Autogenic training consists of repeated sets of visualizations, focusing on training the mind to promote relaxation and desensitization. This approach equips patients to deal with chronic conditions, with many clinical applications, including anxiety disorders, recurring pain, and stress, among others. With a mind-over-body emphasis, this training aims to help patients gain control over their symptoms and improve coping to reduce suffering. This second edition presents practitioners with a concise exploration of autogenic technique and its clinical use for patients, especially in treating those suffering from chronic pain syndrome.
