Moment 7 - Joe Wicks On How To Forgive & Set Yourself Free

00:04I think we've all had difficulties, but some people like really hold on to that and it affects them forever, where other people can just let it go and let it just move on like it's done like that' that's what it was just love the person they are today, that's more important. that's a really really I think important point that um. For me appears to be the answer to a lot of the energy, the negative energy I experience in like my direct messages from people is their like inability to like let go of someone that's wronged them, and the real shame is because that person's wrong them once upon a time, they're then dragging that negativity through their life and letting it destroy their future and their present yeah. And like.

00:40you know I've got a someone that's really close to me that um had a really bad experience with their dad when they were younger, um and they just won't let go and I see it damaging their adult. Life now even though they don't speak to their dad anymore, but because they just won't forgive that person, so how do you forgive someone more generally, not just your parents, but how do you forgive someone? That's a. You know harmed you or done you wrong in the past. What's the I totally. I can hear that message and I can see where that's coming from because you know my mum and dad have they've had their own trauma, such to such an this extent that they've been in you know therapy and all their lives and also you know with addiction it's manifested different ways, but it and it makes me sad all that you you.

01:26But for some sometimes I can see they've been struggling their whole life to let go of whatever it is that's hurting them and you know, holding them back and for me it's. A case of I just believe you have to live for the moment. You have to enjoy the day like what's going on today, like what can you do today to make you feel happy, and what is how is it going to serve you thinking about what you went through as a child, like you can have my mom and dad have had all kinds of therapy like you know regressive childhood hypnotherapy, you go back to the you know my dad's even started doing ayahuasca IMP plantt based medicine to go back and just to get it all out of him, but I just think you have to. Just take ownership and control of yourself on a daily basis and you know that's going to be done through like exercise, um, he eating healthy.

02:04Food being connected like some people are so disconnected from their family and friends and their community whatever that may be and that's the most important thing. They say that one of the key factors in success is are you connected? Are you helping other people? Are you giving? Are you giving or you just taking off people? So.

02:20you know don't focus on what you've been through and let that just be like the past and and what is happening today. You can't even deal with the future, like don't even get what some people are so that they suffer anxiety from what could might happen in the future but you have to just focus on today, you know what, what, what is the point of looking back? I just think it can, it can really consume you and you could like you go, you could go your whole life if I ever truly been happy because you're worried about the future or you're thinking about what happened in the past.
