We can define guilt as the bad feelings of remorse, regret, shame, loss, and so forth, resulting from events, real or imagined, from the past.

Actually, it is also possible for a person to experience guilt from an imagined future event. They vividly imagine doing something they consider would be inappropriate or 'bad' (or not doing something, where the 'not doing' is perceived as a bad thing) and then they feel guilty.

Such is the power of the imagination…

Guilt And Conscience

It's a good thing that humans have a conscience (well, most of us do), it helps us to stop repeating mistakes, or helps to stop us from making them. Having a conscience is a good thing and feeling guilty is a normal human emotion, we all make mistakes from time to time.

Having excessive and prolonged guilty feelings is not a good thing…

Guilt is almost universal. We don't think we have met anyone who has never experienced the emotion. We all have times when we regret doing something, or saying something, or not doing or saying something. We see clients who have somehow got stuck in a rut where they have feelings of overwhelming guilt, and are unable to get on with their lives. All experiences are learning experiences, but you haven't learned the lesson until you have integrated the experiences of the past and moved on.

Hypnotherapy is a Direct Way Of Solving Problems

Our work isn't 'therapy'; it involves the training of your conscious mind, your imagination, to think in more useful and resourceful ways.
