With Sally Oddy
Forgiveness is one of the hardest human experiences - not because we can’t let go, but because we were taught forgiveness in a way that never truly liberated us. We were told forgiveness means: ▴ absolving someone of blame, ▴ pretending it didn’t hurt, ▴ excusing harm, ▴ reconciling or reconnecting, ▴ seeking closure from the person who hurt us. And that is why most people never actually forgive. Because that isn’t forgiveness. It’s emotional pressure. True forgiveness has nothing to do with them. True forgiveness happens inside you. In this 7-day reset, you will experience forgiveness in a way that is: ▴ psychologically freeing, ▴ emotionally sovereign, ▴ nervous-system safe, ▴ spiritually grounded, ▴ deeply humane, ▴ and permanently transformative. True forgiveness is not: ▴ a performance, ▴ a conversation, ▴ a spiritual bypass, ▴ or a forced “I forgive you.” True forgiveness is a perspective shift that releases emotional attachment, frees the nervous system from pain, and restores you to inner peace. You don’t have to reconcile. You don’t have to speak to them. You don’t even need them in your life. Forgiveness has nothing to do with them and everything to do with you. You release not because they “deserve” it, but because you deserve the freedom that comes after. Over these 7 days, you will learn: ▴ why forgiveness has felt impossible, ▴ how attachment creates emotional suffering, ▴ how to release the pain without suppressing it, ▴ how to see others through a lens of humane truth: they were doing (not necessarily trying) the best they could with the awareness they had ▴ how to let go without losing your power, ▴ how to stop carrying emotional weight from someone else’s choices, ▴ how to reclaim inner sovereignty. You will not forget what happened. You will not minimise your pain. You will not deny your truth. You will simply stop carrying pain that no longer belongs to you. Forgiveness is not weakness. Forgiveness is freedom. Forgiveness is completion. Forgiveness is release. Forgiveness is personal liberation. And yes - lasting forgiveness can happen in one single moment when you understand it deeply. Let these 7 days guide you to that understanding. Your heart, nervous system, and identity are ready for peace.
