Progressive Muscle Relaxation for the Management of Anxiety & Stress (finally back up & reuploaded!)

This is a 'progressive muscle relaxation'. Progressive muscle relaxation (a.k.a. PMR) is an effective relaxation technique that has been scientifically researched by the medically community and is extremely effective in the management of anxiety, stress, tension and insomnia. It involves tensing and relaxing all the muscles of the body progressively from head to toe to help induce a deep state of relaxation. When you experience deep physical relaxation, your mind automatically becomes more relaxed.
The original video (2015) unfortunately was deleted during the demonetization and I was not able to get it back. Fortunately I had the script saved and was able to re-record it and reupload it for you again. I hope you find this helpful!

The original video (2015) unfortunately was deleted during the demonetization and I was not able to get it back. Fortunately I had the script saved and was able to re-record it and reupload it for you again. I hope those of you who enjoy my PMR videos, find this helpful!

[@carliejanetabone]

Awsome Joanne🥰 Big hugs too you beautiful friend and thank you so much I love this!❤❤🙏

[@janetweeks5]

I still have and frequently play the original version. I love them both, the original and this new re-recording, which has a few changes and improvements, I noticed. Sometimes, it's hard to scroll through and find favorites from the vast number of videos you've made, Joanne, so I made a folder and put all my favorites there, for easier access, including the original version of this pmr video.

[@colinleat8309]

Thank you. With so much negativeity in the world, it's nice to relax, unwind, and fall into a safe, peaceful sleep. I confess I have to listen more than once, because you sooth me to sleep. Thank you Joanne 💕

[@eivindtv7522]

Thanks a lot for bringing this one back, had been using it for many years :)

Joanne, this gave me some blessed moments of relaxation from my generalized anxiety. I’m very thankful. It’s these small moments we can all cherish. I love you all, keep going please and take care.

[@amyp.9880]

Your voice is SO calm and soothing.. Struggling with heightened anxiety lately and knew it was time to get more into relaxation techniques. This is the video I've been doing each night before bed for the last few nights. it is really helping. Thank you SO much for sharing this with the world.

So currently in a bout of stress sickness as a mental health prof called it (all day nausea from being too stressed for too long) and so I’m starting daily meditations to start to get out of it. This. Is. The shit. The instructions are so specific I wish all practices were like this

[@ameliaaskey6374]

Wow this really helped me with anxiety and panic. Thank you

Dear Joanne, was your passive muscle relaxation video also deleted? Do you think you will be able to recreate it (or something similar), or is it available anywhere else? I hope I’m not rude for asking. I’m sure you have lots of creative work to do, and I appreciate it all, but the passive relaxation video was a long time favourite of mine, which is why I wanted to humbly request it if you ever have the time ♥️ I’m so sorry the whole deleting of videos happened to you to begin with, what a blow to a wonderful content creator. Thank you for your continued work in bringing moments of peace to so many people! Wishing you and your channel all the best going forward!

[@relaxforawhile]

hello there :). yes I will definitely work on getting the passive muscle relaxation up very soon too!! thanks!!

[@janetweeks5]

That was a favorite of mine, too. Joanne's PMR videos are the best!

[@ladymoonlake]

I came here to try to find the passive pmr recording, also. Some of us do not want or need to deliberately create tension in our muscles to move into relaxation. I hope you will recreate the passive pmr soon. It's hard to find a recording of this kind of exercise by someone with a relaxing voice like yours. Actually, it's not just hard...it's been impossible to find!

[@thavamaniramasamy7501]

Thank you so much. Helping me a lot. May God Bless you ❤️

[@relaxforawhile]

You're so welcome!

Will you ever make this one available for download? I really like it.

Hello, you really are a blessing , thank you for all the work you do. Can i make a request? to make this exact PMR but with no background music. hope this message finds you. 🙏

[@relaxforawhile]

Noted! I will see if I can do this for you. However, I will not be able to use the same thumbnail. KZbin may flag this as "reused content". I will try :)

[@scarlet132011]

@@relaxforawhile cant wait! thank you for replying and even considering the request. 🙏

[@therickroomstudio]

The ad at the end jolted me back awake. Video was great until then.

[@relaxforawhile]

I don’t have ads playing at the end. It’s good to make sure you have turned off “auto-play” on your KZbin player otherwise the default setting will start the next video automatically and if the video is monetized then you’ll get a loud af beginning to play.

[@paula3406]

Happy Thanksgiving

[@christophercruz8359]

Background music in these videos has been a distraction, but I'm beginning to become acclimated to it.

[@jennychenni]

This was the one I missed!! But is this a different background music? Thanks Joanne!

[@relaxforawhile]

thanks for your comment. the music is the same 🥰

Disillusionment is not a bad thing as, if your illusions are shattered, it means you are getting closer to reality.
