Set Yourself Free with Forgiveness with Dr. Elizabeth Cohen, “The Divorce Doctor” on Divorce & Beyond #261 The Divorce and Beyond® Podcast with Susan Guthrie, Esq.
-
- Self-Improvement
The Divorce Doctor, Dr. Elizabeth Cohen, returns to the Divorce & Beyond podcast! Join Dr. Elizabeth and Susan Guthrie, Esq., for a conversation about the greatest gift that you can give to yourself – forgiveness.
Forgiveness is a topic that everyone, divorce or not, needs to know more about because it is so powerful, yet so misunderstood. When the topic comes up, it can often sound like nails on a chalkboard. But, did you know that there are demonstrable mental health benefits to forgiveness? It has been shown to elevate mood, and guard against anger, stress, or even depression. Also, when you seek to forgive, it can have positive effects on all facets of your life.
Dr. Elizabeth joins Susan for an impactful conversation about how to forgive yourself (and others), let go of resentment, embrace compassion, and create a new beginning. Forgiveness helps you let go of a past that no longer serves you, and helps you move toward a more joyful future.
Dr. Elizabeth Cohen is the CEO and founder of the online divorce course and membership Afterglow: The Light at the Other Side of Divorce.
Golden Nuggets from Dr. Elizabeth Cohen include:
Dr. Elizabeth shares the amazing story about forgiveness that inspired this episode
Forgiving is a process - it’s not linear, it’s not fast; it is work
Stay away from JADE: Justify, Argue, Defend, and Explaining
Forgiveness and resentment are not about the OTHER person, they are about YOU. You have the power to shift how you feel about the other person
We acknowledge there are some things that are not forgivable - such as criminal acts or sexual assault
You don’t have to forgive a perpetrator - but you may be able to release the power of resentment in your life
Forgiveness is about your future
This episode is an invitation to give yourself a chance to live anger or resentment free. Listen to give the gift of forgiveness to yourself today!
