We discuss how her work developed through stress training and private practice, and how anger, resentment, guilt, and shame can add to stress and make healing harder.We also talk about the Lionheart Foundation’s prison programs, including the National Emotional Literacy Project for Prisoners and *Houses of Healing*, and how they are designed to help people understand themselves, manage emotions, and take responsibility for change. Robin explains what forgiveness is and is not, and we also cover self-forgiveness, meditation, and practices that support emotional and spiritual growth. https://www.talknetworkradio.com/hosts/right-thinking
