Letting Go of Resentments: Practical Tips for Inner Peace

Resentments form when people get angry toward a person, institution, or situation, and steadfastly hold on to that anger.
Ever felt weighed down by old grudges? In this episode of The Sober Therapist SoberSoul Recovery Podcast, Lynn Matti tackles the heavy burden of resentments and offers practical ways to lighten your emotional load. Resentments, often tied to past anger, can fester and impact your mental health and relationships. Lynn breaks down how these negative feelings form and why they stick around, giving you a clear understanding of their roots.
She shares a variety of strategies to help you let go, starting with identifying your emotions using tools like a feelings wheel. Cognitive distortions, such as black-and-white thinking and mind-reading, also play a role in keeping resentments alive, and Lynn explains how to spot and challenge these unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness practices, empathy development, and even seeking professional help are some of the actionable steps she recommends for overcoming these toxic emotions.
Forgiveness is another key element Lynn touches on, acknowledging its complexity but highlighting its importance in healing. This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone looking to move past old hurts and find greater peace and happiness. Tune in to discover how you can start shedding those emotional weights today.
