Autogenic Training
Autogenic Training (AT) teaches the patient in a structured and ordered way to harness the skills of mind and body and control the stress responses.
The course is a series of relaxation and exercises that show the user how to modify and maybe turn off the anxiety "fight and flight" response.
It was first formulated in the 1930s and some regard it as a form of self hypnosis.
