Progressive muscular relaxation
The physical setting where helpers train should be conducive to relax ation. This involves absence of disruptive noise, interior decoration that is restful and lighting which may be dimmed. Clients may be taught to relax in recliner chairs, or on mattresses or, at the very least, in comfortable upright chairs with headrests.From the start helpers can teach relaxation training as a useful skill for daily life. Furthermore, clients should understand that success at learning relaxation, just like success at learning any other skill, requires practice and that relaxation homework will be required. Before starting relaxation, helpers can suggest that clients wear loose-fitting, comfort able clothing both during interviews and when doing relaxation homework. Furthermore, that it is helpful to remove items such as glasses and shoes.
