When we feel intense emotion our bodies can tense up. DBT TIPP skills can help us feel more relaxed. Using the DBT TIPP Skill P for Paired Muscle Relaxation, we will be squeezing a particular muscle group and holding our breath for seven seconds. After seven seconds, exhale and release the muscle group. In this video, Ryan focuses on the shoulder blades. Squeeze your shoulder blades as tight as you can, raising them to your ears. Inhale and hold your breathe. After 7 seconds, exhale and then release the muscles. Repeat this several times until you feel your body and mind relax. You can practice this P or Paired Muscle Relaxation skill on various muscles groups throughout your body.  Check out other Freedom Institute skills videos on our blog. Join our YouTube Channel as well.
