Toxic emotions that are held tightly get buried deep down and continue to affect our behavior, temperament and mood long after the details of a particular episode are over. Living lightly means being willing to become conscious of our tendency to re-hash, amplify and relive the pain of unwanted outcomes. This doesn’t mean we should deny what happened, pretend we don’t have feelings or spin it so we feel better. It does mean we need to: accept what happened, feel it, grieve it if we need to and…
Let it go.
