Your sophrologist and wellness coach

The notion of conscience or unconscience as well as the link between body and mind are for me a constant source of curiosity and study: what internal energy pushes us to succeed one day and fail the next? Could it be that our thoughts directly affect our actions?

My research, encounters, and experiences, including now in Asia, made me realise that we are to a large extent responsible for these thoughts and their effects on our health, both physical and mental. When faced with this challenge, nature, and in particular forests, have always been a source of comfort for me, by turns confidants, accomplices, or protectors. Which one of us doesn’t have the picture of a tree or landscape anchored in their memory, as a serene and soothing place where it feels comforting to escape mentally to overcome stress or difficulty? After many meditative journeys at the heart of temperate and tropical forests in search of wisdom and balance, I have understood that nature, associated with good practices, is the ideal place to find answers for the ills of our society, let go, reconnect with our essential needs, and give up appearances for the truth. It is today as a sophrologist, coach, author and lecturer that I propose to accompany you towards a life balance that suits you.

Recover Your Balance In Nature In 50 Exercises

€ 19.90 With this new book, published in 2021, Alain Lancelot offers a practical method against stress to reconnect with oneself and with nature. "This new book is the result of many meditative walks at the heart of temperate and tropical forests that have helped me keep a good balance in my life and rebuild myself after my burn-out. Learning about ancestral Asian practices at the root of many of the wellness techniques used in the West today, it has become clear to me that we are to a large extent responsible for our own health, and that nature is the most suitable place to let go, reconnect with our basic needs, and learn to manage the stress stemming from our society. My reconnection paths are organised in six, progressive and complementary stages, allowing you to transform your forest walks into paths of balance. To do this, I suggest you enrich your walking with 50 exercises inspired by sophrology, Qi Gong, meditation, and coaching, which you will be able to practice throughout the seasons and at your own pace." A practical method, coming at the right time after the recent public health crisis, to regain a balance in life and learn to reconnect with oneself as much as with nature.

MY BOOKS (in French)

Wellness tips

5 minutes of anger or frustration build up cortisol to the point that it becomes poisonous. To release this poison from our body, our brain mobilises its immune defences: this process can take up to 5 hours, during which you are not protected against other external aggressions. You remain thus on your nerves, getting angry with everyone, for anything: that again will trigger the production of cortisol, and feed the process for 5 more hours. In addition, cortisol, on its way to the brain, kills the cells in the hippocampus that are responsible for calming us down. It also stores fat! You are thus, in all respects, entering a dangerous downward spiral. The solution is simple: Stop everything, let go, place yourself in a state of relaxation and mindfulness with sophrology, meditation, Qi Gong, Tai Chi, yoga or any other method that suits you. For example, it is now proven that meditation produces higher levels of DHEAS, the anti-aging hormone that naturally counteracts the harmful effects of cortisol. So... What are you waiting for?
