Forgiveness

Healing after trauma includes many steps and stages. One of the most important is the need to forgive when the time comes that such an act is not only feasible but necessary. Towards that end, we are adding a new section to DrT’s Blog: The Forgiveness Prescription.

This work is based on three major assumptions:

* Not forgiving impedes healing and contributes to the suffering of chronic disease and pain.
* Forgiveness is always possible but seldom happens overnight.
* Forgiveness is a trainable skill.

DrT stresses these seven keys to forgiveness:

1. Become Awake and Aware
2. Learn to Reframe
3. Practice Gratitude
4. Harness Your Anger
5. Live the Golden Rule
6. Engage in Lovingkindness
7. Live in the Here and Now
