In 1975, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Harvard Medical School published a book called, the Relaxation Response. Dr. Herbert Benson, M.D. with Miriam Z. Klipper put together a simple meditative technique that has helped millions with fatigue, anxiety, and stress.
Dr. Deb Lindh shares an overview of the Relaxation Response, passages that called out to her, as well as the main components of the Relaxation Response technique. Once learned, the Relaxation Response takes only 10 - 20 minutes a day and can relieve stress, tension, and anxiety leading to a richer, fuller, and healthier life (Benson, 1975).
