Forgiveness allows us to unstick unhealthy energy from within and release it. She also helps us realize that there is a difference between appropriate and inappropriate guilt and as parents of addicts, we tend to get caught up in feeling guilty for other people's behavior.
Feeling weighed down by guilt and regret? In this episode of 'Beyond Hope', Shar Jones sits down with Brenda Reiss, a self-forgiveness coach, author, and speaker, to discuss how self-forgiveness can open the door to healing and inner peace. Brenda explains that forgiveness isn't about the other person; it's about freeing yourself from unhealthy energy and finding joy.
She shares her personal journey with addiction and its impact on her family, highlighting the importance of setting boundaries and letting go of control. Brenda also tackles the tricky subject of guilt, especially for parents of addicts, and how it can erode self-love. By recognizing appropriate versus inappropriate guilt, you can start to heal from within. This episode offers practical tools for walking alongside loved ones in recovery while maintaining your own mental health.
Brenda emphasizes the ripple effect of personal healing and the power of community support. If you're seeking a path to greater peace and resilience, this conversation is a must-listen.
