Autogenic Training is one of the most efficient techniques for stress reduction, relaxation, and healing power development; created in 1932, in Germany by the neuropsychologist Dr. J. W. Schultz. Practiced every day, it will give the same effects as the far East techniques, as meditation and yoga, but is accessible to everybody, not being related to any rituals, religious or cosmological expressions, not requiring a special room, clothing or other presetting elements. It can be practiced virtually everywhere: in your office, in a waiting room, in a plane or train, in a boring meeting.

Using basic elements from Eastern relaxation techniques, the Autogenic training fits the western individual's psychological structure, and by using simple mental exercises, will project a total mind and body relaxation, releasing the power of healing, creating a state of self-hypnosis. When the technique has been perfected, the training session can be ended with health correction formulas, which will dramatically improve health, strengthening the immune system. It is a perfect remedy for anxieties, neurosis, insomnia, emotional conflicts, releasing the creativity and increasing stamina. The advantages are innumerable.

There are no recorded negative effects caused by this training. The only prerequisite skill is patience, to be able to relax and contemplate passively the reaction of the body to the mental exercises, and regularity in practice.

Before starting the training, the student should look for a motivational support, which will give the strength to practice daily the few minutes of exercises.
