We hear a lot about how crucial it is to forgive those who have harmed us, but what about forgiving ourselves?

Self-forgiveness is absolutely vital if we wish to have a healthier and peaceful relationship with ourselves.

It is not enough just to say you forgive yourself.

It takes a lot of self-compassion and kindness towards yourself in order to transcend your anger at yourself with love.

Moreover, viewing yourself with empathy helps you to forgive yourself easier.

You’re probably thinking.

This all sounds lovely and amazing in theory Ivan; however, in practice, it’s a totally different story.
