      What I struggle with is the logical part of my brain that says, this may be true, but I would be in such a better situation if I'd known more and been more. It's a struggle with knowing that there was another way but I didn't take it... And suffered as a result. What do I do with those logical thoughts?

    I forgive myself for being so gulable. For being so trusting of other's. I forgive myself not valuing myself and my worth. For not loving myself enough and for looking outward instead of in for somone to complete me.
    I forgive him for hurting me and i forgive myself for giving him the opportunity to hurt me.

    I have a really difficult time loving & forgiving myself. I've convinced myself, over the last several years, that I'm not worthy of forgiveness because I've screwed up too many times & I'm too old to even move on with my dreams. I needed to hear this message today. I'm not dead yet & I may have a lot of years ahead of me. It's ok to love myself & forgive myself for all the things I've done or think I've done, for the wrong turns & bad choices. Today the gloves come off! Thank you!

    I forgive myself for projecting my fears and experiences on my daughter. I forgive myself for not wanting better for myself. I forgive myself for all the damage, pain and hurt I caused to my daughter. I also forgive myself for holding on to this guilt for so long. I forgive myself for placing my self worth and worth as a parent on the few mistakes I made and ignoring all the lovely moments we have together and all the good things I passed on to her. I forgive myself for not fully enjoying the good times. I am sorry my dear girl. And thank you for still accepting me and loving me wholeheartedly.
    But today, I am ready to make amends and release this guilt completely and permanently from my entire consciousness. I am grateful for your guidance universe and sending all wonderful teachers my way so I can move on and enjoy my own life and my beautiful relationship with my daughter to its fullest. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏🏽

    That was definitely one of the toughest lessons I had to learn. The same grace and forgiveness I gave to others, I had to learn to give to myself. I looked in the mirror and began to tell myself that I loved you and I forgive you, It has been so therapeutic and allowed me to stop being trapped in my past and create my own future. Now, I'm a vessel for others and I'm sooooo grateful. I love Lisa. Her words have definitely helped me to grow personally, spiritually, and mentally. Thank you and keep being God's vessel.

When the episode is over, I then go back and struggle with guilt, and I play the whole thing over and over in my mind, I imagine how the other person might have felt, and I feel even worse...and it goes on and on and on.....I needed to listen to this, to let it go and hope to do better tomorrow...thank you Lisa, I don't know if I will always remember this, but at least I know there's hope, and it's not just me, there others who have similar struggles, and hopefully, I will overcome!

    I just stumbled open this video. Searching "forgiving yourself" and wow. This video let me listen to everything I needed to hear. I'll probably rewatch until I truly feel like Ive forgiven myself from things I could've controlled, things I had no control over and simply harvesting pain, hurt and guilt where I should have love, compassion and grace. My aha moment was when you asked us to question ourselves if we are worthy of forgiveness. Truth is, I never have given myself the chance to forgive myself. My gloves have been glued on for so long that I get completely lost every time. I have a really difficult time believe I can be loved and I am worthy of it. It hurts because I ruin so many things with that mindset and I want to not do that anymore. Im tired of running and feeling like Im going to lose everyone. I want to make peace with my past and stop throwing myself a pity party. A sob story. I want to ascend to my highest vibration my energy can transition into!

      We are in the same boat.....but I'm glad we are at this stage of willing to forgive and realizing how important it is. We all make mistakes but sometimes we get so caught up in being perfect. I realized that with forgiving myself, I thereby accept that I am by no means perfect, and that I will allow myself to give room to make mistakes and learn from them. To keep my intentions pure and practice expressing gratitude and apologizing to God everyday. We all deserve to give ourselves chances as God is willing to give us chances.....if God is giving us chances, who are we to deny them and not show improvement to correct the mistakes❤🙏

    "You deserve joy. You deserve happiness." Those words hit home because I don't feel like I "deserve" happiness and joy because I've been holding myself hostage to the struggle.

    #BOL I finally realized that I had to forgive myself for even the seemingly unforgivable. I also had to start letting go of past behaviors and taking control of my life and learn to love myself in the process. By forgiving myself, I was able to forgive others honestly and completely and in the process, it allowed me to break ties with dream killers and toxic people. I had put myself in a box of doubt and despair for so long that there basically no oxygen in the box for me. By getting rid of the box and letting in new experiences it is allowing me to grow. Thank you so much Lisa!

