If you talk to almost anyone in my life who has known me for any length of time and you ask them if they consider me to be a little “out there,” probably all of them would say, “yes.”

I’m pretty “out there.” Like, I can embrace a lot of things. A LOT of things. Come take a look at my bookshelves and you’ll see titles on Gnostic Christianity, Shamanism, the Saints, Jewish Mysticism, the Angelic Realm, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc, etc.

When I saw this book, RADICAL FORGIVENESS, I thought to myself: “I need this.” I’m having an issue with someone very dear to me, and I was praying that this book would be a solid answer for me.

It’s not only NOT a solid answer for me, I actually think the ideas in this book are irresponsible and potentially dangerous.

When I arrived at about page 40, I flipped over the book, wondering who in the hell the author is. His bio simply states that he “was born in England and taught at London University before immigrating to the U.S.” Studied what? Taught what? I see no references to studies in theology or psychology. I’m assuming: Economics? Apparently he now has a whole series of these books and also provides audios and online programs.

If any of his work has truly helped someone, God bless every one of them. And, forgive me, please, for not doing any of the “helpful” worksheets at the back of the book, but I actually felt sick to my stomach, by page 96.

It’s funny; the author writes that he wants WOMEN to forgive men for sexual abuse, neglect, physical abuse and rape, by teaching them that these men should be “judgment and blame free” and to tell themselves that the “problem is with me (my error).” Only by “freeing” themselves as victims and assuming all responsibility for assault, abuse and neglect can they truly forgive whatever Dipshit they’re with at the moment and head back on down the Yellow Brick Road with him.

Apparently if a man jumps out of a bush and rapes someone, the rapist is there, per a soul contract that you know nothing about, and is actually a “healing angel” in disguise. According to him, it may take the “victim” months or years to be able to see “the perfection in their situation.” He refers to the rapist as a “healing angel.” No, for real. For realsies.

Make.it.stop. Make.it.stop. Make.it.stop.

Oh! Wait, before I stop. . .

From page 76: Another situation I am often asked to address is what to do when one becomes aware of a child being abused. The question raised is: if we assume that the child’s spiritual growth is being supported by this experience, should we take action or not, since to interfere would be to deny the child’s soul its growth experience?

Whimper, wither, wonder how it could have ever been published?

Now I know how cults get started. (Careful for those worksheets at the end; I’m pretty sure they’re applications! Ack!).

This book was terrible! I want my money back from Amazon. It's the worst book I've ever picked up! It basically postulates that there isn't a right or wrong, therefore if someone apologizes you just say "You did nothing wrong." It's a bunch of new age bullshit. It's not really about "forgiveness" at all. I'm not sure what the book is about, it was just a bunch of words on pages. Unfortunately, the author didn't say anything that made sense. At one point in the book, he goes onto talking about how people create their own cancer. One of his friends had an actual case of cancer and meditated it away at a cabin in the woods. He talks about how we give ourselves cancer (er, what about genetics? The environment? You think the kids of Chernobyl gave themselves cancer?) Yeah, kind of uncompassionate to blame potentially mortal illnesses on the people who get them. I forgive Colin Tipping for writing this terrible book.

If you want a real book on forgiveness written by someone who is competent and compassionate, read 'Forgiveness: How to Make Peace with your Past and Get on with Your Life." That was a very helpful book.

Some acts are inexcusable. All are forgivable. Forgiveness is for your benefit, not the perpetrators.

If this is where you are in your spiritual journey, it can be quite transformational. If not, then just let it go. Certainly not the book or concept for everyone, but for some, this book can be the beginning of an opened life.

What the fuck habe ich da gerade gelesen?
Der Autor ist tatsächlich davon überzeugt, dass jegliche Form von Fehlverhalten genau das wäre was ein Mensch benötige. Würde sogar dann für Kinder in gewaltvollen Situationen betreffen.Hilfe?
Man solle Hitler vergeben? Wie bitte?
Babies würden im Mutterleib Sprache verstehen! Es wäre egal wer die Eltern seien weil man immer der gleiche Mensch sein würde.

Ich weiß nicht, was dieser Mann geraucht hat aber dieses Victim-blaming Buch gehört hinter Gittern!

Mit Abstand eines der toxischsten Bücher, die ich je gelesen habe.

