There is no pain quite like the pain of a broken heart. There is this convergence of feelings which meld together in such a way that you ache to your very core. And yet, you know well enough to know that you’re going to get over the feeling so you experience almost a sense of shame for feeling so intense about the situation.

Despite the fact that you know that you’re going to get over the heartache, you need to give yourself a chance to experience your emotions after a relationship has ended. You have to grieve. And you have to let your heart regain its stability. One of the ways that you might be able to do this is to start a new hobby like orchid care.

Phalaenopsis orchid care requires that you take some time to just sit and be with the plants. They need attention and care which gives you an excuse to be alone in the garden. This is a good place for working through your feelings. You can scream and cry and there is no one there to make you feel bad about it.

At the same time, you are taking responsibility for getting yourself back in order. More than that, you have taken on responsibility for caring for another life. It’s not so much responsibility that it’s overwhelming. The world won’t end if the plant dies after all. But it’s something to start caring about in a way that can get your heart beating again.

And in the end, you have a beautiful garden of flowers as your own special treat that you made just for yourself. (If you’re really heartbroken, try cattleya care as the beauty of these orchids will make your heart soar.) A gift to yourself in the garden can help get you on the road to heartbreak recovery.
