Autogenic Training

Autogenic Training in Bangalore

Autogenic training, also known as autogenic therapy, is a meditative tool that consists of a sequence of several simple mental exercises. It brings about mental and physical relaxation and balances the body and mind through practice. In the 1920s, a German psychologist named Johannes Schultz developed this method that uses breathing exercises, words, and mindful meditation to bring on a state of peace and calmness. It uses the body's natural relaxation response to ease mental and physical issues correlated to stress. Patients suffering from severe chronic health problems are offered autogenic training practice. These patients usually go through a lot of stress, which leads to physical and emotional difficulties.

Each session lasts 15 to 20 minutes, with trainees encouraged to practice daily at home. This therapy helps people to wake up their body's calmness and helps them control emotions, blood pressure, and heart rate when they are stressed. Experts help people learn six simple ways over months, making it easier to use autogenic training anytime they need help in dealing with stress.

Autogenic training sessions commence with the individual settling into a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, to facilitate relaxation. Our psychologists at Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, Bangalore guide the breathing process, incorporating verbal cues to direct attention to specific body parts. Phrases like “My right arm is heavy, I am completely calm” induce sensations of heaviness and warmth, fostering deep relaxation. The session unfolds with attention shifting to heartbeat, breath, and other bodily sensations, reinforcing the calming affirmation. The therapist concludes the session with cues like “Arms firm—Breathe deeply—Open eyes”, emphasizing a gradual return to an alert state. As trainees progress through six established lessons, they gain the confidence to conduct autogenic training for enhanced stress management independently.
