that you are tiring less quickly, and that in the end you are daring to try exercises that you previously would have thought completely impossible. You will be extending your field of options and at the same time this will increase your self-confidence. But you may also improve your self-confidence by the things you don't do. During the therapy, you will have to manage without coffee, alcohol, cigarettes...To begin with, you may feel that doing without these is unacceptable. But you will then discover that overcoming your dependency on stimulants, for instance, is not as impossible as you had thought, and that relaxation does not have to be associated with cigarettes, but is achieved much better by walking, yoga, dancing… You will experience a feeling of freedom and autonomy that will increase your self-esteem. In this sense, the entire duration of your treatment is a practice- run for a healthier way of life.
