"How to Improve Your Health With Easy Relaxation Techniques" by Tarun Patel

Do you suffer from fatigue and lack of energy? Do you have health problems or a serious illness? Learning some easy relaxation techniques can improve health by decreasing the amount of stress on your body. When you feel relaxed you body can then work on healing and restoring itself. Relaxation allows your mind to slow down and rest from the constant stream of information it deals with each day.

There are many health benefits the come from practicing relaxation. Constant high levels of stress, physical or emotional, put a strain on the body. When in a stressful situation the body responds by releasing chemicals into the bloodstream. This is to prepare you to cope with the stressful situation. If these chemicals are being released often, without the body having a chance to recover, then health problems can occur.

One of the main body systems to be affected by stress is the immune system. Many people find that they catch colds and flu’s more frequently when they are feeling stressed. Often students become sick at exam time. Practicing relaxation regularly can help the body to combat the effects of stress. Relaxation is very effective way for students to cope with exam pressures. For the best results use relaxation as a daily routine and then you will be better prepared to cope with stressful situations.

The heart, blood vessels and kidneys are also affected by constant high stress levels. The heart has to work harder and keep the blood pressure at a higher level to cope with stress. This doesn't do any damage when it is occasional. But the body wasn't designed to feel under pressure most of the day, every day. Many people feel pressured and tense when they get home from work. Relaxation for 20-30 minutes can help to lower the heart rate, lower the blood pressure and calm the mind.

Feeling constant stress affects health, and having poor health also affects relationships. If you feel unwell then there is not much energy left for other people that you care about. Tension in relationships can then become another source of stress and health suffers. The daily stresses of life can quickly add up and lead to feeling overwhelmed and unwell.

Using relaxation can help people who have chronic health conditions or serious illness. With chronic illness the immune system is already stressed. Using regular relaxation allows the body time for restoration and healing. Relaxation techniques can also help people cope better with routine medical procedures, medical appointments and hospital visits, which are often stressful and time consuming.
