All too often we walk around with the burdens of the past on our back. Perhaps that’s one reason back pain is so common nowadays. People are not only carrying the weight of the world on their backs, but they are also carrying the weight of their past as well. It’s like a modular backpack – you just keep adding modules to put more “stuff” in. And that stuff is our regrets, our hurts, our failures, losses and anything else we’ve experienced and accumulated over the years. Everyone talks about decluttering. It’s even a business endeavor now-teaching people how to declutter. But who talks about or teaches how to declutter your life. There are wise people who do equate the two and it would be smart to seek them out. Many times when you declutter your house, you end up feeling lighter and being happier and sometimes you can’t figure out why. The reverse happens too. When you’ve grown in some fashion AND recognize it, you may get a spurt of energy and find yourself cleaning and discarding. Do you really need all those bad memories or can you throw them out and replace them with good ones? Do you have to hold on to the regrets? Of course not. So why are you continuing to regret something? What does it do for you? Use the questioning method to begin to release all those old burdens you’re carrying around. Take them out of the backpack and examine them closely. Can you find the trashcan, lift its lid and deposit some of this old “stuff” inside, leaving it to be picked up with all the other trash this week?
