If your mind won’t slow down.
If staying focused feels hard.
If worries keep you awake at night.
If you feel less patient even with the people you love.
If you’ve been more irritable than you’d like to be.
And you want inner peace and a more present life…
you’re in the right place.
What it is (video)
How it works
The Praezens Method was developed by psychologist Sandro Neves over 30 years of clinical practice, grounded in the most up-to-date findings in neuroscience and in the knowledge preserved by established contemplative traditions. Its purpose is to recalibrate the mind’s basic operating pattern—reducing excessive thinking and helping you live naturally in the present, with greater inner quiet, clarity, and stability.
It is a 12-week program, with one 60-minute online session per week and 20 minutes of guided daily practice. Each weekly session combines Theory + Practice, promoting attention, emotional regulation, awareness, and sensory presence.

What is new
Welcome to the Praezens Method for living in the present.
Unlike what you often find online, Praezens is not designed to build a “practice habit.” Many ancient traditions warn that when practice becomes a habit, a subtle confusion can happen—the vehicle (the practice) becomes the destination. People end up “doing exercises” without truly stabilizing presence in everyday life.
Praezens follows a different logic: a carefully designed rotation of practices, selected to engage different brain functions with the right dosage across specific program blocks. To determine the practice for each day, we use seven objective criteria.
By the end of the program, the goal is that you no longer depend on the practices to be present. The purpose is to consolidate an inner state—living in the present naturally, steadily, and functionally—supported throughout by the TameYourMind app.
About me
Hello, my name is Sandro. I am 53 years old, married, and a father of two.
My training in psychology follows a slightly different path from the traditional one. Although I have been a Christian since childhood, I have always had a genuine interest in understanding other paths of wisdom as well. After all, even before universities existed, it was spiritual and philosophical traditions that preserved and transmitted much of the accumulated knowledge about human beings—especially about the mind.
Over time, many of these teachings have been investigated and confirmed by modern neuroscience resources. A striking example is the expansion of mindfulness, which has brought about a true revolution in contemporary psychology.
After more than a decade studying with yogis, monks, lamas, and masters from different traditions, I enrolled at UFRJ, one of the best universities in Brazil, to study psychology. After graduating, I deepened my scientific foundation with a postgraduate degree in Neuroscience, also from UFRJ.
Today, with 30 years of clinical experience in individual and group sessions, I offer you a method that I first applied to myself and then shared with my family, friends, students, clients, and patients. Through online classes, I have already reached over 200,000 people.
My motivation is simple: to serve you and the community with the best work I have been able to build so far — and to guide you, with clarity, security, and humanity, on this path of transformation.
