Our guilt for saying the wrong thing, for example, can play over and over in our minds rotting our insides, marring the moment, and injuring our relationship with others and our selves.
Remorse itself isn’t bad. What’s bad is obsessing over a past action without doing anything to repair it.
How many times have I heard others talk about things they wish they didn’t do or say to their kids, friends and partners? How much energy is wasted worrying about the repercussions instead of making amends?
Spending your time regretting will never redo the past. But learning to accept, forgive and apologize will change your future. Our posts this week will help you do the latter by giving you ways to love yourself more, and tips for how to better respond to your anxious child.
