About Matt Ingrams

Matt Ingrams, the creator of theforgivenessworks , is a husband, father, facilitator and trainer dedicated to living truthfully and enabling others to do the same. 

Matt has over 20 years of experience in the fields of personal development and care, including counselling training and practice, residential social work with young people in care, mentoring, and developing trainings for those dealing with trauma and the effects of P.T.S.D. Throughout all these activities Matt has faced his own 'demons'; overcoming, or rather letting go of, alcohol addiction and clinical depression through committment to the love at the core of everything, including himself!

Living truthfully is all about reconnecting with this love through honest ownership and release of whatever is in the way.

 theforgivenessworks is the result of years of dedicated study into, and experimentation with, the nature of this process. Everything Matt teaches has been filtered and discovered through the rigorous testing ground of his own experience. This has not been a solitary journey though. Matt is aware that Grace has danced with him in this creative process, even if he was often unaware of its presence. 

" I love God and am blessed to be doing my hearts work. I have a deeply personal relationship with this something, this Love I call God. Through my 'walk' with forgiveness I cannot deny the truth of my own incredible experiences of receiving and opening to this unconditional Love. But I cannot describe this adequately and do not require others to agree with me. My desire is only to enable others to have their own experience of the wonder and innocence at the heart of their humanity, and deliver to them a key to this place they can use whenever they choose. .

To me the names and labels we use are often, in fact usually, blockers to the Flow, obstructions to connection. theforgivenessworks is all about unblocking this flow and liberating us from our often destructive and painful bondage to belief systems and dogma. It is also about owning our own truth in innocence, even while knowing we may be judged or provoke a strong reaction. In my consciousness I have released the word God from the associations that used to weigh me down and provoke rebelliousness in me.So I am blessed to say 'I love God' That is my truth that I own in joy .

One last thing, although it is not really about me.We often think forgiveness is about other people; Actually it is all about ourselves.

Love and Blessings on your journey."