    BOL! I had an ah ha about forgiveness. I heard a definition of forgiveness I’ve never heard or felt in that way before. Forgiveness=100% release of ALL guilt, 100% being reborn, wiping the slate clean, no longer holding onto that pain in your heart...THAT is why people say that forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. 🎁 I got that the moment you sighed. And I thought, “ Oh! That’s how true forgiveness feels. I got it!” I love the flavor you bring to every topic. You’re so nurturing and nourishing. :)

We got evicted and now I’m sitting here watching your video. Thank you Lisa for helping me realize that I need to forgive myself.

I will probably need to watch again and again, but I feel this could be the beginning of true self forgiveness. God Bless.

    As a teenage girl who has struggled with masterbation (sorry if it’s tmi) , I have held my guilt and shame , I beat myself up about it , I’m so sad that I took my innocence away from myself , but now I realize that I need to move on , I need to forgive myself , because at the end of the day the past is the past, not the present and not the future, YOUR past does NOT define you , YOU are a different person every single day , meaning you can change right now , you can become a new and improved person whenever you want , no matter what your dealing with , your feelings are valid no matter how big or small they are, forgive yourself and let yourself breath.

    The visual of taking the gloves off is something that I’m going to use. Time to “remove” the old guilt ridden me for the horrible things I’ve done with the realization that it does not help me or those around me now. It’s counter to what we’d think guilt should do but it serves no purpose in helping us or others that are NOW in our daily lives move toward. . Thank you!

    Your analogy about the boxing gloves is very much a description to how I have been punishing myself....... I have sentenced myself to a purgatory.....like a solitary confinement with very few extras beyond the basics we need to survive,.....food, housing,toiletries etc .....I cant seem to get to giving myself the things I used to know that I "deserve" or just value myself like one should.....like to go and get a new dress....or my nails done....a plant for my room....a day at the park......ya know what I mean? Just those somethings I always used to do when I was happy and the old Me......... my conscience/guilt/remorse resonates at a decibel of sound that is like a dog whistle .....and I have dog ears to it....... Its loud...... but silent.....it comes from a place I have just never ever known even existed........but it is so unrelenting....that is why Im convinced.....its mine and I 'own' it...and as I weigh the regrets and the things I did WRONG WRONG WRONG....my analysis is Im still mad as hell at Her=me............. I do try to get away from "the feeling" ........but omg..... then I literally feel guilty for not feeling guilty.....deep down I Know I have to find another way......a new way....because the old "real me" is no longer......... and Im looking forward to the relief I will finally have once again...... when that day comes.....so Im thanking you now for your talks.....your words are a gift.....and they really are able to guide a listener....you have on more than one occasion .....tapped into my painful thoughts and truths about something....and pulled ran my thinking up and over to a place of pondering all the maybes....your words had me WANTING to "get there" again....so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU in advance............

I was her caregiver as she fought colon cancer for a year. I didn't know what to do to ease her suffering or to make her live longer! I realize I did the best I could but I still feel stupid and inadequate. I also proved her wrong by continuously making dumb decisions since she left me. I have to find a way to forgive myself for her passing. Thank you! 5 years is long enough to carry this guilt!😭💪🏽🙏🏼

Thankfully, after suffering many years of depression and anxiety, a near death experience, and hardships, I realized that life is precious and every breath and moment I have is truly a gift to be cherished and appreciated, and I should not waste my mind and time thinking about things that I cannot change. I now know that I did my best with what I knew; when you know better you do better! Thanks a million Lisa!

    I just recently watched this video, & oh my wow. I NEEDED this. My BOL was when you said that when we don’t release our guilt from the past that we’re actually holding our future hostage. I got this mental image of 3 me’s & one me had a gun to the past me’s head, & future me was handcuffed to past me & couldn’t escape until I released them both. It just got me thinking how DEEPLY my life has been ingrained with guilt & how much FREEDOM is coming my way from that release.
    Thank you Lisa. You have been such a life-giving soul resuscitation this past year.

    I've done some horrible things to a friend who I loved with all of my heart and unfortunately I can't take those mistakes back. I've been hoping for forgiveness and I realized I probably will never receive from that person. I need to forgive myself. I've been stuck in guilt, shame, pain, hopeless waiting for them to come back for many, many years now . I need to somehow forgive myself. I know I wouldn't make same mistakes now because I've grown , I've don a tremendous amount of work on improving myself but I am having a very hard time to forgive myself, to let go, and move on without hoping and waiting that maybe one day that person will contact me again.

