Go into this therapy with an open mind, with a positive attitude. Decide at the very beginning that this is going to work because you want to participate in your healing.

Wilhelm von Humboldt said in the 18th century, “Language is, as it were, the external manifestation of the minds of the peoples. Their language is their soul, and their soul is their language.”
