Do you struggle with letting go of the past?
It is not easy to let go of the past. It can be hard to forgive yourself for your mistakes.
We all want to leave our past behind and move on with our lives.
How do we forgive ourselves?
In this post, I will share my experience and three tips that I have learned about letting go of anger and letting go of the past from hypnotherapy.
It helped me let go of my past and move on with my life.
I have been through so much in the last few years: a break-up, a death, a family crisis, and more.
However, I am finally moving on with my life now because of these three things:
Lovingly accepting my past failings and releasing the desire to fix the past. Thirdly, forgiving the wrongdoers allows me to be present in my life.
Introduction: What is Anger?
Anger is a natural and normal emotion that humans experience.
It is the feeling of being upset or annoyed. Anger is a basic human emotion that can be triggered by different things such as frustration, injustice, and disappointment.
Anger can have many causes: some people are more sensitive to it than others, some people might have anger issues, or they might be dealing with an illness that makes them angry.
Therefore, anger is an especially important emotion and can be helpful in some situations.
It drives people to do things that are good for themselves, such as confront their problems, or stand up for what they believe in.
In other cases, anger can be detrimental.
For example, it might cause someone to act out violently against another person or break something.
It can cause someone to angrily lash out at a loved one.
It is possible for someone to obsess about something and not be able to stop thinking about it. It is also able to make a person feel numb or not care about anything.
What is the Difference Between Resentment and Anger?
Resentment and anger are two completely different emotions.
Resentment is a feeling of displeasure, annoyance, or hostility that is caused by something someone has done or has failed to do.
Anger is an emotion characterized by feelings of intense and passionate displeasure.
Resentment is a feeling that can be directed at oneself or others.
It is often the result of the belief that one’s expectations have been unfulfilled or that one has been treated unjustly.
Anger, on the other hand, is a response to a perceived provocation by another person, animal, object, event, or natural phenomenon.
What Makes Resentment Worse?
As I stated before resentment is a feeling of anger or displeasure at someone who has done something that one feels should not have been done.
It can also be a feeling of ill will, spite, or hostility towards someone.
Resentment is an emotion that often causes people to feel bitter and vindictive.
There are many things that can cause resentment.
One might resent the person who has a better life than they do or the person who has more money than them.
Someone might resent their boss for being too demanding or their co-worker for being more talented than them.
To resent is to be unhappy with someone’s behavior, or the person themselves.
It can also mean having anger towards someone for doing something that you find wrong.
A person might feel resentment towards their boss because they believe the boss is too demanding of them at work.
Resentment is a feeling of anger, indignation, or bitterness towards someone or something.
What are Some Ways to Let Go of the Anger?
So it is that anger is a natural human emotion that we all experience at some point in our lives.
It can be difficult to deal with anger and not let it take over, but there are healthy ways to do so.
The first step is to recognize the signs of anger in yourself or others and know what triggers your anger.
There are many ways to deal with anger, including deep breathing, taking a time out, exercising, talking it out with someone you trust, meditating, or hypnotherapy.
There are also unhealthy coping mechanisms like drinking alcohol or engaging in risky behaviors.
How Does One Let Go of the Anger and Resentment?
The first step to getting rid of resentment is to forgive the person who hurt you.
You will not be able to do this if you are still holding on to your anger and resentment.
Forgiveness does not mean that you condone what the person did or that you are going to forget it.
It just means that you are no longer going to hold on to your anger and resentment towards them.
This is a challenging task for many people, but there are some things that can help make it easier.
1. One way of doing this is by writing down all the reasons why it is hard for you to forgive them and then slowly working through each one until they become unimportant in comparison with the benefits of forgiveness.
For example, if someone has hurt you a lot in the past, it may be hard for you to forgive them because of how much they hurt you in the past.
However, when we look at what forgiving them would give us back, like our own peace of mind, then it may be worth it to forgive the person.
2. Forgiveness is a process.
Sometimes forgiving someone does not happen overnight, especially if that person has done something like hurt you a lot in the past and you never got over it so you can move on with your life.
It can take time for you to truly forgive them to realize that they are not the same person they were when they hurt you so much before and that previously painful situation does not have to influence your life anymore.
One way to help yourself through the process of forgiveness is with the help of a spiritual practice like yoga.
In yoga, you can visualize yourself getting rid of bad memories and feeling lighter in your body as they leave you.
You might also make time for self-care practices like meditation or journaling to find ways to forgive yourself if you have done something wrong.
Holding onto guilty feelings can cause resentment and anger towards other people, which causes more pain and suffering.
Releasing deep-rooted negative emotions like resentment, guilt, anger, and regret can improve your mental health.
How to Live a Happier Life When You’ve Let Go of the Past
We can say that the past is not as important as we think it is.
We cannot change what happened in the past, but we can learn from it and move on with our lives.
