Practice forgiveness towards yourself and others from "summary" of Good Inside by Dr. Becky Kennedy
Forgiveness is a powerful force that can transform our relationships with ourselves and others. When we hold onto anger and resentment towards ourselves, we create a barrier to self-compassion and growth. Similarly, when we hold onto grudges against others, we limit our capacity for connection and understanding. Forgiveness towards ourselves means acknowledging our mistakes and imperfections without judgment or blame. It means recognizing that we are human, and therefore, we are bound to make mistakes. By forgiving ourselves, we can let go of guilt and shame, and instead, cultivate self-compassion and self-love. Forgiveness towards others involves recognizing that everyone is capable of making mistakes. It means understanding that holding onto anger and resentment only hurts ourselves in the long run. By forgiving others, we free ourselves from the burden of carrying around grudges and allow ourselves to move forward with a sense of peace and understanding. Practicing forgiveness is not about excusing harmful behavior or pretending that hurtful actions didn't happen. It is about choosing to let go of the anger and resentment that only serve to weigh us down. It is about releasing ourselves from the cycle of blame and judgment that keeps us stuck in a place of negativity. Forgiveness is a gift that we can give ourselves and others. It is a way to break free from the chains of the past and move forward with a sense of lightness and freedom. By practicing forgiveness towards ourselves and others, we create space for healing, growth, and connection in our lives.
