The plant will heal. In a few days, you'll see a widening of the break point and they'll be ok.
Just don't mess with them while they heal.
 
I have used 2 pieces of transparent tape before. Place the branches in the right position and put a piece of tape on each side. The tape falls off as the plant grows. Mine was alot thicker than yours though...and Stoney is the man!
 
I had a six foot outdoor pland break over in a storm untill the whit part of the stalk was sticking through the bark. I debated on taking it but it had just started budding and was laying on its side on the ground. I left it and when i returned the break spot had healed into a huge ball and the plant finished budding on its side. All the bottom side died but the top side turned into a lot of colas. Plants will heal a lot better than you think just give them time and leave them be. Slim Ps if the break had been on a person it would have been the nastiest compound fracture you ever saw With the white stalk sticking three inches out of the green bark. I never thaought it would have lived.
 
your plant will be fine man. It happens in nature all the time . The plant will repair itself and go on .
