What does AFT mean in NASA

Autogenic Feedback Training (AFT) is a type of biofeedback that uses sound to interact with the autonomic nervous system in order to facilitate relaxation and decrease stress.

Anyone can benefit from AFT, particularly those who experience chronic stress or have difficulty managing their overall health.

During an AFT session, a person listens through headphones to tones generated by highly specialized equipment. These sounds are designed to help the person relax and focus their attention on the interface between the mind and body. By doing this, individuals are able to develop an awareness of how different states of stress affect them physiologically, psychologically, and emotionally.

Potential benefits include improved sleep, enhanced moods, reduced tension, increased energy levels, better concentration, and an improved sense of wellbeing. Additionally, people may experience fewer physical symptoms related to stress such as headaches, back pain, and fatigue.

Results vary depending on individual needs and goals; however, most people will begin seeing results after 3-5 sessions depending on their level of commitment. Some may require additional sessions for added support or guidance.
