Lesson 3

Progressive Muscle Relaxation

In this third session of the Relaxation on Demand audio course, you will learn about progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), a relaxation technique that involves tensing and then relaxing different muscle groups in your body. PMR is a simple and effective way to relieve stress and tension, and it can be practiced anywhere and at any time. It is also the basis of the Relax on Demand training. You can practice this right after the Autogenic Training if relaxing is difficult.

Very interesting. I think it will take practice and I tend to forget the sequence, but a simple and practical tool for relaxing. I like that the course is short and to the point. Uncomplicated. Look forward to applying the tool and seeing how it works in day to day settings.
