progressive relaxation

Day 60: Feels like I go through the day experiencing long periods of tension followed by short periods of relaxation. They seem to follow whatever comes up or the type of activity I’m doing ..like receiving news of a project deadline or working through a computer problem. I think progressive relaxation [ link ] works by forcing me to spend at least 20 minutes or so repeating this ‘tense and release’ cycle quickly and deliberately. It seems to put tension and relaxation more under my control .. extend the period of time I get to spend in relaxation and, who knows ..maybe even help me learn to relax at will.
