About this episode

#686 This week on the Anxiety Slayer Podcast, Shann guides you through a progressive muscle relaxation. 

  We often recommend progressive muscle relaxation as a technique to help manage stress levels. What's particularly beneficial about this practice is its simplicity and accessibility, which not only helps alleviate physical tension but also promotes a sense of calmness and relaxation in the mind.   You can access all our Guided Relaxations and Tapping Sessions on our Patreon as well as over 200 downloads, including all of our guided relaxations.
