RESULTS

◦ As a result of this study, participants who participated in a 1.5-hour workshop practice contributed to develop an insight into the sources of balance in their daily lives and the life events they define on these balance dimensions. In this context, it can be said that even short-term studies based on PPT can contribute to individual's self-help skills.

SUGGESTIONS

◦ This study can be developed with a contious study to determine whether these workshops are useful toincrease awareness on Positive and Transcultural Psychotherapy or not.

◦ Also possible relations of WIPPF results with different inventories on self-awareness and life satisfactionmight looked at different studies.

◦ For further studies; the number of participants can be increased to examine possible significant differences.
