Practicing Self Forgiveness

[Licmycat]

That's very good! In fact; I started out with such a problem and know others who have and it was the forgiveness of GOD. When I went to Him and Jesus, and asked forgiveness of course he will when you really feel bad about it, but accepting that forgiveness into your heart is very hard. And as they once said; practice makes perfect. So you have to continue doing it and learning to let go when GOD throws those things in the sea. Have a great weekend!

thanks Sean!!!!

[allfitch84]

Forgiveness and consolation is something that can never be achieved from the external... you are the only one that knows if you're truly sorry and truly want to be feel better through forgiving yourself. You can lie to everyone around you, even try to lie to yourself, but you do know the truth deep down. Find consolation by facing yourself and letting go of the past the make room for the present.

[iworkforme]

true. thanks

[NightClubc]

its easy to say just forgive yourself though,what is the thought process behind forgving yourself ? how does one do this?

[Doika86]

@NightClubc well i guess there's no magic trick... its just a matter of taking a stand, making a choice, you just decide not to feel bad about something you've done or you are.. i.e: you're systematically rejecting any feeling of guilt, at least at a conscious level. After a long and painful process the unconscious level will follow and you'll have forgiven yourself. Well thats how the forces of willpower usually work.

[JohnnyX1239]

@Doika86 But what if you are unable to choose to choose it consciously. Perhaps we need God to forgive us first before we forgive ourselves, no matter what we think we have done wrong.

[licialicous]

lovee..... THIS GUY.

[Ui2019]

I might add that if you have trouble forgiving yourself try forgive some else in your past of something... This will give you a little 'energy' to forgive yourself a bit more...

[KristinaSalas]

Yes - Self Forgiveness is the Key to giving Life back to Ourselves.

[KellyPosey]

Cool! Self forgiveness is a tool to utilize to release self from patterns, so one can live here and be present and not controlled or limited by 'holding onto' the past.

[SpamAnn]

Self-forgiveness for me is to lay out a pattern within myself. Like when I am nervous to speak up to people. I lay the pattern out, to see why it exists within me (which thoughts, feelings, emotions, memories etc...) are connected to it so that I understand myself and who I have become. And then the true self forgiveness is to let that go, and direct myself and not hold on to the way I am programmed.

[MrSean7572]

Awesome Sean, Yes self forgiveness frees you from the past and things that you accept and allow currently.

Thanks for sharing

[cameronvcope]

This is so cool !!

Self-forgiveness is one of the tools I learned in the Desteni I Process

I have already stopped addictions to porn, smoking, drugs, and depression through Self-Forgiveness !!

Thanks for the video

[klausibaba6]

@cameronvcope

cool Cameron, I had simalar experience with self-forgiveness !

From my perspective is Self-Forgiveness the key for a better world !

Thanks Sean for sharing this video !

[MarlenLife]

Self Forgiveness has been the point that I've applied in my life wherein I've allowed myself to start from scratch from things that I was literally enslaving myself by, being completely addicted to in terms of being/becoming an idea of myself instead of realizing the simplicity as life that I am here as I breathe in the Physical. Thanks for sharing the simplicity of forgiving ourselves as the actual way to self-freedom in consideration of what Life must be for ALL as Equals. Thanks!

[annabrixthomsen]

When I forgive myself, I give myself back to myself and thus will myself to change and stand up in self-responsibility. It is exactly "lightening one's burdens" realizing that it was not necessary to burden oneself to begin with and that keeping the burden on our shoulders, will make us heavy-wait, instead of Living Here, unconditionally. Awesome video Sean. Thanks for Sharing.

[sheeeeshyall]

[unicornfilms]

I really needed to hear this today. Thanks for this. What are your different credentials as a therapist? I'd love to take up this profession and help others as well!

[Rusty0555]

How do you fit an enormously large and compassionate heart in such a tiny body?

[eritsa6]

Sean, just 10 minutes in looking at your videos and I have become a fan. Thanks for the advices.

[Katplesacica]

You are a great person and I thank you for oppening my eyes....... <3

[n3w2earth]

I want to sinerely thank you for inspiring me to move on. I've had some rough days but you made me feel better - And I will definately do your dance-video when I come home from school today. :) Have a really nice weekend, and know that you have one new fan, and this one is from Norway!

[1980cathi1980]

There is SO MUCH to this... Thanks for sharing, thanks for inspiring.. Why go through your whole life with black stones inside, when you can choose to remove them?

Have a beautiful day Sean! :)

[Zatsukai]

I wich i could just sit down and talk with that guy for a whole day... daaaamn. he's awesome..

