Benefits of Forgiveness


FORGIVENESS is good for the body and the soul.   It can lower blood pressure, heart rate; reduce depression, anxiety, and anger.   People who forgive generally have more and better relationships, feel happier and more hopeful, and score higher on just about every measure of psychological well-being.   The trouble most of us have not been trained how to do it.   It is not always easy to do and can be a process but the one who benefits the most is the one who chooses to forgive.
