"What Do You Mean, I Am Relaxed!!" - 24 Hour Free MP3 Offer

"What do you mean, I am relaxed!!" That's how one client replied during her sports massage session with me. She was very adamant that she was very relaxed. However, she didn't realise that her muscles were telling a different story. It wasn't until I got her to perform a rapid relaxation technique, that she realised she indeed wasn't relaxed at all. The interesting question is, even when someone is looking at themselves, how is it possible that they can think they are relaxed when they're not?

If you were to conduct a survey, asking people if they felt that they were physically relaxed, I'd imagine that a very high percentage would argue that they were and that would be quite a normal response. Unfortunately however, the truth of it, is that the muscles in our bodies are often tight and inflexible. Why?

When you were a child, say around the age of 5 or 6, did you ever wake up in the morning in pain, complaining of a bad back? Whens the last time you heard a child say "oh, my back ain't what it used to be?". Highly unlikely! Kids do get tight muscles, but that's normally from playing games, etc, for a long period of time. Yes parents, even their muscles get fatigued sometimes, although you wouldn't think it, by the way they can't keep still at times!!

As we get older we learn stress and how to feel stress! It's sad but true. You weren't born stressed. Of course, there are occasions when a baby is born distressed, due to a complicated birth, etc, but ultimately, we learn stress as we grow. Sadly, our bodies suffer, as we hold on to much of our stress throughout our muscles. That's when we get the bad backs, the stiff necks, the tight chest.

Then we have our dysfunctional world of ergonomics. If you work in an office, what's your workstation like? Is the chair at the right height, in correspondence to your screen and desk? Do you spend a lot of time on the laptop? How long a period do you spend in front of your computer? If you are female, which shoulder do you hold your handbag on? How heavy is it? But why am I talking about tight muscles and ergonomics?

Well, the body and mind are so intertwined that what affects the body, affects the mind! So if you're feeling stressed and your muscles are reflecting that, what affect do you think that is having on your mind?...not a great one! I want you to test something. Hunch your shoulders, knit your eyebrows together, breathe shallow from the chest and clench your teeth. How do you feel? Awful I bet. Now loosen your jawline, open and lower your shoulders, breathe from the stomach area, clench your fists and look up. Now how do you feel? Much better, right?

Your mind reflects what your body feels and vice versa. For me, it's important during a coaching session, to have the client relaxed, otherwise the work that they perform might not have the right impact.

If you are a sportsperson, it's vital to be able to relax at the right moments. Granted, some sports require you to have a certain amount tension in your muscles, I mean you wouldn't want to be half asleep running a 100m race, would you? And what about those of you who run hectic lives, juggling family and work responsibilities, you need to be able to relax at any given time too, isn't it?

What would it be like for you to relax in difficult situations? What would it feel like? What would you be saying to yourself? What picture comes to your mind right now?
