Hoʻoponopono is a Hawaiian healing mantra that consists of repeating the phrases: “I love you, I'm sorry, forgive me, thank you”. You can repeat these words aloud or in your head, say them to yourself or visualize someone else. It is a simple yet profound forgiveness and self-love practice and it is about giving yourself the comfort you desperately need. I discovered this practice during a time of despair and found immediate benefits in my personal life. I was so disconnected, impatient and frustrated with myself. The first time I listened to the video below, I burst into tears. I needed to hear those words but more importantly, I needed to say them to myself. I needed the comfort, the forgiveness, the love.
