100+ Forgiveness Affirmations For Freedom, Healing & Peace

“The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.”
― Marianne Williamson

Forgiveness is a part of all of our lives. We have all been the givers and receivers of forgiveness. Though it has seeped into our lives, there is discomfort associated with it.

And, it's not fair. Asking for forgiveness takes courage and the awareness that one needs to improve, that we weren't right.

And, giving forgiveness takes strength. In the situation that we are the ones whom we need to forgive, it gets more complicated. So, let's take the help of affirmations here.

Forgiveness is a gift that we give to ourselves and others. That even if it isn't easy, we are making a choice that will greatly help not only them but ourselves too.

Forgiveness brings peace and freedom.

Also, I want to make it clear that forgiveness is not a substitute for accountability. While advising forgiveness, I want you to maintain your self-respect.

Abusive people must be cut out from your life. And, even if you choose to forgive them so that you can be free, it doesn't translate to reconciling with them.

Same with you, if you have made a mistake, yes, forgive yourself in time, but don't take it as a license to not make amends, ask for forgiveness, improve yourself, and do your best to not repeat it.

I have a post talking about forgiving yourself in-depth if you're interested.

And, with that, let's dive into positive affirmations to help you form a freeing, forgiving mindset that leads to a more peaceful life:
