16: The Power of Achieving Personal Freedom Through Forgiveness
When Kelly took a trip down to the beach a few days ago, she found she wasn’t able to unplug and relax as easily as she’d been able to previously. This led to a bit of tension and frustration, namely toward herself for not making the most of a restorative opportunity. But Kelly also knows firsthand that resentment—be it toward yourself or other people—really only serves to build up negative energy until you either lash out or burn out. Forgiveness, as difficult as it might seem, is key to exorcizing these thoughts and moving on with your life. If you’re a high-functioning Type A and find yourself overanalyzing and unable to let go of past transgressions then this episode is for you.
In this episode, Kelly helps you understand how resentment—even of the most justified variety—really only serves to make you wallow in anger and toxicity. She lays out a variety of tools and strategies you can use to deal with these negative feelings in a healthier manner, and also describes some of her own experiences with resentment and how she was able to move on from them.
The Finer Details of This Episode:
- Learning to view regrets and resentment as the wastes of energy that they are and moving on from decisions you can’t unmake.
- Kelly’s video game analogy for understanding personal progress.
- How holding onto negative vibes out of a misplaced desire to seek justice can build up and act as “spiritual constipation.”
- Why resenting other people is effectively giving them power over you—and they aren’t even aware of it!
- Kelly relates her own struggle to forgive someone who had wronged her deeply.
- If you want to know what Kelly’s personal mantra is for grappling with intense feelings of resentment, send her a direct message at http://www.instagram.com/kellythealth

Quotes:
“There is so much freedom in forgiveness—and that freedom leads to greater success.”
“If you want to forgive others, you also have to forgive yourself.”
“The beauty in life is that we always have a choice.”
“Everyone is doing the best they can with what they have, and hurt people usually hurt people.”
“It takes more courage to forgive than to hold a grudge.”
