There are many things that we can feel ashamed or guilty about. Although it might not be quite the same distinction for everyone, I believe that shame is something that relates to us assessing our behaviour and judging ourselves and guilt is from assessing the effect our behaviour had on another person or people. So obviously many behaviours cause us to feel both, but there are many things that happen where we wrongly feel bad about ourselves, when actually it was another person who behaved badly.
For example, if we are in an abusive relationship, we may feel ashamed and judge ourselves for staying. We may end up cheating and feel guilty. However, if you had been happy in the relationship and your partner had treated you really well, you are very unlikely to have cheated.
However, I have a slightly more spiritual approach and believe that unhealed past lives can cause a lot of bad behaviour in our current life.
I have found that many people who have affairs, have known the person before in previous lives. Often where there are love triangles, this has happened in past lives, although not always with the same dynamic. I believe that love spells can create permanent attachments to someone – causing obsession, delusions, affairs and even stalking.
So in order to bounce back after shame or guilt, the root causes of those feelings need to be cleared, spiritual entanglements need to be broken a and a process of forgiveness and compassion needs to completed.
