While the ability to relax can help prevent insomnia, headaches and muscle tension, many people tell me they have difficulty relaxing on there own. So, the next few blogs will be to help those people do just that-relax.
Relaxation Task 1
- Lie on your back on a firm but comfortable surface. Your arms should be at your side and away from your body a little in a comfortable position.
- Next, tense both feet by pulling down the toes as if you were going to touch them to the bottom of the feet.
- Hold this position for about five seconds. Pay close attention to how this makes your feet feel.
- Now, relax and let your feet go back to normal. Pay close attention to how the feeling in your feet changes.
- Repeat these steps up to five times paying close attention to the different feeling between you flexing and tensing your feet and relaxing the m.
- Do this first task once a day for three days. Then, move on to Task 2.
