Everybody deals with issues from their past whether we like it but  some may feel more painful than they need to. If you feel like you’ve been carrying around your past for far too long, it’s time to leave all of that behind. 

Here are five tips for moving on from a painful past.

Identify Your Pain

If you’ve been living with painful issues for long enough, you may not even remember why they started or why you feel the way you do now. Look back and identify what it is that causes you distress. Does low self-esteem make you feel like you don’t deserve the best in a relationship? Do you struggle to express your needs to your partner and, as a result, never really get what you want out of a relationship?

Remember Who You Were Before

You may have to look far in the past to remember who you were and how you felt before the pain started, but it’s a worthwhile trip down memory lane. Before those initial negative moments, were you a happy, trusting person? If so, try to direct yourself to return to that spot. If you can remember how you felt before, it’s not too late to return to that mode of thinking.

Stop Feeding Your Pain

Sometimes, the only thing holding you back from moving beyond the pain is you. If you’ve got it in your mind that an issue or a hurtful moment that occurred days or even years ago is still fresh, you’ll continue to focus on that no matter what. Force yourself to get past the issue and deal with it head on instead of living with it for any longer. Accurate psychic advice can help you pinpoint what exactly is holding you back.

Focus on the Present

Once you’ve reconnected with your past self and identified the source of painful events, it’s time to focus on the here and now. After all, you can’t change the past, but you can have control over how you deal with personal issues and conduct yourself in the present. When you don’t allow yourself to dwell on the past and instead focus on living in the moment, you’ll find that you don’t even have the time to think about what happened long ago anymore.

Look Toward the Future

Now that you’ve got a handle on the past, start to plan for the future. A tarot reading can reveal what’s to come. You can also take deliberate steps to take care of yourself in the future and make sure you don’t slip back into your old ways of dwelling on painful issues. Instead of staying stuck in your old rut, make plans to be happy, and take specific actions to see your plans through. Visualize where you want to be in the future, and make it happen.

No one should carry around painful baggage forever. Make the decision to leave your painful past behind, and live in the present while planning for a happy future.