I believe that forgiveness is really important. Understanding what forgiveness is -- it is not making excuses - and how to forgive are quests for many people. However, the way that this book approaches the nature of forgiveness does not seem effective. The book states that we made agreements before we were born to have certain things happen to us (abused children asked for it) - but we forgot the agreements. Okay, so how would the author remember anything about this and be able to write about it? My guess, he is just guessing. There's no proof offered.

The book further states that everything is working out perfectly according to those secret, pre-birth plans - including child abuse, rape, murder, racism, etc. These are all just events for us to use to work out forgiveness. What fun. How about we make pre-birth agreements not to have child abuse, rape, murder or racism in the first place? Why wouldn't we make secret pre-birth agreements for peace and harmony?

The problem I have with the people who espouse pre-birth experiences like this author or where we choose our own parents, etc. is that if we have a choice of living in the bliss of pre-birth nirvana, why would we want to incarnate at all? Why choose to enter into life with all its difficulties?

This is one of those book I always have a copy of. I listed it as read in 2008, but really I read it back in 2003. Howeve, I like to think its current because I mention it or refer it to people constantly. I can't tell you how many times I have given this book as a gift to people!!! Probably just as many times as I have run into strangers who suddenly spilled their lives to me out of nowhere at the airport, grocery store, post office, etc. and have consequently told them to buy it. At the root of many people's suffering is a lack of forgiveness. This book gives you an empowering perspective on those very things that we feel wronged about. Its a must read for anyone feeling stuck. I dare you to read it!!!

Яка ахінея😬🫣🫠
Давно вже не читала такі книги. «Наші фільтри мають бути чисті, але коли вони брудні - це наш вибір», «негативна і позитивна вібрація головне» та інший космос. Але то все ще можна терпіти, а от:
«Діти, які народились у неблагополучних родинах, самі це обрали. На вищому рівні, до народження. Це те, що мають пройти їхні душі. Це їхній шлях». Еееееем.
«Війна потрібна, щоб очиститись, вони самі її просили і чекали»
«Він зробив радикальне пробачення і хвороба відступила сама, без ліків».
«Вона обрала альтернативний метод лікування від раку. Поїхала і тиждень помолилась і все вилікувалась».
«Деякі люди зволікають з лікуванням, щоб спробувати спочатку метод радикального проабчнння». Еееем.

Ох.

Були і хороші речі. Заклик скинути з себе роль жертви, користь медитацій, не зациклення на дрібницях. За це накинула книзі два бали) але оті всі дикі поради радикального пробачення замість лікування та роботи - справжня небезпечна річ. Яку варто заборонити.

This book has helped me tremendously. It offers amazing tools to release pent up anger and regret in the best of us. The work just needs to be done. I know this has helped me release tons of anger that was building since birth, probably before birth. It is like a kick in the pants, a light bulb going off, it will work for you when the time is right. love, peace and forgiveness.

Radical Forgiveness was recommended to me by a friend of mine. The basic premise behind the book is to look beyond the victim mentality in your life. To radically forgive someone is to no longer blame them for any wrong doing and to take responsibility for your own life and how you feel about externalizations governing your circumstances.

Some people may have a hard time believing parts of the book, as it gets into the spiritual metaphysical nature of the world and presumes you have a belief in a higher power. I really loved the book though, and I recommend it for anyone who wants to get over any negative experience that happened in their life.

This book definitely lives up to its title! I experienced a transformational miracle. I was completely transformed from a victim mentality to a woman with a strong self-esteem. The truth in this book freed me to pursue my divine purpose in life and I've used its lessons to coach others into freedom. I wish everyone I know could read this book.

