Mindfulness For Relaxation And Tension Release

A guided mindfulness practice for relaxation and tension release that teaches you how to quickly let go of physical, mental, and emotional tension and relax through the conscious release of facial muscular tension and expanding this relaxation to the entire body. In this practice, you will learn how to relax the various areas of your face by releasing the accumulated tension in each and every facial muscle, and then expand this level of relaxation to your whole body. By remembering what our face and body feel like when we are completely relaxed and free of tension and stress, we can anchor the relaxation response in our whole body and also quickly come back to it when we've become stressed, anxious, or tense.
