    Exhale Into Ease

    In this slow, breath-focused Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) session, you’ll be guided to gently tense and release each major muscle group while using the exhale to soften, unwind, and signal ease throughout the body. This practice emphasizes a calm, rhythmic breath - pairing every release with the silent cue “relax.” Beginning with the hands and arms, moving through the face, shoulders, and torso, and ending with the legs and feet, each cycle helps you notice the contrast between tension and letting go as your body becomes lighter, warmer, and deeply at ease. Use this session anytime you want to melt away stress, calm your nervous system, and ease into a peaceful state of rest. As you continue to breathe slowly and naturally, allow a full-body wave of relaxation to wash over you from head to toe.

    Wave of Release

    In this guided Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) practice, you’ll move slowly through each major muscle group — tensing gently without strain, holding for a few seconds, and then releasing fully to create a soothing wave of relaxation throughout the body. This session begins with the face and upper body before moving gradually downward, helping you release stress, quiet the mind, and reconnect with your breath. Each cycle of tension and release deepens your sense of heaviness, calm, and ease. Use this recording any time you need to unwind, reduce anxiety, or prepare your body for restful sleep. Allow the guided cues to support you as you soften, breathe, and let a wave of release flow from head to toe.
