Color your own Forgiveness Heart
Color your own Forgiveness Heart
The recent events in the world might have troubled you, like they did me. Anger, anxiety, sorrow and fear have risen to higher levels … How can we come back to the calm, happy state that is the only place we can actually take positive action to change our life and our world ?
One solution might be Hoʻoponopono.
Hoʻoponopono (ho-o-pono-pono) is an ancient Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. It includes 4 sentences : I love you, Please forgive me, I'm sorry, Thank you. The idea is to reconnect with the persons/events that have triggered the negative emotions, and then to slowly and consciously repeat the sentences a few times.
I created a slightly different way of doing this forgiveness meditation. I create some hearts filled with the words and meditate while I color them. Here is one that I designed for you. I suggest you sit comfortably in a chair or the floor, light a small candle maybe, and consider coloring this heart as a meditation. Really try to feel the words, applying them to your own personal issues or directing them at the planet and the whole of humanity. Whichever you choose will be beneficial. You can color with crayons, pencils, markers or even paint … whichever is you tool of choice … or whichever is lying around in your house … Don't let yourself be stopped by tools! I hope you enjoy it!
