Today’s encore episode is with Diana Winston, the Director of UCLA Mindful, Keynote Speaker, Consultant and Author of The Little Book of Being: Practices and Guidance for Uncovering your Natural Awareness. In this interview, we talk about the importance of forgiveness in our lives and why carrying our anger or resentment around with us is like carrying hot coal. Dropping the hot coal gives us more freedom, openness, and joy. It doesn’t mean we have to condone or forget, but it is truly an act of self-compassion.
The practices she shares are both practical and powerful. The first step, she says, is to have the willingness to even start working on forgiveness — whether it’s forgiving another person, asking another person to forgive you OR forgiving yourself. None of this is easybut it can make a big difference in our own health and ease. Letting go of these difficult feelings is a great way to shift your mindset and build your capacity to focus on the things that really matter.
