			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Please enjoy the following streaming audio of a <a href="http://www.counselingfortransformation.com/resources/podcasts-guided-excercises/">guided mindfulness and forgiveness exercise</a>. This is part 2 of <a href="http://whatismindfulness2.wordpress.com/2008/12/12/mindfulness-and-forgiveness-guided-meditation/">the practice</a> I introduced a  few days ago.</p>
<p> This practice will help you begin to unwind the chronic tension in the mind and body around unfinished business with a situation or memory in which you feel you have hurt someone else. </p>
<p>Please pick something of fairly low emotional intensity to work with at first (this is explained in more detail in the recording.) We want this to be a gentle compassionate process. This exercise has been a fruitful one for my clients and I hope it is helpful to you.</p>
<p>Please use your discretion when using any of the guided meditations/exercises I present here. If you ever feel overwhelmed or uncomfortable discontinue the exercise. The most effective way of working with this would be with the help or support of a qualified therapist. Keep in mind that forgiveness is a progressive process and you may not feel you can completely open to or arouse and kind of heartfelt quality of forgiveness during the exercise. Approach the person, situation, or memory with gentleness and take your time. Bit by bit, moment by moment, practice by practice we can learn to let go of our pain, resentment, rage, sadness, and other types of suffering. Regular practice is required to feel the full benefits of the exercise.</p>
<p>Therapists and healers please feel free to link this or distribute to your clients.</p>
<p>Find a quiet place where you will not be disturbed for the next 20 minutes or so and follow along with the audio.</p>
<p>This is also available streaming from my <a href="http://www.counselingfortransformation.com/resources/podcasts-guided-excercises/">website</a>, downloadable as an mp3, or you can subscribe to this as a podcast/feed from <a href="http://www.counselingfortransformation.com/resources/podcasts-guided-excercises/">this page</a>.</p>
