Module 5: Letting go
- Examine Forgiveness – What It Is, and What It Is Not
- Even if they never ask for your forgiveness, you must do it. It’s for you, so you’re able to move on.
- Practicing Release – Letting Yourself Cry, Giving Yourself Permission to be Angry for a Moment, Not Beating Yourself Up
- Give yourself permission to express your anger for a moment, but don’t stay there.
