Have you ever had a resentment toward someone or yourself that just won’t go away? Does it keep you up at night as you toss and turn in anger? If you answered yes to either of these questions, The Art of Forgiveness is a valuable book for you to read. It guides you on a journey that resolves your feelings of resentment. It brings you peace and freedom from resentment, such that you gain a calm and serene attitude. It helps you heal from old wounds you’ve struggled with for years. Using her life as an example, Carolyn CJ Jones shares a little bit about her upbringing and the trauma and abuse she suffers as a child. While at home, she learns to keep a smile on her face and her mouth shut. As an adult, CJ becomes an angry, bitter, blaming victim, and finds fault with everything and everyone. She lets you see how she manages her feelings by drinking and drugging as they deaden the pain she feels. CJ relays the journey that led her to her bottom with her 30-year drinking habit. It was an unrequited love that takes her out. CJ grieved what never was to be for seven years until she discovered five things about the rejection for which she could be grateful. That was a major turning point for her. Throughout The Art of Forgiveness are tidbits of wisdom that CJ learned the hard way throughout her life. Those bits of wisdom are life savers for you to use in your own journey to wholeness. Gratitude plays an important role in the process, as does positivity. CJ shares the YIPPEE Method of Healing that she created to guide you through your difficult feelings to resolve resentment so you can heal. YIPPEE is an acronym that stands for Yearn, Investigate, Process, Practice, Evolve, and Empower. At the end of the Empower stage, you discover you have forgiven the offense, or you are on the verge of forgiveness, and you begin to gain peace. Each section of YIPPEE is powerful as you examine your feelings, your resentment. If you are searching for words, ideas, or wisdom to feel better. -
