Kwik Brain Episode 108: Heal a Broken Heart with Dr. Shefali Tsabary
A common question from the Kwik Brain community is: why do most (more than half of all relationships) relationships fail? How can we move on from heartbreak? We grow the most through interaction and intimacy, but so many of us experience trouble along the way. The good news is by working on ourselves; we can change the patterns we’ve been seeing in our relationships and work towards a healthier, brighter future.
Dr. Shefali is a world-renowned clinical psychologist who received her doctorate from Columbia University, New York.
She specializes in the integration of Eastern philosophy and Western psychology, making her an expert in her field. Her message has the potential to change people’s lives for generations to come.
Oprah has endorsed Dr.Shefali's work as revolutionary and life-changing. Her ground-breaking approach to mindful living and parenting has taken her books to the top of the NY Times best-sellers list.
In this conversation, we delve into some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding relationships, why we need to invest in ourselves, and why romantic love is a delusion. We’ll explain how self-love can change your life and give you some suggestions to get started on your journey toward healthier relationships.

Romantic love is an industry
This woman is just pure authenticity and brilliance! And I think the way she eloquently puts out her wisdom on this whole relationship topic might be my favourite. There's the shift in my life right now which coincides with the shift that I'm experiencing from this talk. Thank you!
Love this: "There is no such thing as heartache. We think its heartache because that’s how the mainstream characterizes it but really it’s the ego and the false self being released so both people can evolve. It’s the inauthentic self being let go from the inauthentic relationship. The other person couldn’t see you for who you truly are and you couldn’t see them for who they truly are. True relationships, where you both see each other for who it is you are, always endure. Their form might change- the people might go from lovers to spouses to friends, but the relationship always endures."

Harsh Vaishnav 1). Marriage involves sexual/romantic relationship which is partially based on physical attraction. 2). Change -desirable or not- is inevitable. In a household people should expect reasonable accommodation to keep relations comfortable and peaceful. 3). Love is unconditional. Relationships are not. Both parties in healthy marriages understand this.
Dr Shefali speaks so eloquently, intelligent and wonderful, I feel her presence and her great energy 🙏🤗💕
Amen. That's right! Nobody on the OUTSIDE can meet your needs. That's why the person leaves you then repeats the same elsewhere.
I learned that everyone changes at different paces. I learned also that when you free yourself from expectations of things and others you free yourself from expectations of others
“Heal your inner child.”
Pre-marriage counseling is extremely important. You can determine if you really want to marry or you have issues to work on. Relationships are hard. Marriage is harder because you’re making a conscious choice to COMMIT and WORK together with someone else. Real Love is rare.

Bullshit. I have unconditional love for and from my siblings, my nieces and nephews, and several close friends.
I’ve been working on myself since my spouse died. Everything that was said is so true. I am starting a new relationship with more open eyes, and the difference this makes is phenomenal. It is freeing to feel this way. I’m evolving into a better person. My expectations are very different, my hope is this new relationship works, but I will continue working on myself first.
She is brilliant. Love Dr. Shefali! I saw a post of hers on FB at a time I was struggling with my child’s behavior. Her message was my “a ha” moment and really resonated. Her message about love and partnership is equally as wise. I learned last year that true, unconditional love means total acceptance of your partner while loving yourself. It allowed me to heal and hopefully allows my now-ex to heal as well. Great interview, thank you so much!

Gosh, I admire Dr. Tsabary's wisdom! She's absolutely brilliant! What a phenomenal teacher.
I loved this podcast. Each and every word of Dr. Shefali is liberating. I am experiencing that when i be my authentic self, i release the need for anyone to fulfill and complete me. Its a freedom for myself and for others as well. I can then see, accept people and situations the way they are. Its truly amazing.....thank you Jim Kwik and Dr. Shefali for this wonderful conversation. Looking forward to meet u both in person some day.

c Nomor Well That person could be but you don’t necessarily know that from the beginning. But that person will bring you closer to the one or the next person who will take you closer to the one. Etc. Not everyone finds the one in high school because we all have different lives. It is okay. Just keep moving forward and learning and growing
Going through the situation right now and it confirm thats what i should do ..free every one .no expectations..just give love..coz what you give is what you recieve
Human love is temporary.Thats the reason they keep pet dogs and cats..Being present is a gift of life...
For the ones who are having trouble hearing Dr.Shefali, try using earphones or headphones for this purpose.

I love the idea that it’s up to each in everyone of us that decide or influence the moment of our own awakening ; and also the idea that we think we have the ability to control over others and make them fullfill us and others are there to fullfill our inner insecurity from the childhood are irrelevant. :) . And once we have free ourself out of the thought may we truely heal the soul, fill the inner peace, be happier, and start to help others if it meet our soul’s need and possible :)(I think)
Dr. Shafali, you spoke nothing but the truth!

