After taking part in the programme I realised that physically and mentally, I was feeling better! I perform the exercises from time to time. I started in a group, and I recommend taking help at the start. I find it difficult to motivate myself on my own, but I walk a lot and I have joined a walking club, which arranges properly organised walks.
