Stop Berating Yourself Over Past Mistakes With This 12-Minute Energetic Clearing Practice | The Sunday Reset

The Sunday Reset: weekly reflections on the healing practices that have brought me back to wholeness as I built a 6 figure business. Every Sunday, you’ll receive a new tool to reconnect you to self- so you can lead your business from a place of authenticity.

Are you still carrying the weight of something you wish you’d done differently?

That one conversation you can’t stop replaying.
That decision you made that didn’t turn out how you hoped.
That season of life you would do over if you could.

And there’s a reason you can’t “just move on.” or “get over”
This type of emotion: deep seated guilt, or shame, doesn’t release through logic.
It clears through energy.

This week on The Sunday Reset, I’m sharing the 12-minute energetic clearing practice that helped one of my clients stop berating herself over a past mistake — and finally feel free to move forward.

In this episode you'll learn:

  • The ancient Hawaiian ritual that helps you let go of self judgement

  • Why releasing the past is a crucial part of preparing for you next chapter

  • How to implement this 12 minute tool in your daily life


When We Don’t Know How to Let Go

The first time I witnessed how powerful this tool was, it wasn’t even through my own experience.


It was through one of my clients — a woman navigating the “failure” of her first business and trying to step into her next chapter as a meditation teacher.

But she couldn’t.
Because every time she sat down to create something new, the ghost of her “failure” haunted her.


You know that feeling? The low-grade hum of:
You don’t have what it takes to do this.
Why do you think it’ll be any different this time?
Who do you think you are to try again?

She wasn’t just stuck in her business — she was stuck in self-punishment.

So I gave her one simple homework assignment:

Try this forgiveness meditation

Two weeks later, she showed up a completely different person.

She looked softer. Lighter. Like a weight had lifted.

She told me, “I’ve been sleeping through the night. I’m leaping out of beds in the morning. I’m more present with my kids.”

She had been doing the forgiveness meditation every single day.

And without fully understanding what was happening- she was experiencing the magic of it.


“What Is This Sorcery”… you ask?

It’s called Ho’oponopono — an ancient Hawaiian healing ritual that means “to make right.”

The process is simple:

You repeat four phrases — either aloud or in your mind — while holding the memory, emotion, or person you want to clear in your awareness:

  1. I’m sorry.
    Acknowledging that the external world is a mirror of your internal state and something within you has participated in the creation of this. It’s taking responsibility- which really is taking power.

  2. Please forgive me.
    Asking the Universe to release the energetic patterns you have been stuck in. When you say these words- you are expressing your willingness to be free and. clear of any harmful unconscious programming.

  3. Thank you.
    Gratitude acknowledges that the healing process is already working. It shows your trust in the Universe- because you know that what you ask for has already started to unfold.

  4. I love you.
    This returns you back to oneness that is your true nature. Love dissolves judgment, fear, and separation. This is the return to wholeness.


Why Forgiveness Feels So Hard (And What It Actually Is)

Most people resist forgiveness because they think it means what happened was okay. But that’s not what forgiveness is.

Here’s the way I see it:

Forgiveness is neutralizing.
It’s moving from “this shouldn’t have happened” to “this happened”

It’s not about pretending the pain didn’t happen.
It’s about refusing to carry it any longer.

It’s not about condoning behavior
It’s dropping the fight against reality.

Forgiveness doesn’t mean “it was ok”. Forgiveness means- even if it wasn’t ok, I can’t change it, and I deserve to be free now.

Because when you're still holding the pain, the resentment, the anger, the blame — you’re the one carrying the weight.

You’re not letting someone off the hook. You’re unhooking yourself from a painful, unproductive emotional loop.

How to Try It

Here’s how I practice Ho’oponopono when I’m holding something heavy:

  1. Write down what exactly you want to forgive (hint: any memory that feels like a mistake or a regret is a good place to start)

  2. Play this Meditation: it’s my go to. There are 8.3M views right now, I think at least a 100k of them are mine.

  3. Let that be enough
    You don’t need to do anything else. Your intention + letting the mantra wash over you + your willingness to forgive is all that you need.
