Learn moreForgiveness Is a Choice is a self-help book for people who have been deeply hurt by another and caught in a vortex of anger, depression, and resentment. As a creator of the first scientifically proven forgiveness program in the country, Robert D. Enright shows how forgiveness can reduce anxiety and depression while increasing self-esteem and hopefulness toward one's future.
This groundbreaking work demonstrates how forgiveness, approached in the correct manner, benefits the forgiver far more than the forgiven. Filled with wisdom and warm encouragement, the book leads the listener on a path that will bring clarity and peace.
Enright is careful to distinguish forgiveness from "pseudoforgiveness" and to reassure listeners that forgiveness does not mean accepting continued abuse or even reconciling with the offender. Rather, by giving the gift of forgiveness, listeners are encouraged to confront and let go of their pain in order to regain their lives.
Robert D. Enright, PhD, holds the Aristotelian Professorship in Forgiveness Science within the Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is a licensed psychologist, and is cofounder of the International Forgiveness Institute. He is the author or editor of seven books, including The Forgiving Life, 8 Keys to Forgiveness, Forgiveness Therapy, and Forgiveness Is a Choice.
