This month’s blog is on a topic that will resonate with lots of us. Part of being human is to experience a kaleidoscope of relationships! Over the course of our lives we will interact with thousands of people. Each and every one of them will be at a different stage in their spiritual journey here on Earth. When we add to this our varying backgrounds and upbringings, values, opinions and states of mental health, it’s impossible to constantly ‘be on the same page’ with partners, family, friends, acquaintances, colleagues, and – unsurprisingly – complete strangers. We are each as unique as our DNA in any given moment or situation. Clashes and confrontation will always happen.
Unfortunately, many relationships are badly affected and sometimes estranged because of ill feelings of wrongdoings towards each other. Though in some cases this is inevitable, in many cases one could actually harmonise these relationships again with simple energetic techniques.
Master Choa Kok Sui, the modern founder of Pranic Healing, is known for emphasising the importance of forgiveness as a key to inner healing and spiritual growth:
“Inner forgiveness is for all, outer forgiveness for some.”
This powerful quote reminds us that forgiveness is essential for our own peace. Because there is only one person who truly gets hurt when we refuse to show mercy on others for their mistakes… and that is us as individuals. Meanwhile, the one who has betrayed or wronged us, is continuing to live their life, blissfully unaware that we are still stewing. We must release the hurt and anger, even if the relationship is beyond repair.
“Inner forgiveness is therapeutic. If you do not forgive you cannot be internally healed. Forgiving heals the soul.”
This is another important quote from Master Choa Kok Sui. None of us are perfect. We have all made mistakes, and, until we are fully enlightened beings, we will continue to do so! How can we expect to be forgiven by others if we are unwilling to do so ourselves?
The words may sound simple but many of our burdens and pains are stored up over years – sometimes a lifetime – so that they grow and grow as negative thought forms. When we haven’t released ourselves from this internal prison, we approach life full of anger and resentment. Both of these emotions hold us back like a rubber band.
Returning to the subject of outer forgiveness, we don’t have to openly forgive a person. Because, of course, there are always cases where it is important that others learn from the consequences of their actions and we wouldn’t be helping them to evolve if we outwardly accepted the way they had treated us. Sometimes, sadly, this means the end of a chapter. We may need to protect ourselves from toxic behaviour.
The bottom line is… forgiveness is difficult to do consciously when we are in these moments of anger. Often they sneak up on us when we least expect it and we find ourselves reacting off the cuff. But when we understand that anger is energy, created by us, everything changes. We gain more clarity so that we are able to reframe and step back in unsettling situations. We don’t want anger or resentment to accumulate in our energy system, creating patterns which could affect our physical and mental health over time.
By applying simple energetic techniques which one can learn in Pranic Healing courses, this energetic pattern can slowly be transformed. What we think we radiate. What we radiate we attract. When anger and resentment is removed from our systems, we radiate a softer energy, and this is essential for harmonious relationships moving forward.
Pranic Psychotherapy is a class dedicated to understanding the nature of psychological ailments and how to systematically remove these negative emotions which impact our overall wellbeing, and relationships.
There is still time to sign up for the next Pranic Psychotherapy course, which will take place in Dublin on the 13-14 Sept 2025. Just click on the highlighted words in the paragraph above for all of the details. We look forward to seeing you there!
