If the guilt keeps pulling you back
The deeper work is here
When the same decision, moment or memory keeps returning, understanding why can only take you so far. This is somewhere to actually work through it: what happened, what you blame yourself for, what hindsight has changed, and the memories that have become tangled with guilt.
