Rev. Wendy continues her series on happiness today by sharing about forgiveness. Here are her main points:
1. “Acceptance: is not about defeat or resignation; it is about accepting what has happened.
2. Emotional regulation: helps you manage your emotions and avoid “hijacking” your amygdala – the part of the brain responsible for initiating your fight or flight reaction.
3. Shifting perspectives: can help you stand back and observe your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations. You cease to be a slave to your selfish narrative.
4. Empathy and compassion help you feel what another is experiencing and can be incredibly helpful on the path to forgiveness.
5. Radical responsibility requires being accountable for yourself, owning your actions, feelings, thoughts, and behavior."
