Forgiveness is something you do for yourself, be it forgiveness of others or self-forgiveness. Both can and will manifest inner freedom and peace.

In my 25-plus years of experience connecting with people all over the world, I have come to believe that forgiveness is the crown jewel of personal freedom.

There is a formula for forgiveness that includes grieving, understanding, empathizing, connecting, and releasing compassionately.

Remember, whether seeking self-forgiveness or forgiving others, the ability to free yourself from the past and the judgment, guilt, or shame attached to it is a healing journey towards peace.
