How to Release Emotions and Beat Stress with Passive Progressive Relaxation

For an entire month, you have heard me say “when emotions are active, the stress response is active.” Women maintain high stress levels because we are constantly bombarded with situations and events that incite our emotions.

Why? The limbic system that manages emotions is the same system that manages the stress response.

In previous episodes, we talked about the connection between emotions and stress. We also shared ways in which women can lower stress and keep it low.

In today’s “Stress Talk” with Marcyline, we are going to practice passive progressive relaxation as we answer, “How to Release Emotions and Beat Stress with Progressive Relaxation.”
