Each time we are hurt and allow the hurt to pass through us without understanding and integration we accumulate an unwanted burden. This keeps us chained to the very thing we need to heal: the pain, the memories, the echoes of resentments, and the arguments that we rehearse over and over. Now is the time for mending rifts, healing wounds, and letting go of the old hurts in order to reclaim your power. Now is the time to forgive, to release, to make peace, and to make amends to others. Set yourself free.
