Heal Past Relationship Wounds: Transform Your Energy and Attract Authentic Love

Dena Gould • January 25, 2025

Is yesterday's pain your today's frequency?

It’s hard to feel safe in any relationship when unresolved pain and emotional wounds linger in our bodies. Healing these wounds isn’t just about revisiting past hurt—it’s about shifting energy, embracing self-compassion, and creating space for love to flourish.

In this post, I’ll share tools and insights to help you heal past relationship wounds, release emotional baggage, and elevate your frequency to attract the love and relationships you truly desire.


Understanding the Impact of Relationship Wounds

When heartbreak, betrayal, or unresolved conflicts go unacknowledged, they create emotional barriers that affect our ability to form and maintain healthy relationships.


How Unprocessed Pain Affects You:

  • Limits Authentic Connections: Past wounds may make it harder to build new, meaningful relationships.
  • Creates Emotional Triggers: Pain can resurface unexpectedly, influencing how we react to others.
  • Repeats Patterns: Old limiting beliefs can subconsciously cause us to repeat undesirable patterns in relationships.


This unprocessed pain becomes part of your energy frequency, subtly influencing your interactions. To heal, we must recognize these triggers as opportunities to shift our beliefs and energy.


Practical Tools to Heal Past Relationship Wounds

Healing starts with awareness and is supported by simple, yet powerful, techniques. Here are some methods you can use to begin releasing emotional pain and reclaiming your power:


1. Self-Reflection: Acknowledge and Shift Limiting Beliefs

When triggered, ask yourself:

  • What belief am I holding that causes this reaction?
  • Where did this belief come from?
  • Is this belief still true for me?

For example:

  • Trigger: A co-worker always needs to be the center of attention.
  • Limiting Belief: "I never matter. I always take a backseat."
  • New Belief: "I have the power to prioritize my desires and feel safe being seen."

By acknowledging and challenging these beliefs, you can shift your energy and create new patterns of interaction.


2. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT  or Tapping)

EFT, also known as tapping is a powerful way to release negative energy and accelerate emotional healing. By gently tapping on specific acupressure points while focusing on your emotions, you can calm your nervous system and release stored pain.


3. Self-Compassion: Rewriting Your Inner Narrative

Replace negative self-talk with compassion. Speak to your inner child with kindness and understanding:

  • Encourage yourself: "I’m allowed to make mistakes and learn."
  • Let go of comparisons: "I am uniquely me, and that is enough."

This shift in inner dialogue creates a foundation for emotional healing and empowerment.


4. Mirror Work: Affirm Love to Yourself

Each morning, look into your left eye in the mirror and repeat affirmations like:

  • “I love you.”
  • “You are worthy of love and joy.”

This practice helps you reconnect with your inner self and boosts self-esteem.


5. Heart Coherence: Align Your Heart and Mind

Heart coherence is a simple yet profound practice:

  • Place your hands on your heart and breathe deeply.
  • Focus on cultivating positive emotions like gratitude, love, or compassion.
  • Visualize moments where you felt loved and appreciated.

This practice reduces stress and increases emotional resilience, helping you align with higher frequencies of love.


6. Loving-Kindness Meditation

Extend compassion to others through acts of kindness:

  • Send gratitude texts or notes to friends and family.
  • Smile at strangers or offer small gestures of kindness.
  • Speak your loved ones’ "love languages" to deepen your connection.

When we shift our energy toward love and kindness, we naturally attract more of it into our lives.


Forgiveness: A Path to Liberation

Forgiveness is one of the most powerful ways to heal past relationship wounds. This includes forgiving others and yourself:

  • Forgive Loved Ones: Understand they acted from their own experiences and limitations.
  • Forgive Yourself: Release guilt and take responsibility for how you choose to feel moving forward.

Ask yourself:

  • Can I forgive this person for the past?
  • Can I forgive myself for carrying this belief for so long?

By doing so, you reclaim your energy and create space for new, empowering beliefs.


Start Your Healing Journey

Healing is a journey, not a race. You don’t need to adopt all these practices at once—start with one or two and build from there. Celebrate your progress along the way and be patient with yourself.

If you’d like to explore these concepts further, I invite you to schedule a session or join our upcoming retreat. Together, we’ll dive deeper into techniques like EFT tapping, Brain Synchronization Therapy, and energy alignment to help you heal, grow, and thrive.
