Forgiveness
HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Forgiveness is for ourselves not for the other person(s). If we are harboring resentments and grudges with people in our lives it's like pointing the finger and wanting them to suffer while we drink the poison. The hardest thing to do is forgive ourselves. Usually, we will blame then eventually forgive another person. Then we will blame and eventually forgive God. But ourselves? It's important to be gentle with ourselves for if we cannot forgive ourselves it becomes more difficult to forgive others. I have several different processes of forgiveness that will ultimately set us free! And, by the way, forgiveness does not mean forget. We learn from our own and others character defects. So sometimes it means we forgive and change the nature of our relationship with a person so we don't put ourselves in that or similar situations again.

Michelle Peacock

Forgiveness is often confused with trust. Forgiveness involves giving up expectations, acceptance of the situation, and compassion for self and others.

Forgiveness
Dr. Susan E. Schumacher
Licensed Professional Counselor, DA, LPC, LCPC, CCTP, EMDR Clinician
Gentle loving kindness for yourself is a foundation for beginning to explore forgiveness, which, sometimes, involves giving up the wish that the past could be different. At your pace, we will explore issues surrounding the challenges that lead to difficult circumstances, betrayals or traumas. We will be cautious to avoid false forgiveness or a rush to forgive before you are ready, and begin to understand what happened to you and how you would like to process that experience.

Forgiveness
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
It is so easy to hold on to anger, resentment, self-criticism, rage, guilt, shame, and negative views of ourselves and others, yet all the research suggests that letting go and engaging in forgiveness is the healthiest solution for the one who forgives. It is hard to learn to forgive the self and others, but I believe we are all capable of working through that which keeps us stuck in the painful feelings and moving to a place of forgiveness.
