations that go along with it all.
Step 2
Imagine all of this stuff moving outside of your body and into the body of a delicious little insect that the reptile of your choice might enjoy for lunch (my choice is a panther chameleon).
Step 3
Imagine feeding this insect to your chosen reptile. Know that all of that stuff that you've just cleared is simply energy. And that as a food source for your reptile it will be recycled and made into something nourishing.
Step 4
Voila! You've just practiced energy alchemy. Notice how you feel in your body. When I teach a similar ritual to clients who are struggling with heartbreak, they tell me they feel lighter and more free afterwards. If this is you too, you've become an energy alchemist – you've transformed negative energy into something positive and good.
Step 5
Fill up with the good stuff. Imagine fresh new light, crystal clear, high vibe energy enter into the spaces you've cleared within you.
You are whole, you are healed, you are complete.
The truth is that it does work
When we experience relationship transitions and breakups, we often carry emotional residue that gets stuck in our bodies and can impede healing, moving on and making future connections that might be more right for us.
In my personal and professional practice, I've experienced how guided visualization and symbolic actions can help clients heal from heartbreak and:
🦎 Process complex emotions in a structured way
🦎 Create definitive closure points
🦎 Transform negative energy into positive potential
🦎 Open space for new relationships and experiences
The metaphorical act of releasing what no longer serves us allows space for new growth and opportunities.
