Healing Interpersonal Wounds A Radical Approach
- Presenter: Janis Abrahms Spring
For everyone, including mental and spiritual-health professionals.
We’re all struggling to forgive someone—an unfaithful partner, an addicted parent, a thankless child or sibling. Relationship wounds often leave us feeling emotionally raw. Using instruction and role-playing exercises, this program teaches you how to
- De-shame the injury
- Release bitter preoccupation with its injustice
- Forge an appropriate relationship with your offender (from cutting off to fully engaging with that person)
- Restore a sense of dignity—with or without forgiving
Those who have hurt others learn concrete acts of repair to earn forgiveness from those they’ve violated, and from themselves. This includes offering non-defensive apologies and taking a fair share of responsibility for what went wrong.
Come alone, with the person who hurt you, or with a friend. You’re invited to participate as much or as little as feels comfortable.