Genialna!!! Zaraz po Wędrówce dusz (Journey of Souls). A tak właściwie, to one się obie uzupełniają.
Czy zdarzyło Wam się być przez kogoś skrzywdzonym? Jak długo nosiliście urazę? Miesiące, lata, całe życie. A może wybaczyliście swojemu oprawcy? Ile czasu Wam to zajęło?
A co powiedzielibyście na metodę natychmiastowego, czyli radykalnego wybaczania? Nie da się? Da się, ale trzeba przewrócić swój dotychczasowy ��wiatopogląd do góry nogami.
Powszechnie panuje przekonanie, że jesteśmy istotami fizycznymi, które mają też życie duchowe. Radykalne wybaczanie zakłada, że jest akurat odwrotnie. Jesteśmy istotami duchowymi, doznającymi fizyczności. A to całkowicie zmienia pogląd na wszystko, czego doświadczamy. Przyjmujemy, że przychodzimy tu, żeby się czegoś nauczyć. O tym, co to ma być decydujemy przed przyjściem na świat. Wybieramy sobie rodzinę, w której się urodzimy i wydarzenia, które mają nas spotkać. I właśnie na nich mamy się uczyć. Jeśli nie od razu zrozumiemy o co chodzi, to doświadczenia do nas wrócą. Będziemy popełniać wciąż te same błędy, wiązać się z takimi samymi ludźmi, reagować w podobny sposób, aż zrozumiemy, że nie tędy droga... A ludzie, którzy nas krzywdzą (i vice versa), to tak naprawdę nasze bliskie dusze, które wcześniej umówiły się, żeby razem z nami zagrać w teatrze życia.
Jeśli spojrzy się na wszystko z takiej perspektywy, to wszystko nagle nabiera sensu, a my w jednej chwili rozumiemy, że to nauka życia, a nie krzywda. Nie ma ofiar i nie ma katów. Są dusze odrabiające swoje lekcje. Wybaczenie daje ulgę przede wszystkim nam samym. Nie musimy informować o tym naszych krzywdzicieli. A tym bardziej rzucać się im w ramiona. W ogóle nie musimy się z nimi kontaktować. Ważne, że my sami czujemy się lepiej. To nam spada z serca ciężar czasem noszony przez całe życie.
Czuję, że ta książka będzie na samym szczycie mojej tegorocznej top-listy.

When I looked at the act of forgiveness, it was from my parent's eyes. Tell him/her that you are sorry. It was something that was instilled in me. Then it became something that I was guilty about. It I am not able to forgive, how can I move forward....only I could not forgive. I did a "shit tonne" of personal growth work in the seminar world and had some experience with the "feeling of forgiveness". Then, just when I was ready to approach the concept of Radical Forgiveness, along came Colin Tipping's book. My consciousness was truly expanded and blown wide open. I extol this book and dare anyone looking for a way out of the rat race of blame and anger - ...... just read on!

This book allowed me to grieve, heal, surrender, find acceptance, and finally forget about the past hurts, aches, and pains. I found myself stuck in a new relationship because I refused to surrender and find acceptance with things that transpired within my life. This book makes sense if you truly want to grow within and outside of yourself.

Self-Help in New Age clothing. Some interesting core concepts dressed up in hippie dippie tie-dye with a dash of pseudoscience. Always be suspicious of patent medicines and authors of mystical improvement books that warn you that you don't have to believe in the process for it to work.

The author's main premise is that our souls made an agreement before inhabiting these bodies to put each other through trials in order to develop traits for eternity. Thus, any wrong we perceive is what we desire on a deeper level.

Cute. Total hogwash, but cute.

This book suggests looking at every experience as your perfect learning opportunity. Then, rather than be offended, upset, or hold a grudge, you can give thanks for what you learned. Like _The Four Agreements_ this also forces you to recognize your responsibility in any situation, from creating to reacting...Like _A Course in Miracles_ it teaches to achieve forgiveness by changing your perception.

And it works: one day I changed my perception about an ongoing situation with a close relative, and that night he called me, ostensibly to ask about my kids, but he and I chattted for a long time and he never asked to talk to them.

Honestly I didn't even finish the first chapter it's such bullshit. I wanted to learn about forgiveness, was wondering if everything CAN be forgiven, wondering if everything SHOULD be forgiven, also HOW to forgive.

I'll summarize the first chapter for you ( or as much as I read) : be thankful your husband cheated on you multiple times, because he was giving you the opportunity to reach your full potential and heal yourself.
like wtf?

Like any book of its type, it gets some things right and some things wrong but presents it all like there is only one absolute truth and "that" truth is theirs. What these authors/books can rarely capture is that there are as many "truths" as there are sentient beings. They should all be prefaced with "take what you need and leave the rest."

Ця книжка для тих, хто хоче розібратися в поточних подіях власного життя, що не дають спокою, кому важливо зрозуміти причини постійно повторюваних ситуацій та завершити їхній цикл, зрозуміти джерела подій у світі.

Колін Тіппінг пропонує ознайомитися з теорією та практикою розв’язання застарілих внутрішньо особистісних конфліктів, розблокувати ментальні шляхи, випустити енергію любові, прийняття та пробачення у вільне плавання, як це й має бути у здоровому тілі та душі.

