Tunapoumizwa sana na mtu mwingine, ni vigumu kuzingatia kitu kingine chochote isipokuwa maumivu yetu. Tunaposalitiwa, kutendewa vibaya, kutukanwa, kuonewa, au kutendewa vibaya, inaweza kuharibu ulimwengu wetu wa ndani kiasi kwamba hatufikirii kamwe tutaweza kuendelea mbele, sembuse kusamehe - na hatufikirii mtu aliyetukosea anastahili.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Msamaha ni hatua tunayoweza kuchukua ili kusaidia\u00a0<strong>sisi wenyewe\u00a0<\/strong>kushinda maumivu na chuki tunayohisi. Msamaha mara nyingi huonekana kama kitu unachompa mkosaji wakati kwa kweli, msamaha ni sadaka tunayoweza kujitolea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"mb-2 wp-block-paragraph\">Kitendo cha msamaha kina faida kadhaa za kiafya. Hapa kuna chache:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Msamaha unahusishwa na maisha marefu na mfumo imara wa kinga. Kushikilia hasira na maumivu huweka mwili katika hali ya kupigana-kukimbia-kuganda kila mara - na viwango hivyo vya msongo wa mawazo vinaweza kusababisha madhara mwilini (shinikizo la damu, kukosa usingizi, msongo wa mawazo, matatizo ya mmeng&#039;enyo wa chakula, n.k.\u2026). Kupitia uchovu kunaweza pia kusababisha ugumu katika kudhibiti hisia hasi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hupunguza hatari yako ya mshtuko wa moyo.\u00a0<em>kutoa<\/em>\u00a0na\u00a0<em>kupokea<\/em>\u00a0msamaha hupunguza shinikizo la damu,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/faculty.wcas.northwestern.edu\/eli-finkel\/documents\/InPress_HannonFinkelKumashiroRusbult_PersonalRelationships_000.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Utafiti wa 2011<\/a>\u00a0Imepatikana. Pia husaidia kupunguza viwango vya kolesteroli.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Msamaha husaidia katika afya ya akili na hupunguza wasiwasi, mfadhaiko, na msongo wa mawazo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Matokeo yanaonyesha kwamba msamaha unahusiana na kujithamini zaidi, hisia bora kwa ujumla, na mahusiano yenye furaha zaidi.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ninajua kwamba kuona tu orodha ya faida za msamaha hakufanyi iwe rahisi kufanya hivyo. Nimegundua kuwa hadithi hizi nne za uongo zinazohusu msamaha zimenisaidia kushinda vikwazo nilivyoweka ndani dhidi ya kuwasamehe wale walionikosea kwa njia ambazo zimeathiri maisha yangu kwa muda mrefu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hadithi #1: Msamaha unamaanisha kukubali au kusamehe kile kilichotendeka.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Msamaha si kusamehe au kupuuza yaliyotokea. Haifanyi yaliyofanyika kuwa sawa. Ni kuhusu kutegemea maumivu na kukubali na kukubali mateso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Msamaha unahusisha kuachilia uchungu na kutokuruhusu uwe mgumu huku ukijua kwamba kilichokupata kilikuwa kibaya. Bado unaweza kuumia bila kuruhusu kifunge moyo wako.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hadithi #2: Msamaha unamaanisha kwamba lazima urudi kwenye uhusiano wa awali.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hadithi moja kuhusu msamaha ni kwamba kumsamehe mtu kunamaanisha unahitaji kuanzisha uhusiano na mtu aliyekukosea. Ukweli ni kwamba, msamaha hauhitaji kuhusisha kupatana na mtu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maridhiano ni tofauti na msamaha; yanahitaji makubaliano kati ya pande zote mbili. Msamaha unahitaji mtu mmoja tu kutokea. Mtu mwingine hata hahitaji kujua kwamba inatokea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hadithi #3: Ninaweza kusamehe tu ikiwa mtu mwingine &quot;anastahili.&quot;\"<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Msamaha ni kazi ya ndani. Inaweza kutokea hata kama mtu mwingine hamiliki matendo yake. Huenda hata asijutie. Kuachilia nguvu ya &quot;kutosamehe&quot; ni jambo jema kwa nafsi. Maumivu ni kama sumu. Msamaha unaweza kusaidia maumivu yasiharibu utu wetu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hadithi #4: Msamaha unamaanisha maumivu yatatoweka.