Veterinary Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - Wallowing in Regret
Do you beat yourself up with regrets about the past?
Regret is a very mean thing to do to yourself – you’re creating sadness and helplessness and hopelessness inside your brain, which then sets up the chemical state of those emotions inside your body, doing long-term damage to your system.
Think about it – you’re powerless to change the past. When you indulge in regrets you accomplish nothing except to damage your mental and physical wellbeing.
Sure, bad things happen, and sometimes we even did them. Instead of entertaining regrets, when memories visit either distract yourself or find a way to learn and grow from the bad experience.
Your body will thank you for it!
