John has a bad day at work through problems and stress. He has quit smoking on his own months ago. But now he really needs a cigarette. He goes to an empty meeting room and starts Lisa on his smartphone. He has a good conversation with Lisa, who listens, leads to self-reflection, and a short online mental exercise (AURELIS). John can live through this working day without cigarettes. In the evening, he uses Lisa more profoundly. This is the first day of his journey towards becoming a non-smoker.

Dirk is an adolescent with hay fever. He experiences that stress has a substantial role in his attacks of allergy. He uses Lisa to get more insight into what ‘stress’ means to him personally. This way, he learns a lot about himself that he can build on and use for the rest of his life. The mental exercises also do their work bit by bit. Dirk has reduced his medication and can concentrate better on his study material. Together with Lisa as his motivator, he is in the habit of doing online mental exercises. Slowly but surely, he starts to learn other AURELIS domains. He has a lot of trust in this support as well as in himself.
