Description
A two days workshop with Olivier Clerc (15th-16th of November 2025)
This workshop is rooted in the life-changing experience that don Miguel Ruiz offered Olivier Clerc in Teotihuacan, Mexico, in 1999, after Olivier translated and published The Four Agreements in French. That profoundly transformative encounter inspired a book, now available in nine languages. Since then, thousands of people across a dozen countries have attended this workshop.
Forgiveness… Few words carry as much emotional weight, yet remain so poorly defined. This makes forgiveness hard to understand—and even harder to practice. That’s why this workshop aims both to redefine forgiveness in a deeply hopeful way, and to offer you a powerful, firsthand experience of it. “The Gift of Forgiveness” is above all a process to be lived.
It is also a transpersonal ritual—simple, yet profoundly healing—that allows you to experience forgiveness toward others and toward yourself, even when the people concerned are absent or have passed away. It helps your heart to heal and release layers of resentment, anger, sorrow, or hatred—emotions that block your heart from loving fully.
You’ll discover that it’s possible to forgive and still seek justice; that while forgiveness heals the heart, we also need the clarity of the mind; and that discernment is essential to avoid confusing forgiveness with excusing, condoning, or reconciling. Restoring peace in your heart does not mean giving up on justice—quite the opposite.
So free yourself from the poison of resentment, grudges, and hatred. Reclaim a loving heart—guided by an enlightened and discerning mind.
