By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Forgiving the past is the only way to create a more loving, productive, and fulfilling life. Everything we do and experience in life is born from the energy we carry. People and experiences show up in response to the conscious and unconscious energetic invitations we issue.

#2 We can’t clear our puppy mind thoughts until we learn how to meditate, and we can’t release the hidden feelings attached to those thoughts until we practice forgiveness. These two practices still the puppy mind so that the energy blocked in our bodies can bubble up to the surface and be released.

#3 Neck-down-dead people, who refuse to feel their true feelings, will do the opposite. They will refuse to become attached in the first place, and they will come across as cold and hard-hearted.

#4 Forgiveness is a process that stops the ride and eliminates the wounds of the past from the mind and heart. It supports our growth into a new way of thinking, being, and living.