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Msamaha haimaanishi kwamba maumivu tunayohisi yatatoweka. Maumivu haya yanaweza kuwa nasi milele. Kuchagua kutoa nguvu uliyonayo ndani kuhusu hali hiyo huenda kusiponye maumivu ya awali, lakini kunaweza kuponya athari na ulinzi tulionao kwa maumivu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sasa nini?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukisoma hadithi hizi za uongo na una nia ya kuingia katika tendo la msamaha, unaweza kujiuliza jinsi ya kuchukua hatua ya kwanza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kituo Kikuu cha Sayansi Bora cha Berkeley kina mazoezi,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ggia.berkeley.edu\/practice\/eight_essentials_when_forgiving\" rel=\"\">Mambo Nane Muhimu Wakati wa Kusamehe<\/a>, ambayo nitashiriki hapa chini:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jinsi ya kufanya hivyo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tengeneza orodha ya watu ambao wamekuumiza sana kiasi cha kutosha kustahili juhudi ya kusamehe. Unaweza kufanya hivi kwa kujiuliza kwa kipimo cha 1 hadi 10, Nina maumivu kiasi gani kuhusu jinsi mtu huyu alivyonitendea?, huku 1 ikihusisha maumivu madogo zaidi (lakini bado ni muhimu vya kutosha kuhalalisha muda wa kusamehe) na 10 ikihusisha maumivu mengi zaidi. Kisha, waagize watu walio kwenye orodha hii kuanzia maumivu madogo hadi maumivu zaidi. Anza na mtu wa chini kabisa katika ngazi hii (anayehisi maumivu mengi).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fikiria kosa moja la mtu wa kwanza kwenye orodha yako. Jiulize: Je, kosa la mtu huyu limeathirije maisha yangu vibaya? Tafakari madhara ya kisaikolojia na kimwili ambayo huenda yamesababisha. Fikiria jinsi maoni yako kuhusu ubinadamu na uaminifu kwa wengine yalivyobadilika kutokana na kosa hili. Tambua kwamba kilichotokea hakikuwa sawa, na jiruhusu kuhisi hisia zozote hasi zinazojitokeza.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp;Ukiwa tayari, fanya uamuzi wa kusamehe. Kuamua kusamehe kunahusisha kukubaliana na kile utakachokuwa ukifanya unaposamehe\u2014kutoa tendo la huruma kwa mtu aliyekuumiza. Tunapompa rehema hii, tunajaribu kimakusudi kupunguza chuki (nia isiyokoma) kwa mtu huyu na, badala yake, tunampa wema, heshima, ukarimu, au hata upendo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp;Ni muhimu kusisitiza kwamba msamaha hauhusishi kusamehe matendo ya mtu, kusahau kilichotokea, au kutupa haki kando. Haki na msamaha vinaweza kufanywa pamoja. Tahadhari nyingine muhimu: Kusamehe si sawa na kupatanisha. Maridhiano ni mkakati wa mazungumzo ambapo watu wawili au zaidi hukutana tena kwa uaminifu wa pande zote. Huenda usichague kupatanisha na mtu unayemsamehe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anza na mazoezi ya utambuzi. Jiulize maswali haya kuhusu mtu aliyekuumiza: Maisha yalikuwaje kwa mtu huyu alipokuwa akikua? Ni majeraha gani aliyopata kutoka kwa wengine ambayo yangeweza kumfanya awe na uwezekano mkubwa wa kukuumiza? Ni aina gani za shinikizo au msongo wa mawazo wa ziada ulikuwa katika maisha ya mtu huyu wakati alipokukosea? Maswali haya hayakusudiwi kusamehe au kukubali, bali ni kuelewa vyema maeneo ya maumivu ya mtu mwingine, maeneo yanayomfanya awe katika mazingira magumu na ya kibinadamu. Kuelewa kwa nini watu hufanya vitendo vya uharibifu kunaweza pia kutusaidia kupata njia bora zaidi za kuzuia vitendo vingine vya uharibifu kutokea katika siku zijazo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kuwa mwangalifu kuhusu mwendo wowote mdogo wa moyo wako ambao unaanza kuhisi hata huruma kidogo kwa mtu aliyekukosea. Mtu huyu anaweza kuwa amechanganyikiwa, amekosea, na amepotoshwa. Anaweza kujutia sana matendo yake. Unapomfikiria mtu huyu, angalia ikiwa unaanza kuhisi hisia laini kumhusu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp;Jaribu kubeba maumivu waliyokusababishia kwa uangalifu ili usije ukamrudishia maumivu hayo yule aliyekukosea, au hata kwa wengine wasio na uhakika, kama vile wapendwa ambao hawakuwa ndio waliokuumiza hapo awali. Tunapoumia kihisia, huwa tunahamisha maumivu yetu kwa wengine. Tafadhali fahamu hili ili usiendelee na urithi wa hasira na majeraha.