Holding a grudge against someone or even yourself can have a profoundly negative impact on your mental health and even cause you to feel out of alignment spiritually. To forgive is to cancel the debit you’ve held on to within. It may not be easy, but it can have a positive impact on all aspects of your life.

Move from wartime to peacetime: When there is an unresolved issue within you or between you and another, you’re in a perpetual mindset of war. You may find yourself being less trusting and more impatient. Forgiveness allows you to once again experience the world from a peaceful point of view. Your perceptions of all areas of life can improve with forgiveness..
