Transcription The Power of Forgiveness: Releasing Energy and Healing
Forgiveness as an Act of Personal Liberation
Contrary to the idea that not forgiving is a selfish act, we would argue that forgiveness is, in fact, a profoundly beneficial act for oneself, almost "selfish" in a good way.
Resentment, that emotional burden we carry when we have been hurt and do not forget, manifesting itself as a sense of revenge, inferiority or revenge, represents a massive consumption of our vital energy.
We cannot afford to waste valuable internal resources on keeping alive past hurts that no longer have any practical meaning.
The power of forgiveness lies precisely in its ability to manage this energy, freeing us from unnecessary burdens.
The Energy Consumed by Resentment
Keeping alive a grudge or pain towards a person or a past event involves a continuous expenditure of mental and emotional energy.
Whether consciously or unconsciously, recurring thoughts about the offense, the person or the desire for revenge continue to consume us.
This negative energy, which could be used to build, create or move toward our goals, remains stagnant, feeding a cycle of discomfort.
Just as reconciling with our past allows energy to flow in a healthier way, holding on to pain acts as an energetic blockage.
Forgiveness as Energetic Transformation and Peace of Mind
Forgiveness, therefore, becomes a powerful tool for changing negative energy into positive energy.
By deciding to let go of the ballast of resentment, we not only rest emotionally, but we achieve greater peace of mind. It is a conscious management of our own energy.
This act often requires humility, the ability to stand in front of the painful person, action or memory and make the decision to release that burden.
This humility is precisely what facilitates the transformation of energy and helps us to master those recurring thoughts that consumed us. Forgiveness breaks the negative link with that past event.
Personal Growth and Emotional Channeling
Far from being a sign of weakness, the act of forgiveness enhances us as people.
It demonstrates an inner strength and a capacity to manage one's emotions that, unfortunately, is scarce.
Those who know how to forgive and reconcile with their past often project an image of greater maturity and balance.
In addition, forgiveness helps us to properly channel difficult emotions such as anger.
Negative energy needs a constructive outlet; if it accumulates unmanaged, it can lead to explosions that we later regret.