It is impossible to live a happier life when you have let go of the past without learning from it.
Some people feel that they need to carry their past mistakes with them for the rest of their lives.
However, this can be a huge burden and it can have a negative impact on your mental and physical health.
The first step in letting go of your past mistakes is to forgive yourself with love.
It can be hard to do this but if you are able to do so, you will feel much more liberated and happier.
Some people find it helpful to write down everything that they are carrying around with them and then let go of those thoughts by either burning them or throwing them away.
As humans, we are not perfect.
We are bound to make mistakes and commit errors.
What is important is that we take responsibility and learn from our mistakes.
If we do not let go of our past, it will keep haunting us in the future.
It is important to let go of the past and move on. But it is not easy to do so, especially when it comes to regretful decisions we make in our lives.
We all have regrets from our pasts, but what we need to do is not let those regrets dictate how we live our lives now.
It is important to remember that life goes on and that there are many opportunities for us in the future if we just let go of the past and move on.
Conclusion: How Hypnotherapy Can Help You Let Go of the Past and Move on with Your Life
Hypnotherapy is a form of therapy that uses hypnosis to change the way a person thinks, feels, and behaves.
It is often used to help people with stress-related problems, sleep difficulties, and phobias.
Hypnotherapy is also known as hypnosis. The Greek word “hypnos,” which means sleep, is where the word “hypnosis” originated.
Hypnotherapy usually involves relaxation techniques and deep breathing exercises.
These are designed to make the person feel very relaxed and comfortable while they are in a hypnotic state.
Some examples of hypnosis are hypnotic scripts that can be used at home or in the doctor’s office.
This is usually a calming and relaxing set of instructions for managing anxiety, stress, or pain.
Hypnotic regression uses guided imagery to explore memories from childhood and unlock how those memories may affect present-day life experiences.
Hypnotic suggestion can be used in a therapeutic context to target specific behaviors and thoughts that are problematic.
Hypnosis is the process of putting a person into a trance, or heightened level of suggestibility, which is then used by an individual or group to seek solutions, information, or inspiration.
Self-hypnosis is the act of putting oneself into a trance without the use of outside influence from another person.
Hypnosis involves focusing your attention on internal mental processes and stimuli rather than on external, physical phenomena.
Anger management therapy is an important part of treatment for those who have anger problems.
It helps us name why we are angry, as well as what triggers our anger so that we can deal with them more appropriately in the future.
It can be difficult to know where your anger is coming from. Sometimes we are angry because someone has done something to trigger our anger, which can make the situation seem very personal and intense.
Other times we are not sure why we are angry, and it comes out of nowhere.
Hypnotherapy for anger management often takes place in a session that lasts between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on how deeply the person needs to explore their feelings and trauma.
During the session, the person is encouraged to relax and focus on breathing or allow themselves to drift off into a hypnotic sleep state.
The hypnotist will supply gentle suggestions that help people regain control of their emotions and not act impulsively in anger as easily.
These programs are now available for download as MP3s so that you can do a session whenever it is most convenient for you.

Resentment and anger are two distinctive feelings but often misinterpreted. Before now I couldn’t tell the difference between these two because the feeling was kind of similar. However in any occasion, they should be handled with caution when the situation arises. Thank you for such a wonderful piece of article it was sure helpful
Hi Apexvilla,
I’m happy to help. Yes. I have to admit that as I put this together and got it ready for publication, my eyes were watering. Although I was writing it, I eventually realized that I needed to follow my own advice and let go of my anger and the past. Yes, I am aware that many people misinterpret their feelings of resentment toward their parents or others as anger. However, resentment is coming from someone’s action that they did or failed to do than anger which is more provoked by someone.
I agree that forgiving the past helps me take a hold of my life. It is a challenging task to let go of offences, but letting go of offences is highly rewarding. You will be helping yourself by forgiving others. Thank you for coming up with how to help others forgive and let go of offences. I will like to learn and read more about anger management from your desk
Hi Parameter,
You are hilarious and kind. Since tears are a healing treatment, I was truly sobbing and letting it all out. I found it hard to believe that the cosmos had picked me to discuss this now. Even if I didn’t want to keep going, I had to.
In order to be truthful, I had to say, “You are furious, you have resentment, and you act like everything is fine when it is not.” You’re not alright. It’s so incredible, because as they say, the first thing is to the preacher, and then it is to the congregation.
I can attest from personal experience that this is something I needed to learn when I was writing the blog. The individual who writes more than anybody else is always the one who learns the lesson. It’s just how things are.
Many musicians have dealt with sadness in their work. I once heard about Michael Jackson, who cried every time he recorded “She’s out of my life,” which Quincy Jones made him repeat singing the song 30 times. It wasn’t simply a song, it was his heart and soul in the song. I’m not writing a blog; rather, I’m showcasing who I am as a person on earth and it’s as deep as the ocean.
