Tense & Release Exercise

"Muscle tension is commonly associated with stress, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms as part of a process that helps the body prepare for potentially dangerous situations." This is why many survivors of trauma find that they are in constant states of tension and sometimes even feel like that don't even know what this whole "relaxed" state of being is. It feels like unfamiliar territory. This progressive muscle relaxation practice is all about helping you to become more aware of where your body holds tension, particularly subtle muscle tension, and how to move into a state of release and relaxation. #beyondsurviving #sexualabusesurvivor #nervoussystemregulation #bodyawareness #grounding #progressivemusclerelaxation #relaxation #bodyconsciousness #selfresourcing #incestsurvivor #healingsexualtrauma #foryou #viral #coachrachelsays #coaching #toolsthatwork #healing Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/beyond-surviving.