[dfg297lpopdirk]

i Have just watched your dance party Sean then i watched this You are a very wise man Sean

[nickegbg]

I really agree with you in theory, but its kinda hard to forgive yourself and move on... yeah I can go through the ritual and pretend like it I guess, but its still there.. nagging in the back of my head. I envy those who can do it.

[Youmukrandax123]

I love you!

[johnyboyproduction]

Thank you  Sean your an awsome person! :)

[bl4life88]

Most days I live with an open mind and heart, but sometimes when I'm having an off day - I reflect on my past, and feel as though I haven't yet forgiven myself for all the wrongs I've done. it's been like this for years, but I continue to strive to be a better person.

Thanks Sean for a wonderful blog - i'll have to continue following your channel :)

[jupitergirl65]

I am so inspired by your spirit and the wisdom you share! Keep shining your light Sean the world is a better place because you are here!!!

[zchallenger]

The world is a better place because you are here.

Thanks for really making a difference Sean

[MarleyDawkins]

Thanks for sharing this Sean! This is a really cool explaination of how effective self forgiveness is.

[LarysKaziukonis]

Good one.

[childoJesus]

Thank you, Sean. I understand. I've needed this so badly. May it's what God has been trying to tell me all along. I was told so at least once. I am happy and secure with God Himeself...but not so much with me. Maybe it's just time to let go of the past... God bless you and everyone who posts here. Amen. :)

[meherune]

Thank-you for this Sean.

You just may save a life or two with this... :)

[jeremy9641]

What is your definition of forgiveness? Letting go of the feelings? Can you hold people accountable and still forgive?

[Skylinesandsunsets]

"Let go, or be dragged." - Zen Proverb

[MarlenVargasDelRazo]

cool point on Self Forgiveness, the only way to actually stop carrying our past which is a complete unnecessary load.

[deliciousonionsoup]

No I haven't watched all the videos or read all the text - only a fraction in fact. I just don't understand why there is a need to forgive being self-honest. Turning self-honesty into morality isn't self-honesty anyway, is it?

[Skylinesandsunsets]

Hey Sean, thanks for another great message. Your v-log is truly a diamond in the rough.

[deliciousonionsoup]

Why?

[deliciousonionsoup]

Thanks for making the video, Sean.

OK - yes the need for self-forgiveness...

BUT how do we know that we deserve what we desire though? What is the basis for us deserving anything?

Of course when one feels guilty then one feels undeserving. But ridding self of guilt by self-forgiving doesn't automatically make one feel deserving again.

[GabrielZamoraM]

Thanks Sean

for me self-forgiveness has assisted me with stopping my obsessions, angers and many fears - I would sit down and actually write self-forgiveness, because in doing that i could actually become honest with myself about what I was allowing inside me, to then no longer be a slave to these patterns - I found this very empowering

[MartijndeGraaf1001]

someone said: don't do what you'll regret later. I say, you cannot always know what you will regret later.

I say, promise yourself that when you'll regret something, that you'll forgive yourself.

[deliciousonionsoup]

But sometimes one knows rationally that one will regret doing / not doing something, but one acts against that rationality because one loses all sense of rationality / gives up thinking rationally. So there is stupidity in that action. So your words are wise, Martijn - but one has to act wisely therefore. Thank you.

So, to promise self that if one acts irrationally and create regret then one will forgive myself and try not to act the same way again.

[MartijndeGraaf1001]

cool. Self-forgiveness is not to be used as an excuse to do stuff you know you shouldn't, like to say: I can do this now, because I will forgive myself tomorrow.

[deliciousonionsoup]

No, and self-forgiveness doesn't work that way anyway. There are consequences.

[CatAlex720]

Thanks Sean.

[klausibaba6]

I forgive myself that I have accapeted & allowed myself for all what I have done what was not in self-honesty and for the benefit of all.

Thanks Sean for sharing :)

[BellaBargilly]

self-forgiveness is an act of taking self-responsibility and realizing i can correct myself so that i live in self-honesty

so it's a gift.

i would go as far and say there is no forgiveness, only self-forgiveness. because even if someone-else forgive you - if you haven't forgiven yourself, another's forgiveness does not set you free, another's forgiveness does not 'cerrect' you - one can only do it for oneself - and share oneself

thanx!

[ReginaldDiepenhorst]

Thank you. Self-Forgiveness and Self-Honesty.

[SpamAnn]

Self forgiveness is realising what you have been and what you have done and why, what the construct behind it is and how it is programmed within oneself. And with self forgiveness you make that clear to yourself as a statement to let it go and live the directive change of what you have just written/spoken as the self forgiveness. For example self forgiveness about fear holding you back. The correction is to walk through those fears not to let them stop you.

[roosvelt1984]

I forgive myself

[lifesblood]

I forgive myself.
