Are you struggling to forgive yourself? Do you hold a grudge against someone who harmed you physically, emotionally, or mentally? Do you find it hard to forgive the adults in your life who were supposed to protect you, but didn’t? Do you hold resentment against a whole class of people because you’ve been discriminated against? I’VE BEEN THERE. I KNOW. I’m Dr. Carron Silva, Your Forgiveness Guide. As a woman of faith, I’ve spent the last 30 years seeking healing for sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, and healing from racial discrimination. What I’ve learned is that therapy could only take me so far. I believe that FORGIVENESS IS THE WAY TO INTERIOR FREEDOM, but we cannot do it alone. We need God, and in particular, Jesus, the Divine Physician, with the love of the Holy Spirit, to help us through a process of forgiveness. On this podcast, I talk about all the things that help you develop a lifelong skill of forgiveness and empower you to forgive yourself, others, and God. As a Certified Wholeness and Catholic Mindset Coach, I help you to navigate emotionally challenging situations, cultivate resilience after trauma, and in a nurturing emotionally safe, empathic, nonjudgmental, confidential coaching relationship.

In this episode, I explore the concept of spiritual bypassing, a term coined by Clinical Psychologist John Welwood in the 1980s. I discuss how spiritual practices can sometimes be used to avoid facing unresolved emotional issues and trauma, particularly in the context of religious observance. Drawing from personal experiences and biblical references, I delve into the dangers of disordered religiosity and how it can hinder true forgiveness, spiritual growth, and healing. Join me as I uncover ways to cultivate a genuine relationship with God that embraces suffering and leads to holistic healing.
