Releasing Our Regret - Letting It Go Meditation

How I wish I'd said or done that thing differently. Or not done or said anything at all! Our regrets can be both big and small and always a common theme: "If only I hadn't....." And we all know how 'sticky' this part of regret can be.

Without healing and releasing our regrets we can find ourselves stuck repeating unhelpful patterns. Low self-esteem, difficulty making decisions, doubts about the path we are on or would like to be on, and more.

This powerful meditation with affirmations guides us into finally and sincerely letting go with ease and compassion.

Listen as often as you like and notice the positive changes naturally happen as you let your regrets go. It works, it really does!

Hello, My name is Autumn and in today's meditation we're releasing trapped regrets. Together we will embrace compassion and a new sense of freedom. So find a quiet comfortable place where you can relax turning off all notifications on your device. You may sit up or lie down whichever is most comfortable for you in this moment. Take the time you need for this. As you get comfortable I'll share a couple of suggestions to help you connect with this experience.
