If you want to forget about the past and cannot do it in any way, it means that you are still seething with feelings that tie you to an unpleasant situation. And until you break this connection, the past will continue to dominate you.
Instructions
Step 1
Recently, more and more often it is said that we attract all unpleasant situations to ourselves. There is a great deal of truth in this postulate. Therefore, do not blame your offenders for all mortal sins, it is better to ask yourself the question - what caused this situation in you? What lesson has life taught you? If you can draw the right conclusions, this lesson will be considered passed. Do not accumulate resentment, otherwise it is very likely that a difficult situation for you will happen again.
Step 2
Think about what positive things have brought you from a past that you find unpleasant. It is always there, just people are not used to seeing it. Maybe you have become more stress-resistant, maybe you have discovered some qualities in yourself that you did not expect before? Think about it. It is possible that as a result you will realize that what happened was only good for you.
Step 3
Forgive and let go. Open the doors of your soul and release resentment or other negative feelings from it. Psychological methods will help to do this, of which there are many at the moment. You can use one of them or create your own. A few examples: buy a balloon inflated with helium, write all experiences with a marker on its sides and release the balloon into the sky. Watch him closely until he is out of sight. Later, when the past returns, evoke in yourself the memory of this flying away ball.
Step 4
Another way: collect whatever you want to forget into a mental movie. Play it the first time in color, and then start to gradually brighten your inner film. Do this several times until it is completely white. With any memories that will torment you, do the same.
