why you can’t forgive until you do this one thing | gabrielle bernstein

This week on Dear Guides, I sat down with my dear friend and longtime teacher, spiritual intuitive Colette Baron-Reid, to talk about something so many of us carry without realizing it: an energetic cord to someone we resent. We get into what a cord attachment actually is, why it lives in your solar plexus, and how it’s often rumination, not the original moment, that keeps a cord alive.

Colette also gets honest about when this work can stay light, like a coworker who was rude to you or an ex from years ago, and when it needs real therapeutic support alongside it, drawing from her own healing journey. She closes the episode by leading a live cord-cutting meditation so you can start releasing resentment now.
