Embodied Relaxation

Taking a minute to relax is a great way to take a step back, re-center, and re-focus. Often, we tell students to relax without providing them with a physical way to practice relaxation. Embodiment can help us recognize feelings in our bodies, causing us to understand them more deeply. By embodying relaxation we can start to recognize the feeling of being relaxed, and learn how to relax in the future.
