Progressived Muscle Relaxation

Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) is a technique where you systematically tense and then relax different muscle groups in your body. The process helps you become more aware of physical sensations associated with tension and relaxation, reducing stress and anxiety. By focusing on these sensations, PMR promotes deeper relaxation and a sense of calm. It’s often used for stress management, improving sleep, and alleviating tension-related discomfort. Typically, you start from your feet and work upward or vice versa, making this practice accessible and effective for achieving a relaxed, peaceful state.
