About the event
FORGIVENESS: ITS EFFECTS ON YOUR HEALTH
What happens to your body when you hold on to anger, resentment, and hurt and what happens when you finally let them go? In this talk, we will explore forgiveness from a holistic perspective, looking beyond the emotional act of forgiving to understand how it can influence the brain, stress response, immune system, heart, relationships, and overall wellbeing. Forgiveness is not about forgetting, excusing, or denying what happened; it is about understanding what we carry, how that burden affects us, and discovering whether letting go can become part of the healing process. Together, we will explore the science behind forgiveness, the biology of holding on, and the powerful connection between emotional freedom, physical health, and our capacity to live with greater peace, meaning, and wholeness.
