Cultivating a Calm Mind 30 Day Mindfulness ChallengeDAY 16 – PROGRESSIVE MUSCLE RELAXATION We go about our day holding tension in our bodies without realising it. If I told you right now to drop your shoulders and create a space between the top and bottom rows of your teeth, you would more than likely be able to do both, not realising you were holding your shoulders up or clenching your jaw. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) involves tensing then relaxing a group of muscles. This has the following benefits: It reminds your body of the difference between feeling tense and feeling relaxed. It helps release physical and mental tension that may otherwise interfere with sleep. It reduces pain caused by muscle tension. Did you notice the difference in the level of relaxation in your body before and after doing this exercise? Watch me demonstrate Progressive Muscle Relaxation on my YouTube channel.
