This guided Progressive Muscle Relaxation practice is a powerful tool for calming anxiety, reducing stress, and preparing your body for rest.

Like a body scan, this practice gently guides you through increased awareness of your muscles — but with an added focus on intentionally tensing and relaxing each area of the body. This helps retrain your brain to recognize the difference between tension and ease, making it easier to notice when your body is holding stress and needs care.

🧘‍♀️ Great for bedtime, anxious moments, or anytime you want to ground yourself and quiet the mind.
