This half-day, small group workshop covers forgiveness — when to forgive (and when not to), forgiving others, and forgiving ourselves.

A range of religious traditions have long advocated for the spiritual practice of forgiveness. And recent research has shown that forgiveness — the letting go of anger and blame — has an array of positive benefits for individuals (and communities); we are able to connect better, suffer fewer health problems, and become happier people.

In this workshop we will utilize guided mediation, tools drawn from 12-step practices (you don't have to be in recovery to do this), and discussion to become free from the weight of our resentments and to move towards a happier and more connected life. Participants will develop tools and practices that can be used in daily life and have access to an ongoing online support group.
