Most everyone who will read this article feels guilty about something. Living life on planet earth will give you many opportunities to feel guilty.
Here are the top ten reasons people feel guilty:
1.) Things said at a moment of being stressed out, tired or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
2.) Not taking the time to be with our children, our parents or our grandparents.
3.) Financial obligations left unpaid.
4.) Failed friendships and marriages.
5.) Behaviors that are unbecoming because of societal standards.
6.) All the things we should of, would of, could of done.
7.) The circumstances of the death of someone close to us.
8.) Physically or verbally abusing another person or being abused.
9.) What we eat.
10.) Religion and its perception of “sin”.
If you analyze this list, everything occurs in the past, everything. This means that we no longer have any control about what happened, none. Yet, we spend hours and hours beating ourself up out something that we have no control over. What a waste of time, especially when life is an unavoidable guilt trip.
Guilt is the result of negativity and judgement and a convoluted system of perfection standards serving only to weaken us. Why not just make a decision to be better than the past and move on? The problem is that the mind wants resolution and there is no resolution in the past so for relief we must stop believing what we think.
Guilt is heavy, it weighs a ton on our minds and our bodies. It can be the biggest burden we are carrying around. So as a part of your healing plan, we will need to cut the etheric cord to these events and allow the emotional body to heal.
The best way to remove guilt is to look at the person we are now. Have we learned from our mistakes and actions? If so, great, now realize that the past is the past, accept that we cannot undo it and embrace acceptance. If not, take the time to analyze how we could have done better and what were the emotions that got us to that moment and how can we better control those emotions now? To help with acceptance realize that we did the best that we could have at the time. Maybe we were acting out of fear and survival and did not do things well. Stress can also play a huge role in how we handle situations, so take a dose of realization to help in moving on. Realize the value of what happened and that we could never be the person we are without these events in our life. Through the pain and suffering we become more passionate and these situations can help us to be a better and more successful person in the next opportunity.
PRACTICE:
Identify your biggest regret. Sit quietly. Bring the situation into your mind. Place the stone sodalite on your heart. As the situation becomes clear in your mind start to go in reverse of what happened, unwind the tape in your head. Go back to the moment before the event occurred. Now move the heart vibration through the crystal and out into the unwound scene of the guilty moment. Ask the universe to clean all of the negative thoughts and hurtful feelings from that moment. Share the power of your heart with the person that you have guilty feeling about and place the intention that they are healed and that your sadness is removed. Thank your spirit guides for helping you.
