FORGIVENESS

For the longest time, I was upset at my mom, myself, and others. She had passed on when I was 27 years old.

I felt that she should have done a better job of practicing self-care and self-love. It was early on in my spiritual training. Little did I know my anger was causing me to suffer in those areas as well.

The cool thing about personal development is that when you are ready, you can learn how to improve an area of your life. I called myself out several years ago when I decided I wanted to become a better version of myself. I committed to living a life of forgiveness and appreciation. It was time to drop the junk and get out of the mental funk.

Forgiveness is a powerful mindset tool. I didn't just forgive my mom. I forgave everyone, including myself. And let me tell you, the release felt great. How did I do this? I used a forgiveness release exercise that enables you to move forward and embrace the present moment without the baggage of the past.

No more junk in the mental trunk. How about you? Is there an opportunity for you to forgive someone? If you were like me a few years ago, you had some baggage that needed to be released because it was no longer serving you.
