past mistakes

Hi guys,
lately my mind has been waderring into mistakes i made in past. Like embarrasing stuff or stupid things i did when i was young and reckless. It keeps playing back in my head and i cant shake those thoughts off. Those things dont matter anymore and i have learnt from them, but it still bothers me and disturb my thinking.
I dont know what started this, and there are no consequences or anything. For example i keep thinking about stupid thing i said like 6 years ago, and i still beat myself up on it.
Is there any ritual or something i could do to let go of that? Should i write it down on a paper and burn it or something?

Thanks

Try to find things to do that require your full attention or keep your mind busy, it is what I try to do.

Personally I would suggest trying to meditate on it? As in, focusing on staying in the present and getting over past mistakes, or general upsetting or uncomfortable events.
I actually have this problem a lot, and I just like to focus and remind myself that I can't prevent something from happening, if it's already happened! I will repeat things like "I am in the present", "Worrying about this doesn't help me", or something along those lines.
Writing it down on paper and burning it (as you mentioned) can be a good way of letting go of it too! If you think that will help you then you should do it (safely of course).
You can also incorporate that into a spell, in whatever way you see fit. You can message me if you want help with that, or if you already have a good idea then good!
Try not to beat yourself up about it too much, and I hope you start to feel better about it too!

I get where you're coming from. I, through mediations and rituals, built up another side to myself: Reaver. Once it was finished, all I did was take off my old mask and put on the new one.
It's a similar process to creating a spirit/ servitor. If you can do that them you'll be fine with this technique.
Its tiring to maintain your new mask, at first. Overtime you'll just become your new front.
