Why Does Relaxation Help Us?

We all think we know how to relax. But chilling out in front of the TV or computer isn't true relaxation. (Depending on what you're watching or doing, it could even make you more tense.) What the body really needs is daily practice of a relaxation technique — like deep breathing or yoga — that has a physical effect on the mind. For example, deep breathing helps to relax a major nerve that runs from the diaphragm to the brain, sending a message to the entire body to let go and loosen up. (KidsHealth, 2020)
