How long ago? How was? Is it all its made out to be?
June 2011 in Israel.
It can potentially be a life changing experience depending on the person. What it does is help uncover hidden psychological issues, fears and blockages that stem from childhood and/or traumatic events. Obviously, being aware of these issues helps you deal with them. The benefits of the program vary depending on how bottled up the person is to begin with and his ability to let it all out.
That being said, it's a little weird and awkward and it's really a non-Jewish program shoved into a Jewish framework, which makes it seem a bit off.
I definitely gained a lot from it and I don't regret going but I don't consider it a life-changing experience.
