⬇️ SOME TIPS FOR LETTING GO OF THE PAST.

We all have a past, and sometimes, things that happened in the past have a way of sticking with us and can hold us back from moving forward. 

1️⃣ BE INTENTIONAL.
As you realize you're stuck in the past, you may have a realization that something needs to change in order for you to move forward. Personal growth and progress always starts with an intention, a wanting and a willingness to do something differently in order to get a different result.
The first step to letting go of the past is choosing with intention to do so. Make that commitment to let go. 

2️⃣ WORK WITH AN AFFIRMATION OR MANTRA.
Affirmations and mantras can be a powerful tool to help "rewire" negative thought loops, priming the brain to look for and believe in what it is you're telling yourself, which is why they are helpful when letting go of the past.

Here's a quick list of mantras and affirmations for letting go of the past:

🔹I choose to let go of the past.
🔹I look forward to my future.
🔹I am fully present in this moment.
🔹I can't change what's happened, but I can change how I move through it.
🔹I am resilient.
🔹I am ready to move on.
🔹I am grateful for who I am today.
🔹I am more than what has happened to me.
🔹I give myself patience and grace.
🔹I embrace new beginnings.

3️⃣ Take the time to process your thoughts and emotions.
🔹Understand that healing is not linear, and letting go takes time. After all, we can't change the past, and we may never be the same but that doesn't mean we have to stay stuck. 

When we reject, resist, or otherwise struggle against our pain we only create undue suffering. So give yourself permission to be as you are, feel what you feel, or have experienced what you've experienced without creating unproductive shame or anxiety. The pain might still be there but some of the suffering will be alleviated.
