Ho’oponopono – forgiveness
Forgiveness A Hawaiian concept
Ho`oponopono is a traditional Hawaiian concept for reconciliation and forgiveness.
It is a simple and effective method of solving personal problems and conflicts and bringing harmony into relationships. It is rooted in the principle of resonance, the law of attraction.
We recognize our own share of conflicts, learn to forgive ourselves and others and thus free ourselves from trouble and groll.
It is about erasing stressful emotions and the dissolution of patterns and beliefs that restrict us. We learn to take the role of sacrifice and become the creator of our reality.
Ho`oponopono is considered one of the most effective ways to deal with conflict, which has ever been in a culture and is a powerful way to harmony and thus to inner and outer peace.
What is Ho'oponopono?
Ho’oponopono is a centuries-old Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. The name literally means “make something right” or “make it right”. This powerful method helps you solve personal problems, transform conflicts and create deep harmony in your relationships.
In essence, Ho’oponopono is based on the principle of resonance and the law of attraction: what we experience in the outside reflects our inner world. Through the conscious work with this method we take responsibility for our experiences and open the space for healing.
The four healing sentences
The heart of the modern Ho’oponopono practice is four simple but profound sentences:
“I’m sorry.”
We recognise our share of the situation without losing our blame.
“Please forgive me.”
We ask for forgiveness – ourselves, others and the universe.
“I love you.”
We open our heart and send unconditional love.
“Thank you.”
We express gratitude for healing and transformation.
How Ho'oponopono works
Owner responsibility instead of victim role
Ho’oponopono invites you to recognize your role in conflicts. Instead of accusing others, you ask yourself:
- “What in me created this situation?” This perspective is liberating because it gives you the power to bring about change.
Liberation of emotional ballast
Trouble, grudge and unprocessed emotions burden us like heavy stones. Through the practice of forgiveness – towards yourself and others – you dissolve these blocks and create space for ease and joy.
Healing at all levels
Ho’oponopono not only works on the conscious level. The method also achieves unconscious patterns, old injuries and transgenerational themes. Many people report surprising changes in relationships, health and living conditions.
Areas of application
Ho’oponopono can have support in many areas of life:
- Relationship conflicts – with partners, family, colleagues or friends
- Self sabotage – recurring negative patterns break through
- Professional challenges – stress, bullying or dissatisfaction
- Health topics – emotional causes of physical complaints
- Financial blockades – limiting beliefs about money and wealth
- Traumata and old wounds – gentle healing of past injuries
Practice in everyday life
Ho’oponopono is deliberately kept simple so you can apply it at any time:
- Identify a problem or conflict
- Take your feelings true– without evaluating them
- Talk the four sentences– loud or in thoughts, with sincerity
- Let go – trust the process of healing
You can practice Ho’oponopono in meditation, apply in acute conflict situations or use it as a daily ritual for internal purification.
Understanding the Resonance Principle
Ho’oponopono is based on the knowledge that our external reality is a mirror of our inner world. If we experience conflicts in the outside, this points to inner disharmony. By healing these inner themes, our external experience automatically changes.
This does not mean that you are “to blame” for everything that happens to you. Rather, it means that you have the power to transform your reality through internal work.
forgiveness as a key to freedom
True forgiveness is not an intellectual act, but a deep emotional liberation. If you can forgive yourself and others, you release the energetic fetters that bind you to painful experiences.
Forgiveness does not mean that you approve the behavior of others. It means that you are freeing yourself from the burden that groll and trouble bring.
