Why should I forgive them? - a podcast by Sala Sihombing

As children we are often told to forgive others who hurt us.  When separating, people are often deeply hurt by the actions of the other person. Holding onto that pain and sense of powerlessness can have a significant negative health impact. Dr Fred Luskin suggests a different way, he argues we need to take back control and assert our own power to forgive for our own good. 

Forgiveness is not about accepting what's happened, minimising our pain or forgetting.  Instead it is about freeing ourselves from the grievance and finding a way to heal and move forward.

Next week more from Dr Luskin on "how" to forgive.
