Relaxation is like learning a sport or a musical instrument. At first, relaxation will be difficult. It may feel unnatural or uncomfortable as you learn how to relax, just like it may feel unnatural as you learn how to hold a bat or play a song. However, practicing is the only way we can improve our skills, whether we're playing baseball or learning to relax. As we practice, we become better at relaxation and it comes more naturally to us. There will be times when we still struggle to relax, but if we see those times as cues to practice relaxation, we can improve our skills in relaxation. The Stress Management and Biofeedback Services allows you to be coached by someone familiar with relaxation, but practicing on your own is essential to becoming a professional. Practice leads to better, more fulfilling relaxation.
