Relaxation reduces mental and physical tension, leading to feelings of calm, reduced stress, improved mood and enhanced cognitive function. It can be achieved through various techniques and substances.
Relaxation encompasses a state of reduced mental and physical tension, leading to a decrease in physiological arousal, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and muscle tension. This physiological shift is accompanied by a subjective feeling of calm and ease. This state can be induced through various techniques (e.g., meditation, deep breathing) and substances (e.g., certain herbs, supplements). The resulting reduction in stress hormones and activation of the parasympathetic nervous system improves mood, reduces stress and anxiety symptoms, enhances cognitive function (particularly focus and attention), improves sleep quality, and increases overall feelings of well-being. The overall outcome of relaxation helps the body recover from stress and improves psychological health.
