There are many types of relaxation, including breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, visualisation, meditation, mindfulness, and gentle physical activities such as yoga and Tai Chi. Learning to relax can take a bit of practise but the more you practise the more helpful the relaxation technique will be. Click here for downloadable files to help get you started on your journey to relaxation.
