You Can Stop the Bullying–Find Out How
Unless we eliminate the anger in the hearts of those who bully, we will not eliminate bullying.
It is our contention that bullying starts from within, as anger, and comes out as displaced anger onto the victim. Our new Anti-Bullying Forgiveness Program targets this anger and then reduces it, thus reducing or eliminating the displaced anger which comes out as bullying.
Forgiveness: A Pathway to Emotional Healing – October 16
Spend the day gaining a new perspective on forgiveness with the man Time magazine calls “the forgiveness trailblazer” – Robert Enright, UW-Madison Professor and founder of the International Forgiveness Institute.
In this 6-hour program, you will learn the answers to these questions:
- What is forgiveness? What is it not?
- Why forgive?
- What is the pathway to forgiveness?
- How can you help your clients bring forgiveness to their lives; and how can we all bring forgiveness to our families, schools, work places and other communities for better emotional health?
Prof. Enright will also share his multi-step process leading to forgiveness, which is based on his more than 25 years of scientific research. Some concepts you will explore are:
- Uncovering Your Anger
- Deciding to Forgive
- Working on Forgiveness
- Discovery and Release from Emotional Prison
