How do you define forgiveness? According to Nella Coiro, “forgiveness is the highest form of self-love.”

The idea for The Forgiveness Journey was born when the author began to explore resentments that she had been struggling with for decades, and realized the degree of negative impact they still had on her life. She asserts that the topic of forgiveness is something many people struggle with, and misconceptions can add to this struggle. “We seem to think that if we forgive, then the offender has won. In reality, resentments allow others to control us or ‘own us.’ Therefore, we need to expand our perceptions of forgiving.”

Using a combination of research, interviews, therapeutic models, and her own personal experience, Nella will take you through the steps needed to forgive those who have offended you, move past your victim stories, forgive those who have not apologized, and move on with your life.

This important book gives you the tools you need to achieve self-empowerment and transformation, including mindfulness exercises, action plans, checklists, and the good old-fashioned wisdom of someone who has been in your position before. The Forgiveness Journey shows that finding forgiveness is about releasing yourself from the shackles tying you to the past.

The Forgiveness Journey is for anyone who is sick and tired of embracing the pain of chronic resentments. “They need to be ready, and understand that forgiveness is a choice for self-healing and personal growth. Forgiveness is for the forgiver, not for the person they are forgiving.” Remember: the road to forgiveness is a journey, and Nella Coiro is here to be your guide.
