This one hour long guided progressive relaxation technique meditation uses deep delta waves brain entrainment to completely relax and heal your mind and your autonomic nervous system. (Listen at a low comfortable level using headphones) You've probably heard of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) even if you're not sure how to go about it. After all, it does have a long history. An American doctor named Edmund Jacobson published his first book about the concept in 1929 after noticing that physical relaxation helped his patients to feel calmer. Since then, advocates of PMR have been using the technique to enjoy a wide range of physical and mental health benefits. If you'd like to try a simple, safe, and natural relaxation method, PMR may be for you. Benefits of PMR: 1. Relieve stress. Anxiety and stress can make your muscles stiffen, and that can leave you feeling tenser. PMR helps to reverse the cycle because your mind calms down when your body loosens up. 2. Treat insomnia. PMR can be very effective in helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Plus, unlike many medications, it has no harmful side effects. 3. Manage chronic pain. PMR has had some success with various conditions, especially with relieving chronic pain. Other uses include lowering blood pressure and enhancing digestion. 4. Connect with your body. One of the main advantages of PMR is that it helps you to listen to your body. That means you can notice symptoms faster and respond more quickly. Important links for self-discovery and meditation:
