Relaxation is a natural medicine with far-reaching health benefits
Relaxation is a natural medicine with far-reaching health benefits. It restores your mental balance and allows your body to repair and replenish itself, strengthens your immune function, improves your self-worth and confidence and increases your sense of having control of your life. Being able to relax is essential for maintaining your health and well-being, but the constant pressures and technology over-whelm of 21st Century life can make it hard to relax – it’s as if we forget how to.
Overcome common blocks to relaxation
Protect Your Body From Daily Stress shows that relaxation is a process that involves the whole of you. It looks at the most common blocks to relaxation and how to overcome them. You’ll learn the role your autonomic nervous system plays in relaxation and how your thoughts and feelings either assist or inhibit relaxation. You’ll discover how the body becomes habituated to the ‘stress state’ and learn simple ways to break old habits that have been preventing you from being able to relax fully.
Feel more relaxed in your everyday life
