Whenever you've been hurt by others, it is not easy to process your emotions and let it go. However, also holding onto it isn't easy as it makes the feeling more worse. Resentment can cause mental and physical illness too. So, it is not good in any way.

Not forgiving is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.

So, it seems when things are not great, forgiveness is a way through which you may reduce the pain. So, how could we be mindful to practice mindfulness? That's what I would like to discuss with you.

Hello Awesome Community!! smiley How are we doing?

So, to practice forgiveness, we need to start with understanding forgiveness. Forgiveness means putting off the burden of pain and stress of holding on to the resentment. Just release it. In other words,making peace with whatever happened.

Feel your emotion and label it to forgive yourself better. Until and unless you don't know how you are feeling and what the emotion is, you can't forgive yourself or other.

If the hurt feelings bottled up inside, it not going to work and cause you additional stress. So, whatever the outlets available to you, let it come out and release it from your mind space. Probably you can put it in journal if there is no one you can talk about it.

Shift your focus on something good and start small to make your mind engage in new thoughts and set of activities. Focusing on pain will make you feel it more. Try to focus somewhere else and do something that interests you to keep your mind off from the resentment.

Have patience in practice forgiveness because it may take time to show up the results. Forgiveness isn't the quick solution to fix everything. It's a process so practice more mindfulness and unlock the capacity to forgive.

So, forgiveness is important for us to be mindful of present moment.

What is one thing for which you would want to forgive yourself or someone today? Share with us. Also, do you have some tips and ways to practice forgiveness proactively?

@ASilentObserver

thanks for that great post.

forgiving others is easier to me than forgiving myself for not having acted the way i would like to ethically. mindfulness is a great tool to learn to accept our entire being including that we make mistakes. i guess it has also something to do with non striving for "perfection".
