What people across the internet say helped
I love these Tension and Stress Relief videos! They help so much! Please do more!— @HAC001, on youtube
Thank you so much! My constant anxiety hinders me from completing my work. After doing your excersize, I feel more awake and more relaxed.— @Slime5276, on youtube
Hi Kassandra. I am very new to yoga and after trying several different beginner classes I finally found yours. I love both beginner classes and do them as 1 workout. I am very inflexible but I enjoy trying and feel I am making grogress.— @cathymcguire7451, on youtube
@RoyChiato So for physical stress relief, I think Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) is great, it takes a while to have actual effect, but just building that habit is good.
Honestly going on walks without time restrictions is underrated too— @drawn_legend, on x
Okay, recommended by my therapist and I can honestly say it worked great. I will definitely make this part of my routine. 👍— @artyom_zdanek, on youtube
I was suggested this to help with my anxiety and insomnia. This is the 2nd time I've tried it. I was skeptical at first but I do think it works if you give it a proper try.— @kjwest2047, on youtube
