Guilt sits in the hearts of so many, but finding yourself deep in something you are passionate about will separate you from pain, suffering, and anxiety. It doesn't matter what you feel guilty about; focusing on something that makes you happy can always help to separate yourself from from the issue, long enough to ask for forgiveness, offer forgiveness, or be forgiven. It's like sitting outside of yourself, seeing your life like a sitcom. When you focus on something with enough passion it is a natural way to separate and relax. It doesn't matter what it is you are passionate about, as long as it involves activity that makes you happier than anything else at the moment.
I am taking a quilting class and I know now that this works, as I have felt it and resolved it by facing it headlong after allowing myself the time to focus on my quilting.
Find a passion, activate it...and see how it helps. Don't just take my word for it...try it.
