Caycedien Sophrology is the authentic form of sophrology as created and developed by its founder professor Alphonso Caycedo, medical doctor and psychiatrist.

Caycedien Sophrology is a method of body/mind training which helps to develop serenity and well-being through a process of getting in touch with yourself by creating greater inner awareness in day to day living.

This leads to self-confidence and development of a sense of your own identity. What happens is a letting-go of the past, a future seen with its potential activated and a present lived more fully.

Regular practice re-establishes balance and harmony by giving positivity its rightful place. Without, however, ignoring what upsets you, Caycedien Sophrology awakens your dormant potential and aims to be a transforming process. Its different techniques allow you to discover, integrate and master your own capacities.
