Due to the stressful lifestyle that prevails in our society, getting to relax often becomes an impossible mission. Relaxation is much more than a pleasant psychological state that we can experience from time to time without even thinking about it. Relaxation brings us several benefits that go beyond the subjective feeling of well-being and pleasure. 😌

Relaxation should be considered our natural state that fundamentally gives us a deep rest, at the same time that it helps us balance metabolism, heart rate and respiration. In this way, knowing what relaxation is and how to relax also frees us from possible tensions, whether muscular or psychological, that accumulate over time. 😱

There are several beneficial aspects for physical and mental health that relaxation brings us:

✅ Helps focus: Relaxation has been proven to be a kind of “clean slate” when it comes to our ability to focus on a task.

✅ It helps us to disconnect from useless worries: we clarify better than to think and not to think.

✅ Helps prevent premature aging: excess anxiety accelerates the wear and tear of body tissues.

If we are relaxed we achieve a high state of sensitivity and natural receptivity, which leads to greater attention from each of the cells of our body. Thus, the energy expenditure is minimal and has a positive impact on our general state, especially on the psychological. 🧠

If relaxation techniques are performed correctly, the effects will be immediate from the first session, although at first you may notice that your body reacts very differently to calm (you want to go to the bathroom, you remember pending tasks, startles, etc.). 👱‍♂️

The physical and emotional benefits will begin to be apparent after you have been practicing relaxation regularly for several weeks. It is convenient to do it daily to get better benefits and permanent effects. 🌹

After a while practicing relaxation techniques it will become a simple task that we will be able to do in a few moments. There will come a time when the state of calm will be an intrinsic part of us and even by sitting or breathing consciously we will achieve total relaxation. 🌬

Take relaxation very seriously and start practicing it if you want to improve your mental health. 💪
