They pay for therapy, pharmaceuticals, alcohol, drugs, or things to comfort eat. Stress is both an emotional and physical reaction-the mind affects the body, and research is showing more and more that the body affects the mind. Some of the techniques in 23 Easy Relaxation Techniques get your body relaxed in a matter of minutes-and in some cases, seconds-while others get your mind relaxed. When you grab a cat by the scruff of its neck, it instantly relaxes. The techniques in this book will allow you to become just as relaxed as that cat, and just as fast. When people talk about stress (rather than the actual causes of stress) they are usually referring to an internal feeling of anxiety. This is the fight-or-flight reflex in action. Depending on the kind of person you are and the external stimulus, you may react by getting angry, irritated, scared, or agitated. Once you recognise that you're in that state, the next step is to break its hold on you by doing something about it. Preferably something instant. That's where this book will help you. If stress is a big problem in your life and you need ways to unwind fast, this is the guide for you.
