AutoGenic Training

                 AutoGenic Training

Duties and Responsibilities: Autogenic training is a relaxation technique developed by the German psychiatrist Johannes Heinrich Schultz and first published in 1932. The technique involves the daily practice of sessions that last around 15 minutes, usually in the morning, at lunch time, and in the evening. During each session, the practitioner will repeat a set of visualizations that induce a state of relaxation. The technique can be used to alleviate many stress-induced psychosomatic disorders.

Salary: About an average of $105,000.

Education: Each exercise is practiced several times under the supervision of a trained therapist, until the subject is able to shift voluntarily from a high arousal state to a wakeful low arousal state. Another important, but more advanced type of autogenic training which can be practiced after the standard exercises have been learned, is meditative training. A substantial advance on autogenic training, this begins with passive concentration on a number of visual phenomena and proceeds through a series of personal interrogatory exercises which lead to deep personal insights.

I would not like to be a Autogenic Trainer because I would not have enough time for the classes and I would probably be tired.
