1. POWERFUL QUOTE

“Forgiveness doesn’t excuse the past, it frees the future.”

2. REFLECTION ON THE YEAR

Think back to a moment this year when holding onto something,  a mistake, a memory, a comment, a disappointment — made you feel heavy.

Now ask yourself: Did holding on, help me? Or did it keep me stuck?

Forgiveness is a reflection of loving yourself enough to move on, to loosen the grip of what hurt, and to make space for something new.

3. EASY STEP FOR TODAY & BEYOND

Sit or stand comfortably.

Take one slow breath in… and one slow breath out. Now, say this quietly to yourself in three steps:

1. Acknowledge 

“Something / someone hurt me, and it’s okay that it did.”

2. Release

If forgiving yourself: “I release the version of me who didn’t know then what I know now.”

If forgiving someone else: “I free myself from this hurt. I am choosing my future, not my past. 

3. Choose

“I choose to move forward lighter.”

As you exhale, let your shoulders drop. Imagine one small weight — even the smallest one — leaving your body.

That’s it. A moment of honesty, a moment of release, and a moment of choice. A tiny doorway into a softer, clearer 2026.