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fikiria zawadi ya aina fulani ambayo unaweza kumpa mtu unayejaribu kumsamehe. Msamaha ni tendo la huruma\u2014unamrehemu mtu ambaye huenda hakukuhurumia. Hii inaweza kuwa kupitia tabasamu, simu inayorudiwa, au neno zuri kuwahusu kwa wengine. Daima fikiria usalama wako kwanza unapoonyesha wema na nia njema kwa mtu huyu. Ikiwa kuingiliana na mtu huyu kunaweza kukuweka hatarini, tafuta njia nyingine ya kuelezea hisia zako, kama vile kwa kuandika kwenye shajara au kushiriki katika mazoezi kama vile kutafakari huruma.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hatimaye, jaribu kupata maana na kusudi katika yale uliyopitia. Kwa mfano, watu wanapoteseka kutokana na dhuluma za wengine, mara nyingi hugundua kuwa wao wenyewe wanakuwa nyeti zaidi kwa maumivu ya wengine. Hii, kwa upande wake, inaweza kuwapa hisia ya kusudi la kuwasaidia wale wanaoumia. Inaweza pia kuwahamasisha kufanya kazi ili kuzuia dhuluma za aina kama hiyo zijazo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukishakamilisha mchakato wa msamaha ukiwa na mtu mmoja kwenye orodha yako, chagua mtu anayefuata kwenye mstari na usonge mbele kwenye orodha hiyo hadi utakapomsamehe mtu aliyekuumiza zaidi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tunapopinga hadithi hizi za uongo na kukumbatia uelewa wa kina wa msamaha, kumbuka kwamba msamaha ni kitendo kikubwa cha kujihurumia. Kwa kufichua dhana hizi potofu, tunajiwezesha kupona na kuunda nafasi ya amani kubwa ndani ya mioyo yetu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Vyanzo:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliedcompassionacademy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mafunzo ya Huruma Inayotumika ya Chuo Kikuu cha Stanford CCARE<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/greatergood.berkeley.edu\/article\/item\/the_new_science_of_forgiveness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sayansi Mpya ya Msamaha na Kituo Kikuu cha Sayansi Nzuri cha Berkeley<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/ggia.berkeley.edu\/practice\/eight_essentials_when_forgiving\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mambo Nane Muhimu Wakati wa Kusamehe na Kituo Kikuu cha Sayansi Bora cha Berkeley<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/greatergood.berkeley.edu\/article\/item\/eight_keys_to_forgiveness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Funguo Nane za Msamaha na Robert Enright<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/forgiveness-health-benefits_n_6029736\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Njia 8 Msamaha Ulivyo Mzuri kwa Afya Yako na Huffpost<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/faculty.wcas.northwestern.edu\/eli-finkel\/documents\/InPress_HannonFinkelKumashiroRusbult_PersonalRelationships_000.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Athari za kutuliza za msamaha kwa shinikizo la damu la waathiriwa na wahalifu na Chuo Kikuu cha Northwestern<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/wellness-and-prevention\/forgiveness-your-health-depends-on-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Msamaha: Afya Yako Inategemea Huo na Hopkins Medicine<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forgiveness can be challenging.