      Hi, I don’t know what you did but I have been in an abusive relationship before. I understand his threats, belittling, constant anger etc came from not knowing how to handle himself better. I have forgiven him for the most part. Also, I realize I am far from perfect myself. His behaviour was a true teaching and mirror for my own past negative behaviour in relations I had before him. Because of his horrible jealousy, I will never be that jealous person to anyone else. Because he showed me how terrible it is to actually be with someone like that. And believe me: before “meeting my match” in that regard, I really did not understand that like that.
      The best thing he could do for me is move on. Something he still has not really done after 20 years. And it’s not that easy since we have a (now adult) child together.
      Like I said I don’t know you or your situation. I can only talk from my perspective: if you love someone SET THEM FREE and by doing that SET YOURSELF FREE. ❤️🙏 We are all just here to live and learn. None of us are perfect. Be good, be free 🌞

It's so hard but I wish forgiveness in my heart to face a new year... But it's so hard when I will have to face them in court, I pray that I be ready for that day. But sitting here with you is like having a friend to talk to. Thank you Lisa, you had been always my go to when I need something like this.

I also discover that when I disappoint a male figure is because it takes me back to my childhood when my father was so strict and expected perfection from me. When I didnt do that the guilt was place on me and I believe that is why I feel so guilty. Thank you for your message. I will be forgiving with myself and I am aware where it comes from. love you ♡

    I love how personal and directly you talk to us as viewers, and really gives that permissionslip to forgive and let go of past hurt caused by you and others. I have a lot of things i hold om to that needs forgivness, and i hope that i can start doing this more deliberately now, and keep looking up this video and others that remind me how to!💕 I did something i am not proud of this Christmas, and i almost repeated a similar senario some days ago, and i have to radically forgive myself and let go of the guilt I feel for this. I read somewhere that guilt is in some ways addicitive, because it feeds into the story of who we are… «I am a person that make bad choices, and hurt others and my self.» We can end up thinking in a way that strengthen that belief, just because that’s what the ego knows and feels safe with! The feelings of guilt can also be addictive, as we do get addicted for the chemicals that certain emotions release. And if it is in fact an addiction, than… all the more reason to practise forgiveness, because that is building a habit that activates other parts of the brain and nervoussystem, and allows the body/mind/spirit to align with new feelings new chemicals, those who evoke feelings of connectedness, love, peace, acceptance, fluidity. I am just realising this, that our beliefs really are addictions, and we can sober up from them if we know there is a remedy. Its work to go in and apply forgiveness, But it is better that hitting that old bottle of guilt and shame. And maybe I can finally start to view myself as a caring, loving, pleasant, supporting person, as many already say they view me as! Others offer me a lot of love and acceptance, but I really struggle to let that in, and view me as they view me, because I am holding on to grudges and guilt and feel like I don’t deserve this love. But oh! Maybe this is one major key to my self healing❤️ I really hope inremember and practice this! Thansk so much for this video. I forgive myself. I hold forgiveness as a teacher, and hold her as a guiding force in my life. I want her to teach me how to be free.

    2)I forgive Me for not Self caring, not standing up for myself, not being compassionate with myself and not honouring myself at many moments in life.
    3)I forgive Me for Judging, condeming, controlling and not trusting myself all the time.

    I love that word RELEASE! When you are released from something or someone you transition into a place of FREEDOM. Unforgiveness is a negative spiritual force that restricts (controls, binds and limits) a person from experiencing God’s best. CHOOSING to forgive yourself and others releases the forgiving person from the controlling, binding and limiting force and transitions them into a place of Freedom. #BOL Lisa, quote “BLESSINGS LIVE INSIDE FORGIVENESS.” This is the place where you experience beautiful and powerful things. I was thinking that this is a beautiful picture and explanation of what our Lord’s forgiveness looks like towards us. Wow!

    #BOL The reason why I feel like I cant move forward is because i feel like my previous experiences and the people that I chose to surround myself with defined me. Everytime I tried to change for the better, I fell back into old habits surrounded myself with old people because that is what I was comfortable with. Knowing that was wrong, I beat myself up over it for a long time. But recently, I cut alot of people out of my life. I'm more aware of toxic people as well as toxic habits and I am changing for the better.I am read for new POSITIVE people to enter my life and more fulfilling experiences to come my way. Finding Lisa Nichols is one of the best things I could ever to for myself , love her. I'm going to save up to go to one of her seminars and I cant wait.

I am working on not being so judgmental with myself or with others. I am learning that my high expectations are only intimidating to those who don’t expect from themselves. I am only demanding to those who don’t demand anything from themselves. I am allowed to learn from my mistakes. I am allowed to embrace my mistakes. I am a caterpillar in a cocoon. I may not fly today, I may not fly tomorrow. But trust and believe- I WILL fly. That’s my Break through
