Here at the Gupta Program we don’t use the word “relapse”, that’s quite a heavy word, instead we call it a “dip”.

When we are having a bad day, we can sometimes think that the program is not working for us and we are back to square one.

But when a baby learns to walk, it may fall down many times, but it always gets back up again and keeps going.

The retraining has had an effect. All we have to do is float through the dip, stay calm and relaxed and we will get back to where we started before we had the dip.

We can accept that it will be a journey of ups and downs and that’s ok.

Being calm and optimistic through the dips is an important skill
