How your feet help you sleep: "The Science of Us"

Relaxation (Get Self Help UK)

Relaxation is allowing physical and/or mental tension to be released. Tension is the body's natural response to threat, part of the body's alarm or survival mechanism. Here are some relaxation techniques that you can practice or use as quick breathing exercises in times of stress or anxiety.

 

Mindfulness (NHS)

It can be easy to rush through life without stopping to notice much. Paying more attention to the present moment - to your own thoughts and feelings, and to the world around you - can improve your mental wellbeing.

Some people call this awareness "mindfulness". Mindfulness can help us enjoy life more and understand ourselves better. You can take steps to develop it in your own life.
