We designed this video to help learn the skill of "progressive muscle relaxation." This is a skill that builds awareness of muscle tension in your body and (with daily practice) allows you to release that tension when you want to. The video takes about 15 minutes to complete. The movements for the exercise are shown by the blue figure, to help you know how to tense and relate the different muscle groups.

  • First, when my doctor told me to do this exercise! I said ok and did ;but it didn't work, I said it's ridiculous and and wasting time! The next day I did again it worked unbelievable! Now I do everyday and it work like miracle. I'm thankful from the person who created this and my doctor who suggested me! I suggest to everyone to experience this exercise, best wishes Bakhshi.

    Thank you so much for you posting your PMR onto YouTube for all those who benefit from progressive muscle relaxation , whatever the cause be it illness or chronic condition or simply, 15 minutes a day to observe the almost natural tightness that we carry in every corner of our body without knowing it. Your video is wonderful; it is also a great length, not too long or short and most important, it is very effective and I have tried many PMR videos - I simply wanted to say thank you so much for making a little bit of difference in my daily routine !
