Countless textbooks and internet forums provide information on what we can do for their balanced physical and mental development, but with today’s knowledge, we can also review our childhoods and improve our self-perception.

We are now more aware of the complex process that defines our role in adulthood, which determines our ability to adapt to the challenges of modern society and the environment.
