From old problems and past mistakes, to lingering feelings of guilt and regret - best-selling author Guy Finley shows readers how to free themselves from the pain of the past.

Human beings are unique: we are the only creatures that torment ourselves with our own painful memories. We often feel resentment, guilt, discouragement, fear and many other negative emotions as a result of experiences we had long ago.

Guy Finley, author of the new best-seller The Secret of Letting Go, explains that the key to understanding this strange human trait is seeing that “the past” isn’t one thing, but two:

1.    The actual memories stored in our mind
2.    Our relationship to them in the present moment

Once people understand this simple idea, it becomes clear how it is possible – and even easy – to let go of tormenting thoughts and negative feelings that keep us from realizing our maximum potential. As Finley explains, “The only reason that any pain from our past persists is because there is something in us that won’t let it die out naturally.”

Finley, 58, is a living example of the power of “letting go.” His own creative energy is boundless: he is the author of over 36 books and audio programs that have sold over a million copies in 16 languages worldwide. He is Executive Director of the non-profit Life of Learning Foundation; his radio program Letting Go with Guy Finley airs internationally; 400,000 subscribers in 142 countries read his popular weekly Key Lesson e-mails; and he gives over 200 original lectures each year to audiences across the country.
