Do you want to find more calm in your everyday life and reduce feelings of stress? There are many effective relaxation techniques that can help. 

The Power of Intentional Relaxation

Intentional relaxation is about actively creating a state of calm in both body and mind.

This isn’t just pleasant in the moment — it also has long-term health benefits, including:

  • Lower stress

  • Better sleep

  • Improved focus

  • A more positive mood

Cenli gives you unique insight into your relaxation by measuring heart rate variation (HRV), finger temperature, and muscle tension — all key indicators of how well your body is adapting to and handling stress.

Here are some popular relaxation techniques you can try — and enhance — with Cenli:

  • Diaphragmatic Breathing (Belly Breathing):

    A simple but powerful way to activate your parasympathetic nervous system. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your belly. Inhale slowly through your nose, letting your belly expand more than your chest, then exhale slowly through your mouth. With Cenli, you can watch your HRV rise as you practice — confirming that your body is entering a calmer state.

  • The 4-7-8 Breathing Technique:

    Great for quickly calming down. Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, then exhale through your mouth for 8 seconds. Repeat a few times — many people feel noticeably more relaxed after just a few rounds.

  • Guided Meditation:

    There are countless guided meditations focusing on relaxation, visualization, or mindfulness. Use Cenli during your meditation to see how your body responds — you might find that certain meditations create a deeper relaxing effect than others.

  • Body Scan:

    This technique involves slowly focusing your attention on different parts of your body, noticing any sensations or tension. Watch how your HRV changes as you move your attention and release tension in each area.

  • Autogenic Training:

    A classic relaxation technique where you visualize warmth and heaviness in different parts of your body to induce deep relaxation. Using Cenli while practicing can confirm whether these mental exercises are truly creating a physical relaxation response.
