Forgiveness and How to Practice It | Letting Go of Unnecessary Anger

On today’s episode we’re going to talk about why forgiveness is important, how you can do it in a simple way, and the impact it can have on your life if you do it regularly. “Holding on to grudges is like holding hot coal in your hand, thinking it’s hurting someone else, but it’s only burning yourself.” 0:48 We discuss how to start on the path of forgiveness by first creating a list and visualizing yourself forgiving the person you want to forgive. Forgiveness isn’t just a mental thing, but it’s also a physical thing, which is why we need to practice it out loud and use external assistance to help us forgive others.

“It’s more effective if you say it out loud because the spoken word is very powerful. The words we speak are more powerful than our thoughts. If you’re practicing and you’re in bed, there’s someone beside you and you don’t wanna say it out loud, just practice it in your head if that’s the starting point for you.” 7:41
