What Is Forgiveness? A Guided Meditation

Hey Friends, I recently shared a video about forgiveness—not as something we offer others, but as something we give ourselves. In this guided meditation you will see that forgiveness isn’t what we previously thought and not something you do for another. Let’s explore the deeper layers of what it really means to forgive.

What will you learn about forgiveness in this guided meditation?

A New Understanding of Forgiveness Meditation

As you watch, you are gently guided into a deeper understanding that forgiveness is not a duty or a platitude. It is not about excusing the behavior of others or forcing yourself to let go before you are ready. Instead, forgiveness is an inner journey—one that begins with acknowledging your own presence.

Returning to Yourself Through Breath, Stillness & Emotional Healing

Through the rhythm of breath and stillness, you are invited to return to yourself. We ground first in love for ourselves and the experience.  This grounding becomes the foundation for forgiveness.

Meeting Yourself with Love in Releasing from Others or Self-Forgiveness Meditation

You learn that whether you have been hurt or have caused harm, healing begins when you meet yourself with love. Forgiveness unfolds as the act of holding space for the emotions within you—grief, guilt, regret, or anger—and gently letting them rise and soften. It is about choosing to stay with yourself even in the hardest moments.

Forgiveness Meditation That Does Not Rely on Others

The video helps you see that real forgiveness is not dependent on others. No apology or acceptance from someone else can replace the healing that comes when you choose to love you. When you’ve acknowledged your feelings and offered love to the parts of you that suffered or caused suffering, you naturally release the hold the past has on you.

Forgiveness: The Loving Return to Self Through Meditation

Forgiveness is the loving return to yourself. It is the courage to say, “I love me,” even when you have faltered or been hurt.  It is the deep trust that you are worthy of love in all your forms, and from that love, true healing begins.
