Carrying around emotional baggage gets awfully heavy after a while. Those negative feelings can stop you from becoming the person you want to be. It could also leave you with resentments, problems trusting others and health issues. Emotional clearing is vital to live a happy life.
Instructions
1. Dismiss denial. Recognize and admit that the emotional pain has caused some problems in your life. The first step in moving on is to see what you have to work on.
2. Acknowledge the way you feel about it. Whatever caused you to feel the way you do must be dealt with. Become vulnerable and allow yourself to feel sad, angry or have a good cry.
3. Quit blaming yourself and others. To do some effective emotional clearing you have to stop blaming. It's time to move forward and let go of the resentments.
4. Practice forgiveness. Forgiving others is more for your benefit than the other person. It is about healing and becoming whole again.
5. Grieve the loss of someone you love. Many emotional issues deal with death. Allow yourself to feel the pain of loss. Write down what you want to say and let out all those feelings on paper.
6. Clearing away emotional baggage can be done with a spiritual approach. Seek spirituality in your life. Read meditations to help with psychological healing or join a church or a support group.
7. Get professional help. If you aren't able to clear away emotional pain on your own, don't be afraid to ask for help. You are not a failure or a weakling.
