S2E6 - Choosing Forgiveness

When sayings like “forgive and forget" are commonplace, being quick to forgive someone without ever really tending to your own hurt feelings, or letting someone back into your life despite your better judgment. For these reasons (and more), forgiveness can be a challenging and  commonly misunderstood quality. Forgiveness doesn’t condone the past, doesn’t mean you need to stay connected to anyone who has caused you pain, nor is weak or naive. It takes time and is really about not leaving anyone out of your heart, including yourself, for any hurt that may have been caused.• Guided by Dawn Mauricio• Music by Drew Bathory• This meditation is part of the meditation course “50 Meditations to Practice Awareness, Acceptance, and Peace”• Enjoyed this meditation?
