All of us have some pain from the past, some more than others. And we all have interpretations and beliefs about the world and ourselves that we’ve formed based on those experiences.

It is tempting to think that we cannot heal these things right now, that it might take years of therapy to overcome them, or that we just can never heal and we will always be as we are.

Past events happened to us, and they were very real. But now what might be present with us is the pain, our thoughts and beliefs. Being present with the pain, we can heal it and let it go. Being conscious with our thoughts and beliefs, we can replace them, or simply allow our mind to be clear.
