Progressive Muscle Relaxation

[@messynaturedweller]

I have major issues with 24/7 tension and stress, often to the point where it feels like an electric current is in my bones and im vibrating with it. My mental health is real bad. I have done this meditation almost every morning for 1-2 weeks now and it has saved my mornings. I usually wake up in fetal position, tense, grinding my teeth, heart racing. Its gone so far that I fear going to bed because I am terrified of my morning anxiety. This meditation has helped me so much. I've added on to it so I force a yawn with every breath, and relax the tension when the yawn..crests? (English is not my 1st language) and it has helped my body relax so so much. So thank you for making this video. It has meant a lot to me and my recovery♡

I stress a lot to and I’m only 13

@@mileslloyd2196 Whatever you're going through, I believe you can make it. ❤️ It's totally valid and don't believe adults telling you that your problems aren't that bad.

Thank you for sharing❤

That’s amazing, I’ve had a very similar realization recently, my dad and his side of the family have tons of health problems, but recently I’ve realized that a lot of the health problems I’ve got from him just stem from anxiety (which he and his side of the fam has a ton of too, they just don’t acknowledge it). Very glad I’m living in a time that acknowledges and treats the mental side of health more properly 😊

[@TheAuraEngineer]

It’s also making me realize why so many damn health issues have anxiety and/or depression as causes lol

[@nessa.xx09]

Was given this reccomendation by my therapist. Really helpful. Also to all my fellow mates who are maybe having a hard time today. I hope we get through this. I know we will get through it. It will pass. Just the fact that you're here trying to get better means you're already set on the healing journey. I'm proud of u ❤

[@brandie3344]

not sure why there's so much negativity in the comments. this routine is incredibly helpful for my anxiety.

[@hemang8901]

Life is hard enough so having positivity can help a bit.

[@RachaelBarat]

Great video

[@hemang8901]

My psychiatrist recommended PMR for me. It’s been helpful. I feel like with doing this regularly plus reading Dr. Burns’ When Panic Attacks has helped myself to have less panic attacks, especially ones that last for multiple hours! Thank God! 😊❤️🙏

[@mentalhealthandtrauma]

I am working on a Certification for Complex Trauma/Complex PTSD. We just learned about these trauma release exercises. The voice is so soothing and allows you to relax. I did this and was so relaxed I nearly fell off my chair 💜 I am now sharing these with my clients as a way to release tension and trauma from their bodies which will eventually help with dysregulation and mind change and mind control.

[@mattymo56]

As someone with PTSD and was directed to these types of exercises. Her voice is too intense and makes me anxious. She's too quick and not soft speaking enough. Like an order

[@kaylacormier4608]

do you have any other recommendations for KZbin video exercises like this one that would be helpful for trauma survivors?

[@mentalhealthandtrauma]

@@kaylacormier4608 I would recommend Trauma Informed Movements and/or Somatic stretching.

[@cathybennett2415]

​@@mattymo56 - I agree

[@kristinhernandez8946]

I believe stress/anger/anxiety is starting to physically manifest in my body. This was SO helpful. Thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@thomasrae1394]

That was fantastic thank you so much 😊

[@katherinebolwell99]

Thank you so much for this relaxing track: time and time again, it has increased my ability to genuinely relax. I am truly grateful.

[@Valentino016]

I have chronic pain and anxiety and this helped me cope with those !

[@rus1615]

Thanks, it helped me feel better. Will do it everyday.

[@totemworlds]

Thank you for this.

[@infoaddict1717]

One of the best videos ever:)

[@pipszx5]

i keep coming back to this for relief thanks

[@WhatDoIDoNowWorld]

I feel too relaxed after this 😅 very helpful video. Found I was calmer after and more aware of my body and thoughts.

[@Yo-yo-dt5ze]

My therapist just recommended this for me since iam dealing with chronic stress and anxiety I also suffer with panic attacks and have a very high cortisol levels due to stress as well as tension I have tried this and it works for relaxation and will continue to use this as a coping mechanism to help with my chronic issues I also suffer with ptsd and depression so maybe this will help me

[@deborahdaly5850]

Very helpful. Thank you!!!

[@pipszx5]

[@wondrousinquiry]

i REALLY love all the choices we are given in this video. it makes me feel less uncomfortable following along

[@marymorris5237]

Thank you

[@anamei9923]

Thank you.💖🙏🏽

[@feliciakinney1291]

Is it common and good to release grunts and moans when exhaling during this process?

[@landon_roberson]

I would assume so, it is most likely just your body relaxing.

[@mitacestalia7532]

It starts at 2:31

[@Larry-fp8jm]

😮 my therapist told me to listen to this what are my anxiety and when I'm anxious at night trying to sleep

[@kittyschetters7125]

Heerlijk dank je wel ❤

ガチでエグい😊

[@michelepelletier2115]

I like this

[@christopheranthony6706]

You do not start from the feet and go up. This creates a sensation of being choked or drowning. People with trauma should find a PMR exercise that starts with the head.

[@skybirdnomad]

For a pre-sleep relaxation, I think it would be better if it was slower and calmer. Your voice is quite energetic and that kinda hase a waking a person up. But this one isn't for sleep huh? Do you have one that is for sleep?

[@utubeatemyusername]

I can’t with the “if it’s available…” I just can’t. Makes me 😂 too hard

[@mileslloyd2196]

It’s okay you don’t have to that’s always good

[@mattymo56]

You never know if we got an amputee haha

[@zorrozone1]

Damn it!😂

[@bunnyy9932]

I don’t get why that inclusion is funny

[@chorizopanameno3031]

Looooong intro. Just get to it.

[@ENFPerspectives]

Too much talk at the beginning and your voice is not relaxing enough

[@MKP4ever]

Thats not very ENFP from you :D

[@mattymo56]

She is not relaxing at all. She needs to slow down a bit.

[@marcelinefagley6623]

not me skipping through FIVE MINUTES and the intro is still happening 😭 this shit just stressed me out so much. i hate this shit.
