Regrets – Getting Stuck in the Past
from Dynamic Healing with David Hanscom MD and Les Aria PhD Hosted by Mind Body Spirit.fm
Remorse is a factor in keeping you moving forward into the life you want. It is the flip side of FOMO (fear of missing out), both of which are embedded thought patterns and don’t respond well to rational interventions. It is also unique to human consciousness. The Problem Remorse is a common almost universal trait. It is a problem in that the time and energy spent on missed opportunities keeps your nervous system and body fired up, drains you of your vital energies, and greatly compromises your quality of the life you have. Solutions Be aware of the fact that embedded thought patterns are not “solvable.” By fighting or fixing them, you’ll reinforce them. You have to stimulate your brain to change (neuroplasticity). Neuroplasticity Awareness – understand the nature of obsessive thought patterns – inner critics Role of anger keeping these circuits fired up Separation – expressive writing breath work welcome in the unwelcome Reprogramming – enjoying the life you have is a learned skill Deep gratitude Mindfulness, active meditation What do you want today? “Live life like you are 20” To have a good life, you have to live a good life.
