Very interesting work, would be happy to share my experiences and contribute.

Not such an easy topic, even if desired behaviours could be imagined, many would find them almost alien, presenting quite an educational challenge. An apt analogy would be, its very difficult to explain to a catterpillar what it's like to be a butterfly.

Ingredients like faith and trust then tend to be pre-requisits, together with an unwaivering principle and you might just have the possibility of a successful transition. Afterwards the butterfly can never return to being a caterpillar no matter what!

Food for thought??
yours truly
