Client living with chronic pain

“In just a few weeks, Audrey gave me invaluable tools to manage my chronic pain, reduce anxiety, and sleep better. I felt safe, heard, and for the first time in a long time, in control of my pain. Her calm, supportive approach helped me start rebuilding my resilience.”

Client living with chronic fatigue

“I’ve learned the power of stopping and caring for myself, something I’d never prioritised before. Over 12 weeks, I’ve become more aware, more in control, and better able to manage stress and fatigue. Audrey’s flexible and practical approach made a real difference. I feel stronger, calmer, and more connected to myself.”

What is sophrology?

Sophrology is a structured mind-body practice combining gentle movements, breath work, relaxation and guided visualisation.

Through regular practice, you develop greater awareness of your body and learn practical ways to respond to stress, fatigue, pain and other challenges. As you develop your own skills and confidence, you can feel more able to navigate difficult moments, regain a sense of control and approach everyday life with greater ease and optimism.

The exercises are simple, adaptable and designed to be used in everyday life, not just during a session.

Why work with me?

Audrey Zannese smiling at her desk with a green plant- Sophrology practitioner in Leeds

I bring together three things in my work:

Lived experience

I've lived with Multiple Sclerosis for more than twenty years and understand what it means when your health changes the way you experience everyday life.

Scientific training

I have a PhD in Biological Sciences and initially approached Sophrology with a healthy dose of scepticism.

Experience & expertise

I've worked with people living with a wide range of long-term health conditions, as well as professionals experiencing stress, overwhelm and burnout.

My strength is meeting people where they’re at. I teach practical skills they can use for the rest of their lives. The aim is to help you live your life the way you want, rather than be limited by your condition.
