What is Sophrology?
The word Sophrology is rather a mouthful! It comes from Greek roots and means “the study of consciousness in harmony”. At the crossroads between Eastern and Western methods, Sophrology draws on autogenic training and other relaxation methods, yoga, Buddhist meditation and Japanese Zen. Its tools and methods have been inspired by these practices which have been reframed in a very modern and original way.
