Want to Rewind Your Life for a Do Over?

Dissatisfied with life or lamenting your past?

If so, how far back in time would you have to travel in order to wipe the slate clean?

To what point would you need to rewind?

Would it be back in years or just the last hour?

Are you regretting something you did or said? Do you really think you screwed up?

If we are not careful, we can get quite fixated in replaying something over and over again in our minds.  “What did she mean by that?”  “Why did I say that?” “Why didn’t that work out?” “Why did I make that choice?”

And as we stew and ponder in the past we can build resentment, stress and dis-ease.

Perhaps you are pondering what ifs…  “What if I had made a different choice?”  “What if I could do that over?”

If we are looking over our shoulder, mulling over our past … we are not watching where we are going now.

By rutting into the past, we sap our joy, energy, strength, vitality and  peace of mind.

Let go of the stone
If you don’t want to drown
In the sea of heartache
That’s draggin’ you down
It’s pulling you under
And you keep hangin’ on
If I’m ever gonna save you
Let go of the stone

~ John Anderson  “Let Go of the Stone” Lyrics

Instead of trying to fix the past or fix whats wrong – drop the stone -  let go of the past and elevate above it.

Even if you could change the past and get on a different path -  who knows that it would be better? You would most likely have the same experience if it’s something you need to work through – even if it was with different faces and places. Maybe you are exactly where you need to be.

The past is over. Whatever you would change – you can’t change the past. Let go of the past and start fresh today – from this moment.

A friend of mine has health issues related to smoking.  He regrets that he ever started smoking, but  no matter how deep his regret, he cannot go into the past and change that he started smoking years ago. The past is done. His power is in the now.  He need not think about quitting smoking the rest of his life, or even the next day. But by taking a walk, drinking water, chewing gum, or whatever gets him through just his next craving, he takes control.   As he gets through that moment, he feels empowered.  Each time he breaks through the craving, he builds upon his success and soon finds that he likes feeling empowered more than he likes smoking.

We live moment by moment, feeling our way along.  Decide to feel better now.  Get into your center and align with your inner knowing and allow.

Allow the best to come in. Allow the best to be resolved. Allow the future to unfold in the highest order for the good of all concerned.

Elevate your thoughts by releasing and letting go as you declare:
Divine Order is now established in my life.
Divine Order is now established in my world.

Drop the resistance and let go by elevating your thinking and feeling state. Use whatever tools work for you to break the pattern of thought, release the resistance and elevate your thinking:
journal about it, exercise,  yoga, meditation, visualization, affirmations, prayer, affirmative prayer treatment, seek counseling or go take the dog for a walk.

Acknowledge the present moment and decide to live from this moment in alignment with your highest good.

Stop living with regrets.  Let go of trying to figure everything out. Allow the good to flow in to you and all concerned.

Let go and drop the resistance and set yourself free. Get in the good flow by thinking of something that you are grateful about.

Take a deep breath in…. and out. Feel at peace, as you feel you way into your center. Feel your power as you go within.

Feel joy to align with your good. Think about something that makes you happy, hopeful or elated. Align with your peace and practice holding onto that feeling.

Feel joy as you establish divine order. Let go.
