DEEP-MUSCLE-RELAXATION....

RELAX- 'Anytime-Anywhere."


When we are stressed we feel tension in our muscles. If we learn to relax our body, we are better prepared to handle stressful situations.

With 'Deep-Muscle-Relaxation' you can relax your entire body.

The most important point to remember is to ‘Slow-Down' and 'focus' on the process and 'be in the present moment' while you are tensing and relaxing various muscle groups.

The process is very simple. Once you are trained you can create your own plan.
-      You can do one round.
-      You can do multiple rounds.
-      You can make a short plan by including only large muscles.
-      You can make an extensive plan by including large and small muscles.
-      You can fix a time and do it on regular basis.
-      You can do it whenever and wherever you feel stressed.

Step by Step Process-


-     First, sit down or lie down and close your eyes. (You can do it without closing your eyes).
-     Breathe slowly and deeply. Focus you mind on your breathing as you inhale and exhale. Do it at  least for 10 seconds.
-     Follow the order as mentioned in the chart or follow the reverse order.
-     Tense/tighten (not strain) your muscles as you inhale, hold for 5 seconds and relax as you exhale.
-     Take 10 seconds deep breathing break as you move on from one muscle group to the next.
-     After you finish the process, let your body go loose.
-     Experience the complete body and mind relaxation. Stay in this state for 10 seconds.

-   You will find yourself revived and refreshed and ready to take the new challenges.

Note: If you have any medical issue please do consult your doctor before you start practicing ‘Deep-Muscle- Relaxation.’
