Developing a level of compassion & forgiveness for yourself with Jock Brocas

We cannot forgive anyone unless we love and forgive ourselves. Evidential Spiritual Medium and best-selling author Jock Brocas joins The Wake Up To Real Love podcast to share his journey from the monastery becoming the spiritual mentor to leaders and change makers. Discover how to forgive yourself, why you must overcome grief to learn and how you must accept yourself empathetically.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Be aware of the trials, tribulations and falsehoods that you will come up against in life. People often think that in grief you can heal, but the reality is that it's impossible to heal through grief because grief is a journey and development of the soul. You don't heal through grief at all, you come to a level of acceptance. Grief becomes our greatest teacher if you are honest and accepting of it. You will learn more when you experience a loss or trauma because until then you will not truly understand the capacity of grief and what can be discovered within it. Learn to accept yourself and the things you have done wrong in the past. If you’re able to accept a level of empathy with yourself and understand that guilt is a behaviour and emotion, you can uncover an empathetic acceptance and awareness of your journey. You may not heal from trauma but you can accept it. Forgiveness is not a skill that you develop or get better at. It is not temporary, forgiveness is a divine power that is inherent in all of us and you have freedom of choice to wield that power or not.   BEST MOMENTS “I would go to church every day but the interesting thing was that as much as I was indoctrinated into a dogmatic faith system, I couldn't help but question it.” “We all are students.” “I learned more when I lost my father because I probably didn't understand grief to the capacity that I then discovered.” “Forgiveness is something that you develop even more through awareness, compassion, understanding yourself and loving yourself.“   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jock-Brocas/e/B002BMK9VU%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share   CONTACT METHODhttps://www.instagram.com/[email protected] ABOUT THE HOST Dawn Rishárd, M.A. with 20 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Marriage and Family Systems, I empower people to release the past, open their hearts, and receive the love they desire.
