Dominique Antiglio Featured in Your Healthy Living: The Art of Better Sleep
BeSophro and its founder Dominique Antiglio are featured in Your Healthy Living, the UK’s No.1 free in-store natural health magazine, in a comprehensive editorial titled The Art of Better Sleep.
The feature explores expert-led approaches to improving sleep quality, covering everything from light exposure and nutrition to nervous system regulation. Within this wider context, Dominique shares insight into how Sophrology supports healthy sleep habits through mind-body awareness and practical techniques that can be integrated into everyday life.
Sophrology and sleep regulation
In the article, Dominique explains that difficulty falling asleep is something many people experience, particularly when the harder we try to sleep, the more elusive it becomes. She outlines how Sophrology works with the mind-body connection to strengthen nervous system resilience and create the right internal conditions for sleep to arise naturally.
The feature highlights how Sophrology combines gentle movement, breathing, visualisation and body awareness to help individuals reconnect with themselves. By becoming more aware of physical sensations, thoughts and emotional patterns, it becomes easier to identify stress early and release tension before it builds.
Dominique also introduces a simple “tension–relax” technique that can be practised anywhere. This accessible exercise helps the body transition from activation to calm by consciously engaging and releasing muscle groups, reinforcing the body’s natural capacity to settle.
The article reinforces that sleep is not something to force, but something to allow, a shift that begins with supporting the nervous system rather than fighting it.
Sleep starts before bedtime. The feature underlines that healthy sleep habits are built through small, consistent actions that regulate stress throughout the day.
The nervous system needs signals of safety. Techniques such as conscious breathing and gentle muscle release help shift the body from alert mode into recovery mode.
Awareness prevents accumulation. Recognising stress early and releasing it prevents the tension that often disrupts sleep later in the evening.
Simple practices are powerful. Even short, accessible exercises can meaningfully improve sleep quality when integrated regularly
