When Hanna Kok’s husband was killed in an armed robbery, she faced a choice most of us pray we’ll never have to make: stay stuck in grief… or find a way to turn pain into something life-giving.
By the funeral, she had already chosen.
“I’m going to turn this into a blessing instead of a tragedy,” she told herself.
This wasn’t denial. It was the result of years of inner work, spiritual training, and one profound truth: forgiveness sets you free.
The Unseen Weight We Carry
Hanna knows firsthand that holding on to grudges, resentment, or grief doesn’t just hurt your mind—it wears down your body.
She’s seen people’s health collapse because they couldn’t let go. She’s also seen the opposite: women with severe hormonal issues, chronic fatigue, and emotional heaviness make dramatic turnarounds once they release old pain.
Forgiveness, she says, isn’t a soft, sentimental idea. It’s a physiological reset. It frees your hormones, your energy, and your life.
Healing Without the Fight
Hanna’s message is simple but radical: stop fighting your body.
Instead, listen to it. The symptoms you have whether it’s PMS, menopause struggles, fatigue, or mood swings—might be your body’s way of screaming, Something needs to change.
Most of us medicate, mask, or muscle through. Hanna teaches women to approach themselves with compassion instead of control, to let go of what’s eating them rather than only focusing on what they eat.
The Forgiveness Formula
-
Acknowledge the Valley – Don’t bypass the pain with fake positivity. Name it.
-
Ask “How Can I Move Forward?” – The question “Why me?” keeps you stuck. “How now?” sets you free.
-
Find the Gold – Every loss carries a lesson, strength, or opportunity. See it, and forgiveness gets easier.
-
Forgive Yourself First – The hardest, most liberating step of all.
The Ripple Effect
Hanna has watched women cancel scheduled surgeries, stop chronic bleeding, and regain vitality often in weeks because they worked on what was weighing them down emotionally.
She’s living proof too. At nearly 66, she says her stamina, health, and joy come from one thing above all: “Years of forgiveness work and releasing what doesn’t serve me.”
Why It Matters for You
If you feel disconnected from your body, burnt out, or emotionally heavy, Hanna’s advice is clear: you can’t heal alone. Get help, seek perspective, and don’t wait for a “cosmic wake-up call” to make a change.
Healing doesn’t start with a diet, a gym plan, or a pill. It starts with one decision: I’m done carrying this weight.
