Atypical "miracle"
My process is indeed "atypical", all reports I have heard of "beginners" fall in
one of four "types":
- the first lesson was marvelous and I was immediately hooked
- I did not feel anything but it was ...(nice, relaxing, etc.) so I kept doing it
- You will probably not notice any change before 6 or 7 lessons
- You will need at least 30 lessons to get any results (starting with daily frequence and then reducing
to weekly)
The fact I was away during the work days of week prevented me from starting with an intensive "treatment"/re-education
but it
probably also helped me to keep the patience and not expect any fast results.
And between every two lessons I had one or two weeks to "work on" what I had learned so that
I probably "worked on it" more then
most people would do, as beginners would probably tend to go to the A.T. lesson for the "work-out"
and forget it until the next
lesson.
I could not go back to the lesson every couple of days and had a strong motivation of pemanent pain
so I did not "forget about it".
