Purposes: Stress is known as a factor inducing various diseases in the human body. The purpose was to conduct a study on the stress change of 62 subjects who performed the newly developed "Holistic Healing(HH)Program" through the Happy Healing Group Program. Methods: Six sessions of the HH program were performed once a week (90 minutes) at the Happy Healing Meeting, and were surveyed activities of each session in detail. The HH program was developed to be applied to the general public, and it was composed of three detailed introduction-development-finish phases for each session. Results: After performing the Happiness Healing Meeting with the HH program the stress factor significantly decreased to 26.371 points in the post-test average value than the pre-test average value (p<.000). Psychological and social stress was reduced considerably to 9.096 points in post-test than in the pre-test measurement. Stress-coping method was significantly higher in the post-test with 201.661 points compared to the pre-test. Mood state was 69.451 points in the pre-test and 123.983 points in the post-test, showing a significant difference (p<.000). Conclusions: In the subjects who have been applied the holistic therapy program to the happiness healing small group, was significantly decreased general or psychosocial stress, and the stress-coping style and mood state change tended to increase.

Objectives: This study was conducted to examine the educational needs of elderly hypertensive or diabetes patients and educators for the education program development of cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group in community. Methods: This study was conducted with 60 hypertensive or diabetes patients aged 65 years or above (cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group) who had registered KHyDDI(Korea Hypertension Diabetes Daegu Initiative) Project and attended Hypertension Diabetes Intervention Center Program, and with 44 educators in the center between June and August, 2009. Data were collected using questionnaires including general characteristics, educational objectives, curriculum, contents, and methods. Results: The major findings of this study were as follows: In education methods, cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group and educators both preferred small-grouped(5-9 persons) or individual education, 30min-1 hour, 50%-50% of theory-practice ratio, 3 months of education. In education contents, both groups needed all the suggested contents. Five categories would be suggested for the development of education program. The first category was that there was no significant difference between cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group's needs and knowledge. The second was category of low knowledge level in cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group's knowledge. The repeated education would be necessary for this category. The third was category with large standard deviation in cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group's knowledge. Individual education would be necessary for this category. The fourth category was that there was significant difference between cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group's knowledge and knowledge assessed by educators. The improvement of educator's education skill would be necessary for this category. The fifth category was that there was significant difference between cardiocerebrovascular high-risk group and educator's needs. Conclusions: Small group or individualized and staged education reflecting above cardiocerebrovascular high risk group and educators' needs should be developed for more effective education to prevent and manage the cardiocerebrovascular disease.
