MED2029 (SENT ON BEHALF OF DR. KAUSHAL NANAVATI) -- Weekly Wellness PEARL

[Barbara Glover]

Good morning,

Each weekly message includes a technique that can support your well-being and is grounded in scientific evidence and practical application.  Incorporating these strategies into your daily routine can significantly enhance your overall health and wellness.

Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR)

  *   Scientific Evidence: PMR reduces stress and improves relaxation.
     *   Reference: Conrad, A., & Roth, W. T. (2007). Muscle relaxation therapy for anxiety disorders: It works but how? Journal of Anxiety Disorders, 21(3), 243-264.
  *   Daily Implementation:
     *   Practice PMR before bed.
     *   Use PMR before exams.
     *   Relax during study breaks.

Have a great day!
