less tired. I felt refreshed. My eyes were no longer tired and my body

"All weekend
long I had a tension headache. I even went to the doctor and this was
his diagnosis. I was in a lot of pain and so I tried one of the relaxation
techniques rather than take the four Advil four times a day prescribed
by the doctor. The exercise was very productive. It relieved most of
the tension I was feeling in my neck and shoulders. After the first
time (trying the exercise) I was very relaxed and each of the two times
after this the tension seemed to go away. Prior to this, I would go
to the doctor and try several doses of Tylenol and acetaminophen. There
was no relief after any of the medication was taken. I truly believe
the relaxation exercise helped with my tension headache." (Billie
Jo Pinter)
"After doing
the relaxation exercise I felt as if I was ready to do something. I
was "up and ready to go." I felt almost wired. I was also

The day went by a lot smoother after this activity. This helped me a
great deal. I am going to try to do this daily." (Leslie Schumacher)

with my plants. My whole day was very calm, beautiful and enjoyable.

is a good thing. I am starting to look at a lot of things in my life
differently. My reactions are not so compulsive. I seem to have more
energy at the end of the day." (Kelly Dillinger)
"After relaxing
I felt completely relaxed. I almost hated to get up and go deal with
anything else. My mind was clear and the stress just seemed to disappear."
(Joe Savino)
"This (relaxation)
exercise is great! When I finished, I felt wonderful. My friend and
I went mountain bike riding. I had so much energy. We biked about 8
miles and it didn't phase me. This exercise is great and I plan on using
it weekly and I recommend it to anyone who has not tried it." (Tee
Wade)
