Peace of Mind
Forgiveness has been shown to bring peace to our mind. It actually saves, conserves energy. Forgiveness eases stress, we no longer recycle the angry thoughts. Giving and receiving forgiveness both have health benefits. When we make forgiveness a regular part of spiritual practice, we start to notice our all relationships blossoming.
Forgiveness is a two way street
Forgiveness has to flow in both directions. There are situations where you cause pain and others cause you pain. When we forgive, we start to separate our pain from thiers and to heal ourselves emotionally. We are much more comfortable finding fault in other people and then forgiving it.
Forgiving ourselves
Sometimes, when we feel shame or guilt for what we have done in the past it’s because those actions no longer reflect our values. The reason we are hurting over our past is because we have made progress. We did the best we could then, but we can do better now. What could be better than moving forward? We are already winning. We are already crushing and nailing it. When we accept the reality, the fact that we can't undo the past, we begin to accept our own imperfections and mistakes, forgive ourselves, and, in doing so, open ourselves up to emotional healing.
Thanks for your precious time.