Книжка написана простою і зрозумілою мовою. Навіть людина, недосвідчена в хитросплетіннях психології, езотерики, біоенергетики, східної філософії та медицини, її легко зрозуміє. Перший розділ – це опис складної ситуації, що склалася в сім’ї сестри самого автора. На прикладі цієї історії читач із перших сторінок занурюється в описи вирішення проблеми. Цим наочним прикладом автор підводить до суті техніки радикального пробачення, чому й присвячена основна частина книжки. Наприкінці подані інструменти практичного застосування техніки, випробувані автором особисто на учасниках його семінарів і просто на людях, які висловили бажання змінити своє життя на краще. Деякі з інструментів я випробувала й на собі. Звісно ж, нічого надприродного не відбувається, та й не в цьому сенс. Важливо те, що свідомість дійсно зміщується, і давня образа починає сприйматися в конструктивному ключі. А це й є основною ідеєю. Величезна кількість людей живе з комплексом жертви, найсильнішим відчуттям провини та образи, а це аж ніяк не сприяє гармонійній течії життя. Але все можливо виправити, варто лише визнати проблему, прийняти себе в ній та своє до неї ставлення, трансформувати енергію та закріпити її в свідомості в новій якості.

Цю книжку важливо читати, абстрагувавшись від своїх переконань. Атеїсти, адепти матеріалістичного підходу, професійні психологи та прихильники наукового знання можуть скептично сприймати розмірковування автора про спільну божественну ідею, чакри, енергетичні тіла людини, ауру тощо. Але автор використовує саме такі поняття. Це його світобачення та спосіб спілкування із всесвітом. Ми ж, читачі, вільні підставити будь-яке інше поняття, яке близьке саме нам. Сутність явищ залишиться тією ж самою. Важливо, щоби ми щиро прагнули виправити ситуацію, яка не дає нам спокою іноді багато років. Варіанти, як саме її виправити, нам і дає книжка «Радикальне Пробачення».

What did I just read?!🤮
This is one of the most ignorant and uneducated books I have ever read. Contradictory in everything that it says, with no understanding of anything that it claims. Not even a half-assed attempt at explaining its claims.
Quantum Physics supports this so much! Oh, yeah? How? I just have to take your word for it? Experts in the fields of medicine, astrophysics, and other sciences will fight the hardest to hold onto the old ways, because everyone knows that the people working hardest to change the world and how we perceive the universe are the most stubborn and willfully ignorant in the universe!
You don’t have to believe in god for this to work for you, you just have to accept that his is real, makes no mistakes, and everything is perfect. Let me repeat that; you don’t have to believe in god, just believe that god doesn’t make mistakes.
That assault you suffered that has you living with PTSD? Why that’s a gift that you asked for and should be grateful for!
Partner cheating on you? That’s a gift! You needed them to cheat. Your spirit asked them to cheat.
This book is so f*****g dumb. I’m returning it.

This is an interesting little book...I keep saying to myself, "THAT'S what I've been saying for decades!!"

This book was recommended to me when I complained bitterly about having people tell me that I was doomed to repeat certain scenarios until I'd gleaned whatever truths I was supposed to learn from them. I might have also said, "I've had enough of this crap!! Just tell me what the heck all this is supposed to mean?? I haven't figured it out yet, and I'm tired of doing it!!"

Well, I still haven't figured it out, and I'm not done reading the book. There are so many questions, but when I'm done with the book, I hope I'll know at least some of the answers. And if not, Colin should expect an email from me.

In the meantime, I'm just so pleased that the book seems to support things I have thought about for most of my life. We'll see if I feel this pleased when I'm done reading it. It is kind of dry, and really not an easy read. Well, not to me.

I completed this book because I just don’t like not finishing what I started. I disagree with saying you need to thank people for the bad they do on cases such as murder, rape, genocide etc.... also if we can’t remember our past life or our “spiritual life” where is the author getting his facts from? I just think this kind of book plays on people’s desperation and need to feel connected to something.

Не моя книга взагалі. Як на мене, це про терапію, але з більш езотеричним підходом. Є описані кейси, які на жаль я не можу поки що сприйняти. Але буду використовувати деякі техніки для зйілення травм - може допоможе)
