Sophrologie is a relaxation technique created in 1960 by neuropsychiatrist Alfonso Cayédo. It combines breathing exercises, dynamic relaxation and positive visualisation to harmonise body and mind. Simple, evidence-based and accessible to everyone.
Sophrologie is built on four principles: phenomenological reduction (setting aside preconceptions), objective reality (experiencing the body as it is), positive action (reinforcing what feels good), and progression (one step at a time).
Unlike seated meditation, sophrologie includes dynamic relaxation: gentle movements, vibrations and swaying that release muscular tension before the deep relaxation phase.
Recognised by French hospitals, sophrologie is used in birth preparation, oncology and gerontology. Complement with our breathing exercises and beginner meditations.
Lila is Nala's sophrologist voice. Warm, luminous and precise, she guides each exercise with care and kindness. Her sessions follow the classic sophronique structure:
1. Basic sophronisation — Induction of the sophroliminal state, the threshold between waking and sleep.
2. Dynamic relaxation — Conscious movements linked to breathing to release tension.
3. Positive visualisation — Reinforcing resources, projecting a serene future.
4. Desophronisation — Gradual and tonic return to the ordinary state.
