Just speaking from my experience so far, I think one of the gifts we give our therapists is ourselves. When we get to a place of trusting even a tiny little bit, that's an awesome gift. Yes, we give them money, but when we give of ourselves, it priceless - on both sides. jmho.

Happiness cannot be found
through great effort and willpower,
but is already present,
in open relaxation and letting go.

Don't strain yourself,
there is nothing to do or undo.
Whatever momentarily arises
in the body-mind
Has no real importance at all,
has little reality whatsoever.

Don't believe in the reality
of good and bad experiences;
they are today's ephemeral weather,
like rainbows in the sky.
