Your first introduction to the term conscious uncoupling may have been when Gwyneth Paltrow used it to describe her divorce from Chris Martin. A lot of people laughed at the term, wondering what the hell it even meant.

I’m even willing to admit I was one of them. It seemed like a really fancy, and rather strange, way to say you’re breaking up.

But over time, the term has become more mainstream and it actually makes a lot more sense than you might think. It might even make a breakup a lot easier than it’s ever been before.

A lot of prominent psychologists have expressed their approval of the conscious uncoupling approach. In fact, the process includes many principles that have been part of marriage and divorce counseling for years.

There are tons of websites dedicated to the concept these days. It no longer seems like a far-fetched ideal that only the rich and/or famous can espouse.

You can try it for yourself whether you live in Beverly Hills or not. Look at these tips for how to complete a relationship and move ahead without the usual distress.
