How To Forgive
Why does it seem that so much of our pain, anger, resentment, and frustration stems from things that happened in the past?
It could have been something someone did, something we did to ourselves, or a dark and difficult experience we walked through.
What would happen if you were able to find a way to forgive that person, situation or yourself and be at peace?
Growing up, I learned at a young age how empowering forgiveness was in my life.
Learning to not hold a grudge, point a finger at someone else for their “wrongs” or continue to replay a toxic experience again and again in my mind.
This allowed me to cultivate deeper relationships with my close family members.
It taught me how to find a greater love and appreciation for myself.
It is easy to say but requires real work to make it a part of your life.
In this Minute of Mindfulness, we’ll explore how we can start the process of forgiving the seemingly unforgivable.
Minute of Mindfulness
Are You Willing?
Are you willing to take a step towards freedom and forgiveness?
Are you willing to release the accumulation of anger and start the process of healing?
If so, you are on a pathway to peace that can lead you towards more happiness, compassion, and joy.
If you’re unwilling, then you’ll continue to remain a prisoner of your mind.
The choice is yours.
The Day of Opportunity
Make a choice to mentally forgive today. If necessary, make a call and let someone know you forgive them.
Remember, you can forgive from a distance.
If you need to forgive yourself, take time to be still, and shift your thoughts towards forgiveness.
The best way to forgive yourself is self-acceptance, self-respect, and self-love.
Release what no longer serves you today, this is the time.
Peace. Happiness. Compassion. Respect.
