Purpose: To train our body to open and release tension.

When our body is in a trauma or stress response, it constricts and tightens, which sends a signal to our brain that something is wrong.

This sets our brain into hyper vigilance, which ultimately affects our ability to think clearly and make rational decisions.

By over-exaggerating the tension in our body by tightening our muscles and then releasing and opening them on the exhale, we are giving our body, and therefore our mind, the signal that it is safe to let go of hyper vigilance and open to more possibility.
