Think about all the regrets and bad things that have happened to you, that you don’t know about – the time you dropped money or missed out on a life changing opportunity or mistakes you have made that never got your attention. You probably don’t or won’t because you don’t feel much for things that you don’t know that happened to you. So it is possible to feel no emotion about negative things. You have the power to hold no opinion about things, you just need to cultivate it. Regret is much like fear, you have come to your fate by dreading your fate.
I would suggest reinterpretation of those memories into what they did for you or how you learnt to act differently in similar circumstances. Gain value from your experiences. If you would do nothing different then you own your mistakes and accept the consequences without regret.
Can you list the other techniques as well? I want to try whatever I can.
