How
is
your
practice?
Practicing
forgiveness,
as
you
will
see
in
this
month’s
newsletter,
is a
powerful
instrument
of
healing.
If
you've
been
hurt
by
another
person—or
by
your
own
inner
judge
and
jury—you've
probably
realised
that
it's
impossible
to
forgive
through
sheer
will
or
intention.
True
healing,
teaches
Jack
Kornfield,
comes
naturally
with
the
opening
of
insight,
understanding,
and
release.
Check
out
our
thought
provoking
articles
below
on
forgiving:
Forgiveness
can
improve
immune
function;
What's
in a
name;
How
to
Forgive
anyone
(and
why
your
health
depends
on
it);
and
8
ways
to
forgive
and
forget.
In
our
guided
session,
you'll
be
encouraged
to
germinate
forgiveness
and
move
out
of
pain,
fear,
and
confusion,
even
if
you've
been
struggling
with
your
situation
for
years.
The
3
forgiveness’s:
• Forgiveness
of
self
for
hurting
others
•
Forgiveness
for
hurting
or
harming
self
•
Forgiveness
to
those
who
have
hurt
or
harmed
me

What's in a
name?
An article on
naming thoughts
and naming
feelings by
Heather Mason.
"By naming one’s
feelings the
mind returns
from its
internal journey
and the thoughts
will cease of
their own
accord. Naming
thoughts renders
the mind clear
whilst breaking
up painful and
confusing
feelings."
