How to Finally Let Go of the Past and Start Living Lighter

You know that weight you carry? The one that sits in your chest when someone mentions your ex, or the heaviness that creeps in when you remember how your best friend betrayed you, or that knot in your stomach when you replay the worst version of yourself over and over again?
