World's foremost expert on forgiveness, Fred Luskin, Ph.D talks about that it takes a willingness to practice forgiveness day after day to see its profound benefits to physical and emotional well-being and to our relationships. He discusses why forgiveness can be so hard to practice and explains: 

• The connection between grief and forgiveness. That before you can forgive, you have to grieve.
• Gratitude and forgiveness. 
• Forgiveness takes practice, is a skill that almost anyone can learn. 

While pain and disappointment are inevitable, they need not control us. It is vital to our health and well-being that we handle what comes our way without getting stuck in blame and suffering.
