Why Is Relaxing Important For Good Health?

"Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax," Mark Black.

Stress is necessary to deal with difficult challenges in life, but if you stay in an elevated state of stress, it will negatively affect your physical and mental health. Stress elevates the release of cortisol hormones in your body which can affect the function of the brain. It can cause you to worry, have poor concentration, have anxiety, and even have difficulty making decisions.

Stress management has become a vital part of wellness programs in every organization. And practicing 'relaxation' is paramount to managing stress. When you relax, blood flow increases around your body, giving you more energy.

Here are a few reasons why relaxing is good for your health -

• It helps you to have a calmer and clearer mind.

• It aids positive thinking, concentration, memory, and decision-making.

• It helps to slow your heart rate, reduces your blood pressure, and relieves tension.

• It also aids digestion as we absorb essential nutrients more efficiently when relaxed, which helps to fight off disease and infection.

• It also improves your sleep cycle.

• It helps to increase endorphins and serotonin levels.
