Hi Mohamed, to add to what has already been said that if the BGP session with your neighbor supports Route Refresh capability, you will still be able to apply new policies softly - which helps overcoming the major drawback of resetting the session thus impacting the live service.
To check this out: "show ip bgp neighbor <IP address>" and then look at the "Neighbor capabilities" section.
