Forgive

We can all be hard on ourselves at times. Take a moment to forgive yourself. Whether it’s for a mistake you made or something you didn’t do, just let it go. You can even write down your mistake or regret and then tear up the piece of paper as you tell yourself that you forgive yourself for the grievance or grudge you held.

Why it Matters:



Harboring negative emotions leaves less room for joy, happiness, and compassion. By forgiving yourself and moving forward, you may experience benefits including reduced stress, less anxiety, and even lower blood pressure in some instances. Forgiving yourself also helps you form healthier, more positive relationships with others.

Fun Fact:



In Roman mythology, Clementia is the goddess of forgiveness and mercy.
