Watch your thoughts, [and name the feelings], they become words. Watch your words, they become actions [and feelings]. Watch your actions, they become habits. Watch your habits, they become your character. <Lao Tsu>

I.D. Yalomas (1985) about a therapeutic group:

It is a kind of SOCIAL LABORATORY, which continually promotes frank and open relationship with the other participants in the group discussion. This helps you to better know and understand your relationships with other people. To discuss the relations with other participants in the group is not easy; This is worrying and tensional. However, in order to make contact with strangers before it’s inevitable. On the other hand, it is important to establish appropriate relations with the people here, the group that this experience could be used in everyday situations. It is crucial to see their problems in interpersonal context. It is also important to emphasize that most of the benefits of the group can only be honestly and openly express their feelings arising from the group. This is the most important thing of work.
