Do you want to find more peace in everyday life and reduce feelings of stress? There are several effective relaxation techniques that can help you with this

The power of conscious relaxation

Conscious relaxation is about actively creating a state of calm in body and mind. This is not only pleasant in the moment, but also has a number of long-term health benefits, including reduced stress, better sleep, increased focus and improved mood. Cenli gives you a unique perspective on your relaxation by measuring heart rate variability (HRV), finger temperature and muscle tension, which are indicators of the body's ability to adapt and manage stress.

Explore different relaxation techniques with Cenli

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

1. Diaphragmatic breathing (Belly breathing): This is a basic but very effective technique that activates the parasympathetic nervous system. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach. Breathe in slowly through your nose, so that your stomach expands more than your chest. Breathe out slowly through your mouth. With Cenli, you can observe how HRV increases when you practice deep belly breathing, which confirms that your body is entering a more relaxed state.
2. 4-7-8 Breathing Technique: This simple technique can help you calm down quickly. Breathe in through your nose for 4 seconds, hold your breath for 7 seconds, and breathe out slowly through your mouth for 8 seconds. Repeat this a few times. Many people experience a feeling of calm after just a few repetitions.
3. Guided meditation: There are countless guided meditations that focus on relaxation, visualization and mindfulness. Use Cenli during meditation to see how your body reacts. You may find that certain types of meditation have a greater relaxing effect on your physiology than others.
4. Body scan: Involves systematically directing attention to different parts of the body and observing any feelings or tensions. Use Cenli along the way to see how your HRV changes as you focus on different areas of the body and when you manage to release tension.
5. Autogenic training: This is a relaxation technique that uses mental images of heaviness and warmth in different parts of the body to induce a deep state of relaxation. By using Cenli at the same time, you can get objective confirmation of whether these mental exercises actually have a physiologically relaxing effect.
