Hello dear friends of Project HOPE, I wish everyone was well.
Forgiveness is an issue that has progressively boomed, research conducted over the past decade shows its impact on physical and psychological health, for this reason it is increasingly important to recognize the benefits of forgiveness, in order to achieve comprehensive well-being.
And what is forgiveness? There are many opinions and positions regarding forgiveness, most of whom agree that it represents the ability to free oneself from resentment or resentment caused by the actions of others, which make it difficult to continue evolving and moving forward.
In this post I share with you some reviews of renowned specialist in this topic that will help us reflect and guide us in search of some answers.
Benefits of forgiveness
The first thing I want to highlight is that the most favored of forgiveness is ourselves, that is, who forgives, and much more if it includes self-forgiveness.
A reliable example of this is Nelson Mandela, recognized worldwide for leading major socio-political changes in South Africa in a very turbulent period, noted the following:
Forgiveness frees the soul, removes fear, that's why it's such a powerful weapon.
In this sense, Louise Hay and Everett Worthington, authors of numerous publications and therapeutic activities on this topic, consider that forgiveness is the basis of healing and requires the willingness and will to do so.
They also indicate that it facilitates getting rid of the heavy burdens of the past that predispose and limits the possibilities of enjoying the present.
We want to punish others for what they did to us; however, it is we who repeat the story over and over again in our own minds. It’s silly for us to punish ourselves in the present because someone hurt us in the past. Louise Hay
Based on the above and my experience, forgiveness is a choice and decision that involves a process of self-healing that merits responsible and compassionate review in search of reconciliation and personal growth.
Who to forgive? and How do you do that?
One of the most important aspects of forgiveness is to identify whom to forgive. In some cases it is easy in others it is more complex, because it requires reflection even professional help. The most amazing thing is that we usually have to start with ourselves.
Of course, it is easier said than done, but the first step is to recognize that it is necessary and beneficial for those who forgive, and also for those involved.
Even though there are various options, techniques, procedures for forgiveness, it is a personal process with many nuances that are influenced by individual and social characteristics, so it varies according to each case and circumstance.
The best thing to do is to live your own experience without prejudice, haste or comparison, giving it the importance it deserves, and if necessary ask for professional help to guide and facilitate it. We decide whether we want to forgive or not, being willing and convinced is fundamental.
I hope this publication will help you, invite you to reflect and share the benefits of forgiveness.
See you soon dear friends of ProjectHope.

Hi dear @raizayanez
I am particularly of the opinion that one of the most important practices necessary for personal growth and inner peace is forgiveness.
Resentment, hatred and resentment are burdens too heavy to allow human beings to move forward, they must be freed from them in order to achieve it.
However, as you say in your post, it's not easy, but it's not impossible either.
Great reading, thank you for sharing.
Regards.
Hi dear @janettyanez, I share your opinion although sometimes it is difficult to forgive, it is necessary to do it for one's own well being.
Regards and success
I do forgive but the problem now is forgetting. Nice read though.

Hello friend!
I totally agree with you that forgiveness is a very personal decision and that we must begin by forgiving ourselves to forgive those who we consider have hurt us in order to be able to live without weights in the present. Besides, resentment is a very ugly feeling that brings illnesses, greetings!
Hi @yusvelasquez, I share your opinion, not forgiving leads to negative emotional burdens such as resentment.
Thank you friend for your comment, greetings, see you soon.

Great article. Any insult is a fixation on the events of the past. Living in the past never become happy in the present (my words, coined specifically for your message).
