Make up your mind

After using it, the best way to understand selfRelax's breakthrough is to take a look at all other
relaxation products and services available on the market (tapes, CDs, software, biofeedback
devices, websites...). When reviewing any of them, ask yourself the 2 following questions:

  • Is it really personalized?

    Does it take account of...

    Can you control the
    pace of a session?
    in the "pace control" mode, you can put the session
    on hold to deepen or explore your inner sensations
    and mental images


  • Is it really simple and convenient?

    - Do you need a manual to understand how it works?

    - Can you get a truly personalized session immediately in less than 5 clicks?

    - During a session, are you actually guided "step-by-step" into relaxation by personalized,
    --detailed and specific instructions? (as opposed to biofeedback devices that only tell you
    --how stressed or relaxed you are – in case you don't know it yourself – with, at best, a
    --limited choice of prerecorded, non-personalized exercises)

    - Is it available on demand, anytime, anywhere?
