Autogenic Training (AT) is a well-recognized psychological technique designed to alleviate stress and enhance both mental and physical well-being and concentration. Originally developed by German psychiatrist Johannes Heinrich Schultz, AT is one of the oldest and most renowned methods for achieving profound relaxation.
This course specifically focuses on a contemporary variant of AT known as Autogenic Training without autosuggestion (AAT). AAT represents an evolution, synthesis, and enhancement of classical AT techniques. No prior AT training is required for participation in this course, and we will explore the integration of AAT with other practices such as mindfulness and visualization.
AAT involves a curated set of mental exercises aimed at helping individuals release excess psychological and physiological tension. This is achieved by inducing beneficial changes in brain waves and balancing the Autonomous Nervous System. The primary objective of the training is to empower participants to independently practice this relaxation technique. Post-course, AAT can be applied as needed, and regular exercise is not obligatory, requiring only a minimal time commitment.
By the course’s conclusion, participants will gain the ability to perform AAT exercises in just a few minutes, adaptable to various situations—before significant events, public presentations, during stress-inducing situations, in the workplace, or before bedtime to improve sleep.

Testimonials
Autogenic training – simple and effective.
At the end of a two-month program of autogenic training without autosuggestion, I was first impressed by the results achieved by this method and amazed by the simplicity of the method itself. I am finishing a program equipped with techniques that I will certainly use in the future.
Autogenic training on a daily basis brings me a quick, but deep relaxation, after which I feel completely energized to continue with my daily tasks, enthusiastically and less tired. In moments of emotional upset, it helped me find peace by not escaping from my feelings, but only balancing the processes in the body. Things, in reality, don’t get less complicated, but it’s getting easier to deal with them. In the long run, I see autogenic training as a method that has helped me balance my anxiety and not be overwhelmed by fears in stressful moments.
Discovering of new interests and hobbies, as well as getting rid of bad habits are just some of the side effects of autogenic training that have enriched my life.
Finding twice for ten minutes just for myself during the day remains the biggest challenge for me. But it’s definitely something worth working on.
It was a pleasure to participate in this program, as part of a group where we exchanged experiences to encourage each other in achieving goals.
I am very grateful to the expert team, to Dragan Marković and Tanja Mitrović who shared their knowledge, experience, support and were open to all questions and concerns.
