25 Forgiveness Affirmations
In my 30-year personal development journey, there have been no higher hurdles than those situations where I had to forgive and forget.
Our egos resist forgiveness and our popular culture mirrors that. The prevailing ideology is that you should get even or get people back.
Forgiveness is often seen as weak or enabling the bad actors. In those rare moment where forgiveness is allowed, we are counseled that we can cautiously forgive, but we must never forget.
Wow! Is there a more relevant example of our lizard brain reacting to the saber-tooth tiger in the weeds?
Forgiveness is not only hard. It's also necessary if you are to release the burdens of your past and embrace your future. Ignore your ego and the conventional wisdom. Do the challenging work of forgiving others and especially yourself.
These affirmations, listened to regularly, will help infuse your mind with a mindset that not only accepts the power of forgiveness, but puts it into practice regularly.
Wherever you are on your journey today, remember you’re a one-in-a-trillion miracle.
