: Tapping into the highest frequency of love to dissolve negativity and restore harmony. How to Practice Why I Decided to Try Ho'oponopono and What I Hoped to Find

is an ancient Hawaiian spiritual practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. Its name translates roughly to "to make right" ( = to make; ponop o n o = right, balanced, or in harmony).

The foundation of the practice is the radical belief that you are 100% responsible for everything that appears in your reality. This doesn't mean "blame," but rather a recognition that external problems—from relationship issues to financial blocks—are reflections of internal memories or "programs" running in your subconscious. By healing the part of yourself that created or attracted the situation, you heal the situation itself. The Four Sacred Phrases

: Acknowledging that something (even if you don't know what) has entered your "field" or consciousness that needs clearing.

: Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to release the memory and for the healing already taking place.
