The Temple of Relaxation

+ + +
+

Introduction

+

Practicing relaxation is paramount to managing stress. When we relax, the flow of blood increases around our body + giving us more energy. + It helps us to have a calmer and clearer mind which aids positive thinking, concentration, memory and decision + making. + Relaxation slows our heart rate, reduces our blood pressure and relieves tension. + It also aids digestion as we absorb essential nutrients more efficiently when relaxed, which helps to fight off + disease and infection. + There are many relaxation techniques, here we will explain the ones that you can do in a few minutes anywhere. +

+
+
+

Visualisation Exercise

+

This exercise involves using an image as a way to focus the mind. Create in your mind an ideal spot to relax. + It can be: +

+ + + Imagine it in as much detail as you can use your senses to make it + as real as possible and see yourself comfortably enjoying this place. + + Now close your eyes and take a slow, regular breath in through your nose. Become aware of your breathing. Focus on + your relaxation place in all its detail and breathe out through your mouth. + Do this exercise for 10 to 20 minutes.

+
+
+

Muscle Relaxation

+

This exercise will teach you to recognise and reduce muscle tension. You can relieve tension in any part of your + body just by tensing and relaxing each muscle in turn. Sitting in a comfortable chair:

+
    1 Close your eyes and concentrate on your breathing. Slowly breath in through your nose and out through your + mouth.
+
    2 Make a fist, squeezing your hand tightly.
+
    3 Hold this for a few seconds, noticing the tension.
+
    4 Slowly open your fingers and feel the difference notice the tension leaving. Your hand is much lighter and + relaxed. Enjoy this feeling.
+

If you have any physical injuries or conditions that may cause muscle pain, don't tense the muscle in that area. +

+
+
+

Breathing to Relax

+

Breathing too quickly, and deeply, can make you feel dizzy, faint or even more anxious. + Taking slow, regular breaths can help you to control anxious thoughts and feelings, and make you feel calmer. + To control your breathing:

+
    1 Place one hand on your chest and the other over your stomach. You want your stomach to move more than your + chest as you breathe.
+
    2 Take a slow, regular breath in (through your nose if you can). Watch your hands as you breathe in. The hand on + your stomach should move and your chest should not.
+
    3 Breathe out slowly through pursed lips.
+
    4 Repeat this 10 times, twice a day.
+

It might take time to master this technique. Once you have, you won't need to watch your hands or put them on + your stomach.
