Today she teaches at-risk girls how to rewrite the story of their lives, for therapeutic purposes, just as she did.<\/p>\n<p>Providing a personal example of how to re-write the story of your life, Izon says, &#8220;When I realized I could not get pregnant, I decided that there would be a family anyway.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Izon notes that her approach is not the same as Bibliotherapy. &#8220;It&#8217;s something completely different. Bibliotherapy is a therapeutic field that uses external content from the literature for therapy. That&#8217;s not what I do. I accompany the girls in their writing and direct them to proper writing. Through this, they go through an empowerment and strengthening process. I have a degree in psychology and a master&#8217;s degree in organizational consulting. The workshop is based on the positive psychology which I studied.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The whole article can be found at: <a href=\"https:\/\/xnet.ynet.co.il\/articles\/0,7340,L-5787767,00.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/xnet.ynet.co.il\/articles\/0,7340,L-5787767,00.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"980\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/04\/Hila-Yigal.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/04\/Hila-Yigal.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/04\/Hila-Yigal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/04\/Hila-Yigal-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" \/><figcaption>Hila Yigal Izon credit: ynet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During her military services, Hila Izon contracted leukemia.\u00a0 She learned that as a result of her treatment, she would never become pregnant.\u00a0 However, Izon recovered, got an education (she is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":60,"template":"","class_list":["post-27145","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/27145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/friends\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
