Just Let the Past go

When people say just let go of the past, my first thought is: Okay then hand it to me and I’ll let it go!

No one can do that can they? Yet people trot that old cliché out time and time again if you happen to be struggling with the past.

It may genuinely be the only thing we know how to say, genuinely meant to be helpful, but it simply isn’t something you can do. It exists inside you, it exists in your memories, it’s ingrained in your behaviour.

And you’ve done nothing wrong!

You’re not holding on to anything. It’s real and a part of you. What would you cut out or remove to let it go?

We all try to forget it, but we can’t, and things will trigger us.

There is an answer.

Living in the now?

Again a very sensible saying. Except for the fact the past is in there and you can’t forget it, it will be triggered. Fact. It’s subconscious. Fact it will affect the now, which also means it will affect your future.

The answer is:

Living in the future!

Start visualising the person you want to be in great detail. Do not focus on the past at all. See yourself happy, successful, carefree, joyous, not hampered by any past training or experience

Become a person who didn’t experience your past.

Think about where it affects you and how, then imagine how you would behave, how you would speak, how you would act if you were a brand new human.

Be that person.

Best love
