80% of your participants forgiving themselves and the person who has hurt them. This forgiveness measure is a proxy for increased mental and physical health.
100% of your participants learning hands on activities that they can use personally, with their families, in their communities and in their work to reduce stress and anger as well as build resiliency.
50% of your participants reporting 3 – 6 months after the training to having more energy, sleeping better, and having less physical pains such as headaches, backaches and stomachaches.
