People often look back at their past, and sometimes there is a desire to make the former not the former, to change any events in life, to return what was dear to their hearts, to correct mistakes.
How to forget the past
It is unlikely that it will be possible to make the former not the former, because people are not gods, and therefore they do not know how to change the events of their past life. But forgetting what has already happened is quite possible.
To forget the past, you can use the techniques of neurolinguistic programming, the methods of which are very actively used by modern psychologists and psychotherapists.
The first way to forget the past
To get the effect, you need to imagine a wall on which all the photos from life, marking the most important events, are posted. They should be colorful and vibrant. Next, you need to sort of move away from this wall, reduce it to the size of a matchbox. At this time, photos of the past should turn black and white. And then you should continue to glue photographs of future events on it, paint them with paints. You can imagine the most cherished dreams, pleasant moments that should happen, pictures where love and prosperity reign. So, small non-color photos will gradually be surrounded by bright, unpleasant moments will go into the distance, taking up only a tiny part of life. All these black and white photographs are someone else's life, and color pictures are a welcome present. As a result of this exercise, the past is, as it were, limited and does not extend to the future, the former becomes not the former.
The second way to forget the past
This method is very effective for those who want to forget the unpleasant moments of life, but the exercise should be performed some time after the event. The incident must be replayed in your imagination in the form of a black and white movie with funny voice acting. You need to imagine yourself sitting in the back rows in a cinema, hear the audience laughing, scroll some stories backwards, laugh at them. This must be done until the event ceases to be terrible and depressing. This method will help to change the attitude towards unpleasant moments of the past, and will help correct memory.
The third way to forget the past
This method makes it possible to forget the memories of the past, to change his vision. Negative events should be presented in the form of a nuclear reactor, which poisons life around even after many years. This reactor must be removed, concreted and buried along with the radiation. For the method to be more effective, you need to saturate real life with new bright events, which will become concrete for the reactor. The more good things happen, the deeper it will be buried. By taking proactive steps, you can still make the former not the former, leaving your past deep underground.
How to live in the present
To forget the past requires not only moving away from it, but also learning to live in the present. There is nothing better than living for today, enjoying what is happening now. Yoga, walking, mastering correct breathing, various spiritual practices help to learn to live in the present.
Creativity works well. The creation of a new and beautiful reflects the inner world of a person and makes it possible to understand that he is capable of much.
You can make a list of fears. This will allow you to become bolder and more realistic about the future.
You should give up emotions, accept the moment that the past can no longer be returned and nothing can be corrected, cool down, get rid of anger, irritation, sadness.
It is still impossible to make the former not the former in real life, but you can change the events of the past in your memories of it. If you can't forget some moments (or don't want to), you can change your attitude towards them. All this will help a person to enjoy the present and appreciate what he has here and now.
