Relax with Progressive Muscle Relaxation (with music)

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Progressive muscle relaxation, or PMR, is an exercise that involves gently tightening and then releasing a muscle or muscle group. Actively increasing tension and then allowing the tension to release can help muscles relax. This type of exercise is done by relaxing one muscle group at a time, and progressing through each area of the body until all the muscles are relaxed. This is why it is a progressive muscle relaxation. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit <a href= "https://relaxation-audio.com">https://relaxation-audio.com</a> for more peaceful relaxation scripts for sleep, stress relief, and health.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Music credit:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Healing by Kevin MacLeod<br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3860-healing<br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fresh Air by Kevin MacLeod<br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3776-fresh-air<br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember the following safety considerations for any relaxation exercise.</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">None of the movements should cause pain or discomfort.</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Do each exercise gently, only tightening an area until you feel tension (not pain) in the muscle.</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Avoid any movements that would be risky for you. For example, if you have an injury, avoid tensing the muscles in that area. Just think about relaxing the area without tensing it first.</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span