Superb video...loved it shafali...nd also learnt a lot from it
My parents love was very conditional, not unconditional, and many people do not believe in God or gods. We were taught wrong. I was always told: don't be selfish, don't do this, don't do that, don't be competitive. These are wrong on so many levels.
This is brilliant
The sound is tooooo low
Being BRUTALLY honest with self- ( & transparent with others) We r not meant to change all at the same time - we evolve when we are ready - let go of expectation- - -freedom for everyone to be themselves

Exactly. This is textbook wisdom that the therapist herself can’t emulate in her own personal life. If there is no such thing as failing relationships and heartache, then why are we created to be communal and in relationships and why does a baby rely so much on safety, consistency and love? We have lost our way so much that we need to define pain and failing marriages as something positive. God forbid we accept we have failed and that it fuckin hurts.

Im confused as well. I understand where she is coming from and tried to relate it to my situation in which the guy isnt communicating. Her advice is basically you shouldnt have expectations as people are human and you shouldnt need that person to meet your needs. But then relating this to my situation the guy im talking to communication sucks and i cant build that emotional connection with that person. So i will have to end it as they are not meeting that need. But she is stating they dont need to meet our needs. So what standard do you set for people you want to be in a relationship with. I do feel i can meet someone needs... as a little effort goes a long way and making a conscious decision to do something for someone you care about isnt that hard. If mothers with kids have this mindset we would have all grown with with our needs not being meet because the excuse of being human would be valid as well as human should expect other humans to meet your needs. The video made no sense to me.

No one can truly meet your needs but you. And when we are healthy, we don’t “need” anyone emotionally, rather we come together with others in the present moment because it’s authentic and not driven by any thing else (like the ego).
It fails because you get advice from people that are not happily and passionately in love with each other. If you understand and practice unconditional love you shouldn’t have a problem being in a relationship.
Can you please make a video talking about the good and positive side to marriage. The positive side that will encourage men and woman to appreciate the Beautiful of Marriage rather then feeding into the negativity. The more pple read and watch negative things about the marriage the more pple will expect that. Seriously what u put out there is what pple will observe and expect.
Release expectations Conforming to the ideal
I am so glad I came up of release my husband the responsibility of being my husband. Our relationship is not change but I am happier knowing we cannot have a healthy relationship if he cannot be his true self. This validated my choice is not crazy.
Marriage today is about power. Today when you live with someone, you become their employee of life. My dog does this with his ball. I am there to throw his ball. That is my existence for him. He means well. But a partner doing this is completely uncalled for, but today, that is the reality. People just use each other, not love. Forrest Gump knows what love is, but most Americans do not. But they do know what power is and they have it over on you.

While self awareness and working on self is ONE pillar or relationships, there are other important things involved. Read about Spiritual Bypassing if you've been reading into spiritual teachings for a while. Will save your life and keep your safe from toxic relationships otherwise hidden under "I can't receive love until I'm healed, it's all a mirror, can't expect live until you love" misunderstandings.

This is so fascinating. However the more I think about it I wonder: What are relationships for and do we even need them and if so what for"? Not coming from an attack point of you but as a part of the conversation and a fundamental question. How should we look at relationships to avoid the old way looking at them in terms of what the other person has to give/provide you.

So you say, I don't live my Truth & then you Become the truth you say you are. I guess LOVE is a illusion that we create in our own heads. I never met a man yet who hasn't disappointed me. Most of the time it's about their wants & needs even when they act like they want to help you, it's always about what's in it for them. Is this saying true love doesn't really exist? Love yourself.

Don’t say to yourself anything that you would not say to anybody else. Low self love often comes with critical inner dialogue. So imagine with everything that you think in your head, that you are saying it to somebody that you cherish, maybe a very best friend, a lover or a future child of yours. The important thing is would you talk to them like you talk to yourself in your inner dialogue? If you would never say such things to someone you care about, then don’t say them to yourself! This should help you to weed out mean or negative thoughts that you have about yourself, and help you to learn to nurture yourself.
Whole episode?
I can't hear Dr. Shefali. What happens to her voice? I think the mic is not clipped on properly. I read the transcript. She is right on. I believe we must learn to heal our past before planning to commit to a long term relationship and before having children. Everything will come back tenfold.
Is there any way for this woman to be more stunning?
My love for my now ex is still unconditional. If she gets fat, I still love just the same as always. She can't read my mind.

I think it’s the opposite of what she says. The child is so accustomed to getting everything he wants, parents always doing everything for the child. When he gets into a relationship his expectations are so high.
