10-Minute Guided Paired Muscle Relaxation

In this special episode of Spill Your Guts, Dr. Jenn Staples, Clinical Psychologist and President of guts nonprofit, guides you through a 10-minute paired muscle relaxation exercise. Together, you’ll practice gently tensing and releasing each muscle group — from your feet all the way up to your face — while using your breath to activate your body’s parasympathetic “rest and digest” system. This calming practice can help reduce stress, ground you in the present moment, and strengthen your ability to relax when you need it most. Music Credits: Nathan Byrne with Reel Byrne Media; Pixabay Piano Music No. 10, RelaxingTimeTo support guts’ work, visit our ⁠⁠⁠website: www.gutsnonprofit.org Note: The information in this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not medical/therapeutic advice.
