Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this time of quarantine and global uncertainty, it can be difficult to deal with the increased stress and anxiety. Using ancient self-care techniques rediscovered by Herbert Benson, M.D., a pioneer in mind/body medicine for health and wellness, you can relieve your stress, anxiety, and depression at home with just ten minutes a day. Herbert Benson, M.D., first wrote about a simple, effective mind/body approach to lowering blood pressure in The Relaxation Response. When Dr. Benson introduced this approach to relieving stress over forty years ago, his book became an instant national bestseller, which has sold over six million copies. Since that time, millions of people have learned the secret—without high-priced lectures or prescription medicines. The Relaxation Response has become the classic reference recommended by most health care professionals and authorities to treat the harmful effects of stress, anxiety, depression, and high blood pressure. Rediscovered by Dr. Benson and his colleagues in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School and its teaching hospitals, this revitalizing, therapeutic tack is now routinely recommended to treat patients suffering from stress and anxiety, including heart conditions, high blood pressure, chronic pain, insomnia, and many other physical and psychological ailments. It requires only minutes to learn, and just ten minutes of practice a day.

Download or read book Immediate Effects of Relaxation Training in Adolescent Psychiatric Patients written by Adele Platania-Solazzo and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heart rate and activity levels increased during exercise and decreased during the relaxation portion of the class. Although depressed patients appeared to have higher cortisol values than the adjustment disorder patients there were no significant effects. The lack of statistically significant cortisol reduction may be a result of the large amount of variance in cortisol values among depressed patients. Because 62% of depressed patients showed increased cortisol values and 38% showed decreased cortisol values following relaxation training, two subtypes of depressed patients may be present. All adjustment disorder patients showed decreases in cortisol. The subsample of patients participating in the treatment and control condition showed greater reduction in anxiety (measured by the STAI-C and behavior rating), in heart rate, and in cortisol values during the treatment condition than in the control condition. Thus, relaxation training had immediate positive effects as seen by the changes in the entire sample of patients and in the subsample of patients participating in both conditions.
