“Painful emotions such as regret can be powerful sources of inspiration,” writes Jennifer Taitz in the Smarter Living section of the New York Times on February 7, 2019.<\/p>\n
She reports that researchers have found obsessing over regrets has a negative impact on mood and sleep, can increase impulsivity, and increase the risk of binge eating and misusing alcohol.<\/p>\n
Taitz writes, “As a clinical psychologist, one of my most important tasks in helping people lead healthy, happy and meaningful lives is to teach them evidence-based strategies to manage their emotions. That includes how to use regrets to motivate them.”<\/p>\n
