What does meditation have to do with dating or meeting the love of your life?? Well, everything, actually! If you are doing all of the external work to meet the love of your life and yet keep running into the same disappointing patterns, it is time to take a closer look at your internal state. In this episode, a coach and a hypnotherapist, Shonda Howard explains how meditation was and is the key for her and her clients to find the love of their life.

To move on in this life, you have to make a decision to forgive, as forgiving means that you are living in the present moment, as opposed to the past. 

It does not mean that you can forget everything; however it does mean that you can release and let go and learn to move on. 

When we decide to hold on to anger or irritation, we are weighed down with the stress of feeling hurt and victimised! Discovering forgiveness in life, helps you in lightening the load, and I like to think of it as a strong tonic for healing.
