THE 4 HEALING WORDS

OF HO'OPONOPONO

The Ho’oponopono process is very simple. Actual Ho’oponopono cleaning

process consists of repetitions of the following phrases:

• I am sorry
• Please forgive me
• Thank you
• I Love you

These repeated phrases will ignite the self transformation process for the
practitioner. This is exactly what Dr. Hew Len did to invite divine
transformation powers for his surrounding during his work at Hawaiian
mental hospital.

The most powerful phrases here are: “I Love You” and “Thank You”. The
powers of Love and Gratitude are unquestionable in every self-
empowerment teaching, school or religion.

Who do you say these phrases to? Essentially you just say them. No need to
feel anything special. As Dr. Hew Len often says “just do it”. The process is
as simple as breathing. When you breath in and breathe out – you clean
your body from processed “polluted” air and enrich it with fresh, oxygen
rich, good energy air. And all this happens without you mixing breathing
process with any esoteric or complicated practices. It just happens and your
body gets constant supply of oxygen.

The same happens with Ho’oponopono. You repeat these phrases just like
a mantra and the cleaning process happens. You may clean life situations,
places, relationships and of course financial situations. When something
comes to your awareness – you accept 100% responsibility for that and
repeat the cleaning process. No guilt trips. No intellectualizing. No
judgements. You clean. Divinity does the rest.

LET GO AND LET GOD

The amazing results seem like a miracle, but then miracles do happen when
you use Ho’oponopono, or Dr. Len’s updated version called Self I-Dentity
Through Ho’oponopono (SITH). The results are often astounding. Do you
need a miracle?

What you might wish to understand is how this can possibly work. How can
you heal yourself and have it heal others? How can you even heal
yourself?

Why would it affect anything “out there”? The secret is there is no such thing
as “out there” – everything happens to you in your mind. Everything you
see, everything you hear, every person you meet, you experience in your
mind. You only think it’s “out there” and you think that absolves you of
responsibility. In fact it’s quite the opposite: you are responsible for
everything you think, and everything that comes to your attention. If you
watch the news, everything you hear on the news is your responsibility. That
sounds harsh, but it means that you are also able to clear it, clean it, and
through forgiveness change it.
There are four simple steps to this method, and the order is not that
important. Repentance, Forgiveness, Gratitude and Love are the only forces
at work – but these forces have amazing power.

The best part of the updated version of Ho’oponopono is that you can do it
yourself, you don’t need anyone else to be there, you don’t need anyone to
hear you. You can “say” the words in your head. The power is in the feeling
and in the willingness of the Universe to forgive and love.

I’M SORRY
Step 1: Repentance

You are responsible for everything in your mind, even if it seems to be “out
there.” Once you realize that, it’s very natural to feel sorry.

This realization can be painful, and you will likely resist accepting
responsibility for the “out there” kind of problems until you start to practice
this method on your more obvious “in here” problems and see results.

Practice say, "I am sorry." Say it with deep and honest feeling. Breathe it
and think it. Utter it in whispers and shout it out loud, and do this without
judging yourself or your emotional process. We simply express from the
depth of our truth. We are ready to take 100% responsibility for everything in
our lives. Once we realize we caused our own reality, we feel a natural state
of remorse. This can be heavy and painful. It can ache and grind on our
mind for a while, but it will lead to further inner disclosures. This process
brings everything to the surface for examination. We find that everything in
our lives has been caused by what is "in here." Not what is "out there." We
admit our sorrow and then ask for forgiveness. Who do we ask? We ask
ourselves.We are responsible for our problems and we are responsible for
our forgiveness.

So choose something that you already know you’ve caused for yourself.
Over-weight? Addicted to nicotine, alcohol or some other substance? Do
you have anger issues? Health problems? Start there and say you’re sorry.
That’s the whole step: I’M SORRY. “I realize that I am responsible for the
(issue) in my life and I am sorry that something in my consciousness has
caused this.”

PLEASE FORGIVE ME
Step 2: Ask Forgiveness

Don’t worry about who you’re asking. Just ask! PLEASE FORGIVE ME. Say it
over and over. Mean it. If you can't mean it, then at least make an effort to
say the words. The constant practice will help you connect to the feling of
true forgiveness.

We say "Please forgive me!" We ask this earnestly and with great
compassion and love for ourselves. We whisper it and shout it. We demand
it, and we beg for it. Whatever we feel inside is the way we express these
powerful words. Repeat this over and over until the feelings have changed
and a sense of clarity emerges. Then we thank all who have participated in
this practice with us to also forgive us.

THANK YOU
Step 3: Gratitude

It doesn't matter who you thank. When you offer gratitude you are affecting
your soul which is connected to the souls of all. Thank yourself for the
courage to learn and change. Thank the people who surround you. Thank
those who participated in the illness or challenge even if you once believed
they caused the problem. Thank them for their willingness to play that role
so you could learn and grow. Thanking another is not an empty set of
words. They are words that have great power. It is not about being polite or
shallowly grateful. This thank you is about pulling gratitude from the depths of
all emotions in your heart and revealing them to another -- and to yourself.
And when you have offered gratitude for all aspects of your life, then offer
love to yourself for all that you are and all you can become.

Say “THANK YOU” – again it doesn’t really matter who or what you’re
thanking. Thank your body for all it does for you. Thank yourself for being
the best you can be. Thank God. Thank the Universe. Thank whatever it was
that just forgave you. Just keep saying THANK YOU.

I LOVE YOU
Step 4: Love

Say it often, say it to all who surround you, to your

friends, your job, your allies, even your enemies,
and remember, there are no enemies anymore.
There is only you. And now you can love
everything with complete honesty because you have shed all the layers of
guilt, pain, remorse, anger, and shame that kept Love withheld or restricted.
Say you love yourself and others with a deep sense of compassion and
honesty. If you don't feel the love, dig deeper. This expression of love often
brings tears to the eyes because it is such a pure emotion.

Say I LOVE YOU. Say it to your body, say it to God. Say I LOVE YOU to the
air you breathe, to the house that shelters you. Say I LOVE YOU to your
challenges. Say it over and over. Mean it. Feel it. There is nothing as
powerful as Love.
