PMR (progressive muscle relaxation) is an exercise that reduces stress and anxiety in your body by having you slowly tense and then relax each muscle! ๐ต
Here is a quick exercise:
Sit back or lie down in a comfortable position. For each area of the body listed below, you will tense your muscles tightly, but not to the point of strain. Hold the tension for 10 seconds, and pay close attention to how it feels. Then, release the tension, and notice how the feeling of relaxation differs from the feeling of tension.
๐ง๐ผ Feet: Curl your toes tightly into your feet, then release them.
๐ง๐ผ Calves: Point or flex your feet, then let them relax.
๐ง๐ผ Thighs: Squeeze your thighs together tightly, then let them relax.
๐ง๐ผ Torso: Suck in your abdomen, then release the tension and let it fall.
๐ง๐ผ Back: Squeeze your shoulder blades together, then release them.
๐ง๐ผ Shoulders: Lift and squeeze your shoulders toward your ears, then let them drop.
๐ง๐ผ Arms: Make fists and squeeze them toward your shoulders, then let them drop.
๐ง๐ผ Hands: Make a fist by curling your fingers into your palm, then relax your fingers.
๐ง๐ผ Face: Scrunch your facial features to the center of your face, then relax.
๐ง๐ผ Full Body: Squeeze all muscles together, then release all tension.
