Sophrology is a structured method created to produce optimal health and well-being. It consists of a series of easy-to-do physical and mental exercises that, when practiced regularly, lead to a healthy, relaxed body and a calm, alert mind.
Step 1
Stand tall, close your eyes, allow your arms to fall by your sides.
Step 2
Mentally locate where in the body you feel the stress, anxiety or tension, and clench your fists.
Step 3
Exhale through your mouth, take a deep breath in through your nose, and hold the breath.
Step 4
Now ‘pump’ both your shoulders up and down until you need to breathe out – this pumping action helps to oxygenate the brain.
Step 5
As you exhale, allow your clenched fists to relax, visualising all your tension and anxiety draining out through your fingertips.
Step 6
Repeat the process for as long as you need to release any lingering agitation.
