years ago, the Florida Hospital Department of Whole
health developed a program called Hypertension Reduction
through Forgiveness training. It began as a study
among persons aged 21+years with stage 1 hypertension.
Participants were randomly chosen to be either a
part of the control group or the intervention group.
The intervention group participated in and 8 week
forgiveness training and nothing else. The other
group only monitored their blood pressure for the
8 weeks. Result pointed
significant decrease in hypertension overall for
the group. This couple with health diet and exercise
is an effective, drug free way to manage this
hypertension, a precursor for coronary disease
& stroke.
Next session schedule for Spring
of 2007. Stay tuned for more information |
