2010 Forgiveness Workshop information

Since the 1980's, Dr. Eileen Borris has been on the front lines of forgiveness from the personal to the political. As a political psychologist Dr. Borris helps to rebuild war-torn countries such as Liberia, Nepal, Pakistan, India, Israel and the Occupied Territories. Her work focuses on reconciling centuries old conflicts and finding ways to forgive. Most recently Dr. Borris is working on a project at the United Nations to get a formal resolution passed through the General Assembly on forgiveness and its importance in the healing of nations. She is the author of two books on forgiveness: "Forgiveness the Ultimate Freedom," and "Finding Forgiveness: A 7 Step Program for Letting Go of Anger and Bitterness."

Dr Fred Luskin is the Director of the Stanford University Forgiveness Project, a Senior Consultant in Health Promotion at Stanford and an Associate Professor at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Dr. Luskin's best selling book, "Forgive For Good", outlines his ground breaking research which demonstrates that learning forgiveness leads to increased physical vitality, hope, greater self-efficacy and enhanced optimism. His research also shows that forgiveness lessens the physical and emotional toll of stress and decreases hurt, anger, depression and blood pressure. His work has been used as a response to the violence in Northern Ireland and Sierra Leone as well as with family members of people killed in the World Trade Center attack of 9/11.
