JLo’s Serene Summer Snapshots: Finding Peace and Happiness After Ben Affleck Divorce
When Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck first got together in 2002, it was like a Hollywood fairytale come to life. They were both riding high on their careers and they looked like the perfect couple. But just two years later, they called off their engagement, citing constant media scrutiny and the pressure of their celebrity status.
Fast forward to 2021 and it seems like history is repeating itself. After a much-publicized six-month romance, Lopez and Affleck broke up once again. But this time around, something is different. Instead of retreating from the spotlight, JLo is embracing it, sharing stunning snapshots of her serene summer on Instagram and reminding us all that happiness is possible after heartbreak.
Here are some of the ways that JLo is finding peace and happiness after her Ben Affleck breakup, and how you can do the same.
Embracing Nature
One of the things that JLo has been sharing most on her Instagram lately is her love of nature. From sunset beach walks to paddleboarding in the Hamptons, she’s been spending a lot of time outside, surrounded by the beauty of the natural world.
This is a powerful way to find peace after a breakup, as nature has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety. Studies have found that spending time in green spaces can lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol, while exposure to sunlight can boost mood and overall wellbeing.
Practical Tip: Take a walk in your local park or nature reserve, or plan a weekend camping trip to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Meditation and Mindfulness
Another tool in JLo’s post-breakup arsenal is meditation and mindfulness. She’s shared photos of herself in deep meditation and has been promoting the benefits of the practice on her social media accounts.
Meditation has been linked to reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression, improved focus and concentration, and even lower blood pressure. By taking time to quiet your mind and focus on the present moment, you can find a sense of inner peace and calm that can carry you through even the toughest times.
Practical Tip: Try out a meditation app like Headspace or Calm, or simply sit quietly for 5-10 minutes each day, focusing on your breath and being present in the moment.
Staying Active
JLo has always been known for her killer abs and toned physique, and she’s been keeping up her exercise routine even in the midst of her breakup. From boxing to yoga, she’s been sharing photos and videos of her workouts, inspiring her followers to get moving too.
Exercise is a powerful mood booster, as it releases endorphins, those feel-good chemicals that can lift your spirits and ease anxiety. It’s also been linked to improved mental clarity and reduced symptoms of depression.
Practical Tip: Find an exercise routine that works for you, whether it’s running, swimming, dancing, or lifting weights. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week.
Surrounding Yourself with Loved Ones
JLo has been reminding us all of the importance of surrounding ourselves with loved ones. She’s been spending time with her children, her sister, and her close friends, soaking up the love and support of those closest to her.
Research has shown that having strong social connections is one of the most important factors in overall happiness and wellbeing. When we feel connected to others, we have a sense of purpose, belonging, and support that can help us weather even the toughest storms.
Practical Tip: Make time for the people you love, whether it’s a weekly date night with your partner, a phone call with a friend, or a family gathering. Prioritizing your relationships can help you feel more connected and supported during difficult times.
JLo’s serene summer snapshots offer a powerful reminder that happiness is possible after heartbreak. By embracing nature, practicing mindfulness, staying active, and surrounding yourself with loved ones, you can find peace and happiness even in the midst of difficult times.
