Why Can't I Let Go Of The Past?  YES you Can!

Some classic reasons we have difficulty letting go of the past include emotional attachment, nostalgia, deviation from a plan, embarrassment, or perhaps not knowing how.  We carry energy in our cells, and releasing something from our past may be both a mental release and an emotional and physical one. There is work to process our layers; sometimes, doing that work can also be overwhelming and time-consuming, and we don't understand the layers. As humans, it's normal to simplify the release process.  You may have been encouraged to write it on paper and burn it during the Full Moon, cut cords of the past, and poof, it's gone. But there is more to the process, which is often why many wonder why they feel they can't release.  Why lingering thoughts and emotions continue to leave us feeling overwhelmed or stuck – and in some cases unsuccessful.  
We have to be ready to release; often, that may take a few iterations of attempts. We need to heal, so thinking we can erase something part of our cellular structure requires healing those cells or creating new cells and new memories.  Emotions tether you to the past and intense emotional experiences create memories that are just as strong. Every time that specific memory is triggered, you can experience the same emotions you felt when that incident happened. These feelings, in turn, keep the memory fresh. It's a vicious cycle.   Each event also creates an energetic thread to our bodies – if we have a strong emotional response, we have a thread that attaches to our emotional body; if we have a solid mental reaction, we have a thread that attaches to our mental body. 

There are times when we may not know the origin of our emotional injuries – it could be a past life, a suppressed or hidden event that we may never uncover the root cause of. And that's okay. It's part of our journey, and accepting this uncertainty is a step towards healing.  It's learning about the past in preparation for a different future.