1-I love the design of your site. And this topic hits home to me. Not necessarily the anger aspect, but letting go and trying to move on.Your explanations of anger and resentment are on point. Sometimes, it’s very difficult to understand or differentiate the 2, but you did it beautifully here. I find (with my children) that they use anger as a cover or block for sadness or fear, or even confusion. That is something Id like to get a better grasp of so I can better help them through things. I have never been hypnotized, but have tried meditation! I imagine, they are similar in the aspect of relaxing and breathing. Hypnosis has so many benefits but I think you touched on a crucial one here! Thank you for sharing
Hello KellyAnn,
I greatly appreciate it. As I mentioned in the blog, I was in tears as I wrote this since I am also guilty of it. It gives me great joy to write about this now. I had to compose it for myself in order to get well. I participate in hypnosis sessions using the links provided because I wish to maintain the purity of my spirit and soul. I can’t let anyone get away with it or justify my own bad behavior.
To affect change in others, we must first alter ourselves. I’m overjoyed that I could possibly be helpful to anyone on the internet. Given that energy is everything and that we need to protect our spirit from anger, I sincerely hope that you can find healing through a program involving hypnosis or another technique similar to meditation. Because I am an empath, I avoid watching the news on television because it affects me. Yes, you can continue your journey and get that totally gone, or you can check out the links here on the website.
This year, I moved on from those that drained my energy, and I have to say that this was the best choice I have ever made. I still adore them, just from a distance.
Hey, Georgiana thank you so much. I commend you for concerning yourself with issues of this nature. I have seen the destructive nature of anger. A lot of people need orientation about anger management and letting go of the past.
You recommended Hypnotherapy as a way to deal with unpleasant past issues. You defined it as “a form of therapy that uses hypnosis to change the way a person thinks, feels, and behaves”. You went ahead to state that it “helps people with stress-related problems, sleep difficulties, and phobias”.
Now, personally, I am going through a lot of physical and psychological stress right now. Do you think I need the therapy?
Hi Harmony,
This is what my research on hypnotherapy has taught me, and I appreciate your views. You can see if it’s something you want to attempt as an alternative therapy by clicking the link and finding out more information and conducting more research, but I would suggest you do both.
For you to see how that works for you, the website I propose with my link provides a sample. I was inspired to learn more about hypnosis after witnessing how the hypnotherapist was able to help a client who was struggling in this life because of how she hurt someone in a past life. I was mind blown.
I have that blog on Reincarnation with Damien and you can find out more online about him. All of those hypnotherapists are wonderful and now they recorded their technique on audio MP3s to make it available to everyone anywhere. In order to have a private session it is hundreds of dollars.
I first started the sessions to help with my sleep, and it is working and so now I have a blog. A week after my brother passed, I started writing this blog during a very trying time. I have so much additional energy that I really enjoy it and have started writing articles to encourage others to give it a try if they have any other problems because hypnosis is known to be helpful.
Find out what it has accomplished for phobias and behaviors by conducting research online. It transforms lives, and right now I need my life to transform naturally without the use of any drugs. I hope that helps Thanks~
This is a great topic for any of us who are going through negative emotions. It can be natural or can be triggered by circumstances or persons. It can happen in your home, life, or job.
No matter where and how it happens, it impacts your living and mental health, then eventually it takes over your life.
You see many of these instances during Covid when people lost life of family and friends leaving you in grief. You see workers lay off impacting the finance of a person where he/she has to take care of the family and kids. You get frustrated, and angry when it happens without you making any visible mistakes.
You need to restart your mind fully forgetting these triggers, anger, and frustration. It is easier said than done.
I admire you for introducing hypnosis as a solution and many other easily doable techniques.
One of the ways that have helped people who trusts God is surrendering themselves as a whole to HIM.
Take a walk in fresh air breathing in and out until you feel mentally healthy. Enjoy the negative ion near a waterfall. Look at the vast universe on a sea. It does deplete your negative emotions. The garden helps, and pets help to make you feel healthier. These are my ways.
Controlling your mind is difficult but doable with practice.
Hi Anusuya,
I want to add that I appreciate your response and that, of course, God comes first and is present in all of our healing decisions. For people who want outside assistance, which is OK, this is a natural treatment talk therapy. I believe that God uses the natural world, including animals and the ocean, to cure people.
To permanently cement a new pattern of belief and for our life to react as quickly and effectively as possible, we could utilize a hypnotist speaking to our subconscious mind. I support all-natural methods of self-love and self-healing as well as professional therapy to help you get over whatever it was that caused you harm and recover.
The path that someone chooses to pursue is up to them, but in the end, the cure is what I pray for. Because you deserve it, I hope you succeed in letting go of the past and moving on. Thank you,
