This workbook aims to act as a companion to No Regrets: A Ten Step Program for Living in the Present and Leaving the Past Behind by Hamilton Beazley, Ph.D.
The human experience is, under the best circumstances, complicated. Dr. Beazley states, "We all have regrets. They arise naturally out of life's events and so are woven into the fabric of the human experience. To live is to regret. Regrets arise from unfulfilled expectations, from shattered hopes and lost dreams, from failures and tragedies, mistakes and misjudgments. They are inevitable. But regrets do not have to be harbored-or burdensome. We can let them go."
Unattended regrets can lead to shame, depression, self-harm, and suicide. If you are feeling overwhelmed, there is always help available to you. At the time of this printing, the following resource is there for you:

Be Well,
