The Forgiving Life by Robert D Enright
Validated research guides readers through forgiving emotional wounds by offering steps to release depression, anger, and resentment without forcing reconciliation. Reflective questions and journaling exercises empower individuals to confront pain and embrace a healing path that fosters love and compassion.
Robert D. Enright, PhD, is a licensed psychologist and a professor of educational psychology at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. He has been a leader in the scientific study of forgiveness and its effects since 1985. Time magazine referred to him as "the forgiveness trailblazer". He is the author of more than 100 publications, including five books. In 2022, he received the American Psychological Foundation Gold Medal Award for Impact in Psychology for his innovative work in forgiveness.
He and his colleagues have developed and tested a pathway to forgiveness that has helped incest survivors, and people in drug rehabilitation, in hospice, in shelters for abused women, and in cardiac units of hospitals, among others. His recent work has been in schools within conflict regions, such as Belfast, Northern Ireland, assisting teachers to deliver forgiveness programs to students.
