Relaxation

In class on (4/5) we learned about relaxation and actually did some guided imagery to relax ourselves in this stressful part of the semester.  We talked about how we personally reduce our stress levels and learned some different techniques.  We learned that breathing is a very important step in the relaxation process.  Some of the different techniques we looked at are laughter yoga and guided imagery.  Laughter yoga is pretty innovative and definitely takes the right person to facilitate this.  Watching a video on it just makes me feel uncomfortable for the person leading it, its something I would never be able to facilitate.  Guided imagery is really relaxing and really focus on  breathing and relaxing every part of your body.  After this lesson on relaxation we broke off into our groups to plan for our long presentation.  My group actually has relaxation so we were planning on doing some of the things he mentioned in his PowerPoint.  It we great to get a little insight to relaxation before our groups turn to present.
