You will pick up the tools you can use to:

  • Understand why “sorry” certainly DOES seem to be the hardest word and why “sorry” often inflames rather than resolves the issue.
  • Understand some theoretical underpinnings and research from leaders in this field (eg. Gary Chapman and John Gottman’s work).
  • Utilise powerful healing exercises for yourself and the people you live/ work with, regarding soul wounds and emotional allergies.
  • Identify and utilise the 5 key Languages of Apology (Expressing Regret, Accepting Responsibility, Making Restitution, Genuine repentance and Requesting forgiveness).
  • Increase awareness and develop strategies for enabling people to be constructive with themselves and each other when their core attitudes collide.
  • Develop a plan and process of forgiveness that enables growth and healing within oneself and within close relationships.
