Publisher's summary

This book is a guide for:
  • how to help your child be happy
  • how to heal child emotional pain
  • helping your child be peaceful
The scientifically supported methods offered by Dr. Jim Dincalci, a multiple award-winning author, will help teens and children feel better and move forward freed of resentment, guilt, and anger, by letting go of painful upsets or hurts.
  • It gives activities to help children's emotional development.
Decades of research and centuries of religious teaching support that forgiveness can help adults, adolescents, and children heal upsets and trauma of the past and enjoy better mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.

Studies show that forgiveness will help children acquire skills in (a) pro-social behaviors, (b) moral development, (c) dealing with aggressive behaviors and conflicts, (d) cooperation and team building.

Research shows that forgiveness is a prerequisite for:
  • decreasing anger.
  • initiating reconciliation.
  • facilitating interpersonal relationships.
It helps your child with:
  • depression, introversion, and anxiety.
  • aggressiveness and hostility.
  • positive mental health and well-being.
Forgiveness is connected to many positive personality traits, like:
  • Agreeableness
  • Conscientiousness
  • Emotion Management and stability
  • Compassionate understanding
Nobel Peace Prize winner, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, acknowledged Dr. Jim for contributing to his The Book of Forgiving and Jim’s spending “over twenty-five years counseling and teaching people who are struggling to forgive.”

Helping your child let go of regret, guilt, and self-blame is the true heart and force of this work, called Power Forgiveness. Self-forgiveness and self-compassion hold the key to releasing any upsets.

This book discusses the studies that help us understand forgiveness. Neuroscience has given us deep insight into the brain’s workings that have changed long-held assumptions about our thinking. Forgiveness research has given us untold data proving the power of forgiving on our mental, emotional, and physical health. Research in Forgiveness therapy has given us insight into making forgiveness counseling more effective.

“Dr. Jim Dincalci has been doing this work for decades and has amassed in this book a treasure trove of clear understanding, counseling wisdom and advice, and science that supports the importance of forgiveness for living a good life.”
- Dr. Loren Toussaint, Professor of Psychology, Director, Laboratory for the Investigation of Mind, Body, and Spirit

Dr. Jim draws on decades of extensive research, on dealing with Adverse Childhood Experiences, and highlights the role forgiveness plays in living through adversity and finding resilience during difficult circumstances. He applies research about children and teens dealing with childhood trauma, tragedy, and abuse.

Perhaps, most importantly, he offers some excellent resources to help facilitate forgiveness.
  • The book is also of value to therapists, counselors, medical professionals, pastors, and ministers.
There is not another book like it on helping children and teens forgive.

Dr. Jim Dincalci is also the author of the recently published, The Steps to Take for Complete Forgiveness: A Workbook, and How to Forgive When You Can’t, which has been published in 9 languages and sold 100,000 books worldwide.
