💆 Dissolve tension in your body and mind with PMR — Progressive Muscle Relaxation meditation. This relaxation technique involves systematically tensing and relaxing your muscles, starting from your feet and working up to your head.
This meditation includes centering belly breathwork (diaphragmatic breath) before leading into the progressive muscle relaxation visualization with a color visualization. Studies have shown that PMR helps with sleep-related distress while reducing symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression. Return to this practice anytime in the morning, as a midday reset, or right before bed.
Note: If you have any physical injuries, soreness, or conditions where you should avoid tensing your muscles, focus on relaxing those areas instead. Ask your doctor if you have any concerns about PMR.
