How to Get Past Your Past

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 15, 2009 -- With many years experience in clinical psychology and wellness coaching, Dr Arlene Unger, PhD (Clinical Psychology; PSY), has written a useful and insightful eBooklet "Getting Past Your Past," available from the Real Psych Solutions Store.

"Most of us haven’t been lucky enough to go through life without some type of traumatic event," according to Dr Unger. "Those events may have involved an unforeseen loss or failure, a missed opportunity, a near fatal accident, or some form of neglect or violence...Behavior problems in the form of panic attacks, depression, eating disorders, chemical abuse, verbal or physical abuse of others, and self-mutilation are common ways in which we overreact when we keep reliving our past traumas."

"If we get caught in a vicious cycle with the past, our emotional growth becomes stunted, making it even harder to move forward with our life," notes Dr Unger.

The solution is to find ways to get closure on these painful events.

"When it comes to the forgiveness part of getting past your past most of us are completely baffled at the thought of excusing another’s thoughtless or bad behavior," says Dr Unger. While forgiveness is a critical part of the process, it is also a very misunderstood part.

The eBooklet is filled with practical advice, checklists, and exercises, and also contains 2 free bonus articles by Dr Unger on other relevant topics ("Embracing Change" and "Living Guilt-Free").
