In this field of activity and human relations our patient especially critically felt own inferiority. Parents coddling attitude, "escape" from any strain, kilograms (sometimes tens) of excess weight, or on the contrary, excessive leanness and other physical disadvantages very often are a basis of his pathological evolution. It is known, that any restriction of body mobility is simultaneously a result and the reason of mental and emotional difficulties. Not resolved children's conflicts and problems result in chronic strain that in turn generates new emotional problems. Conscious persistent regular performance of physical exercises, emotional relations with himself and associates are, in our opinion, that soil where the person grows and evolutions, as opposed to growing of his claims to people. Therefore sports in our system of rehabilitation are not cheerful entertainment and pastime, and that is an integral part of the complex system, the hard work form over own problems.
Already in the first days, being hardly involved in morning jog, overcoming for the first time a minimum distance, the beginner with surprise finds out, that associates, yesterday with neglect concerning his stories about "feats", instead of habitual and expected sneers, show approval and respect for its efforts. Gradually, increasing efforts, overcoming laziness, weakness, pain, he even more often risks being himself, begins to respect himself and to feel respect of associates, what he had never done before. With a surprise, the young man starts to feel, and then understands that he is not "greatest", and is not "pettiness", but is the person who is not able to do much, but will necessarily achieve if he works tensely on himself.
A qualitative new experience of deserved victory is very important. Similarity in internal experiences unites him with associates in the general aspiration. Feeling of participation appears. Instead of envy and hatred to stronger people, comes a respect of them, desire to be like them. A strong motivation to perfection is framing. A belief in own absolute disability changes to feeling of a dissatisfaction by own poor abilities, which is certainly necessary and useful ability and knowledge for the person, and is a powerful stimulus for perfection. For the first time in a life, purposes can be clearly formulated and discussed aloud. He starts to think of a real situation, instead of being anxious by grandiose dreams. Gradually he begins to understand, that he is capable of being responsible for own mood by himself (instead of through estimations of others), that the respect of people is much more important than short-term admiration.
Many things change already within the first month. He runs a daily distance well, in full carries out basic sport exercises. Instead of a habitual cud and chocolates, he studies to meal in useful balanced way. The first kilograms of excess weight have already gone, the muscles have got stronger, and he already can limit himself in many respects. He becomes proud of the though small, but real achievements. So there comes an interest to sports. Possibility of participation in trainings on primary sports is discussed, and after complete exam on physical normative he is admitted. We encourage any forms of conscious and reasonable activity, but football and powerlifting are already traditional. Since 2007 we have “grown” in every respect to carry out our old intention in practice: include the judo that we understand first of all, as a system of development and perfection philosophy into system of rehabilitation of addicts.
