Synopsis

Do the people who have wronged you deserve your forgiveness? What about you? Do you deserve the mercy that comes with forgiveness?Sixty-two percent of people say they need more forgiveness in their personal lives, but the majority of those same people say forgiving someone would first depend on the wrongdoer apologizing and making changes.Emily J. Hooks challenges us to take back control. In The Power of Forgiveness, she provides a comprehensive how-to guide to forgiveness as a healing practice. She makes the crucial point that, for us to be the most empowered versions of ourselves in the world, we must prioritize our healing.Forgiveness is the most important path toward healing that we can undertake.Inside the pages of The Power of Forgiveness, Hooks offers a sound and reliable roadmap to forgiveness. Through a mixture of inspiring firsthand accounts, parables, spiritual and philosophical wisdom, and practical exercises, a detailed case is made for the transformational power of forgiveness to open individuals to a more joyful and peaceful life. The book is made up of three distinct parts. Part I engages the reader in considering what forgiveness is, and what it isn't, and why it is so important to participate in this powerful and often misunderstood, process.Part II reveals the framework and process. The author offers readers a comprehensive roadmap, with a series of written exercises and guided meditations, toward forgiveness. The structure she provides helps to strengthen the competencies we need to forgive fully.The final section of the book discusses concepts related to forgiveness that deepen our understanding of the healing practice. In considering the impact of personal forgiveness on the world around us, Hooks shows us in great detail how people who practice forgiveness in their daily lives have the capacity to heal both themselves and the world.As readers, we learn that rather than perpetuating the suffering so widespread today, we can choose to create a world filled with people willing to be fully accountable for their lives and offer back something more. When we do our part in healing and releasing the wounds of the past, we can finally embrace our highest truth: love.
