Thanks for the support! We do have materials and would be happy to share. Also, just to be clear, three decades of work show important connections between stress and immune function. This work is also beginning to show a role in CFS as well. Admittedly, our work is in its early stages, but to say it "lacks scientific rigor" goes a bit far. If you'd like to see our science just ask, we'd be delighted to share. What encouraging feedback. Thanks for the support! We do have materials and would be happy to share.

Perhaps instead of linking with the Mayo Clinic he should link with the Cleveland Clinic and help researchers which have found that the XMRV virus predominates in the majority of CFS patients as well as other patients (prostate cancer)which have the same unique immune system defect (found worldwide). Viruses appear oblivious to forgiveness, but you just never know.:D Seriously, the stress theory is a popular one in psychosocial circles but there is currently no scientific link between stress and the specific immune system dysregulation found in patients with the XMRV virus. And forgiveness is always a good thing regardless of what disease you have or don't have. While Dr. Toussaint’s work is interesting it lacks scientific rigor.

Has this work produced a script or a process of going into or through forgiveness for the people in this training or therapy sessions?/ If so is this available for other ministries?

I do hope Dr Toussaint's work gets more coverage and funding. His work will provide further data that's sorely needed in this field. He's definitely right about this culture not promoting forgiveness very well. I wish him all the best! Wow! I do hope Dr Toussaint’s work gets more coverage and funding.
