Affirmations for letting go and forgiveness
Forgiveness gets confused with approval. It is not agreeing that it was fine; it is deciding to stop paying rent on it.
Expect resistance from these lines — that is normal, and not a sign the practice is failing. Say the one you can mean today and leave the rest for later.
