Practice forgiveness towards yourself and others from "summary" of The Habit of Holding on to Past Impressions by Sirshree
The key to letting go of past impressions is to practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is not just about letting go of anger or resentment towards others, but also towards ourselves. Often, we hold onto past hurts and mistakes, replaying them in our minds over and over again. This only serves to keep us stuck in the past, preventing us from moving forward.
When we forgive ourselves, we acknowledge that we are human and bound to make mistakes. We accept our imperfections and learn from them, rather than berating ourselves for them. This self-forgiveness allows us to release the guilt and shame that often accompany past actions, freeing us to create a new future for ourselves.
Similarly, when we forgive others, we release the burden of carrying around negative emotions towards them. Holding onto grudges only poisons our own minds and hearts, affecting our relationships and well-being. By practicing forgiveness towards others, we free ourselves from the weight of past grievances, opening up space for compassion and understanding.
Forgiveness is a practice that requires patience and persistence. It is not always easy to let go of past hurts, especially when they run deep. However, by consciously choosing to forgive ourselves and others, we can gradually release the grip of past impressions on our minds.
As we cultivate forgiveness in our lives, we begin to experience a sense of lightness and freedom. We no longer carry the heavy burden of past wounds, allowing us to live more fully in the present moment. By letting go of past impressions through forgiveness, we create space for new possibilities and growth in our lives.
