Progressive Muscle Relaxation Technique

Written By Elizabeth Harris

In this episode, Tara De Leon walks us through a progressive muscle relaxation drill. Progressive muscle relaxation [PMR] is a relaxation technique of stress management. If you have never tried this technique before, it is great to have this in your stress relief toolbox. 

You can do this anytime you are feeling tense, such as at the end of the day, or even when you are stuck in traffic.  This technique is all about visualizing Chi, or energy. 

Save this episode for whenever you are feeling stressed and be sure to share it with your family and friends this holiday season!
