Selma Geis studied psychology and philosophy before embarking on a 20-year teaching career while raising her two now grown-up sons. She draws on her lifelong experience in the educational sector and her own personal journey toward forgiveness to help all those wanting to free themselves from unhealthy parental ties. Her goal is to provide practical strategies for anyone wishing to move toward a place of forgiveness and fulfillment, whatever their parental upbringing.
Selma was inspired to write about the importance of forgiveness after her own experience of growing up with an abusive father. Unable to forgive or forget, it wasn’t until his death that she began to work through her feelings of anger and resentment that had accumulated over the years. By researching current insights into the psychology of parental forgiveness and attending seminars by leading voices on the subject, Selma eventually came to terms with her father’s “unforgivable” behavior. She was able to release herself of the negative emotions that such unhealthy relationships create and move toward a place of healing, compassion, and empowerment.
Selma hopes to inspire her readership to take control of their own lives by replacing bitterness with forgiveness.
