Freedom From Guilt and Blame

"Freedom from Guilt and Blame" is designed to free you from guilt’s grip. It will help you sort out whether your guilt is healthy or unhealthy and to distinguish guilt from other emotions, such as shame and regret. The impact and connection between your values, perfectionism, and codependency and guilt are explained. Three methods for relieving guilt are set forth in detail: cognitive, self-compassion, and spiritual. Step-by-step processes and specific self-healing techniques and exercises are provided.

Guilt can be an unrelenting source of pain. It keeps us stuck in the past and prevents us from loving and being present to ourselves and those we love. We might condemn ourselves–not once, but over and over, or guilt may simmer in our unconscious. Either way, this kind of guilt is insidious and self-destructive and can sabotage our goals and relationships. It lowers our self-esteem and makes us easy targets for blame and manipulation. Unresolved guilt can cause anger and resentment, not only at ourselves, but also toward others. On the other hand, healthy guilt actually encourages us to get along with others, improve ourselves, and build self-esteem.

Self-forgiveness following guilt is self-essential to self-worth. Yet, for many of us, self-acceptance remains elusive because of unhealthy guilt – sometimes for decades or a lifetime. Even if what we did was wrong, we can still find self-forgiveness. "Freedom from Guilt and Blame" provides a step-by-step process to overcome guilt and find self-compassion.
