For beginners it is better not to use the EPG when practicing before going to sleep or to plug the EPG into a timer. The successful switching from tension to relaxation determines whether we feel well. The person who is gripped by physical tension and cramped muscles will also be psychologically cramped. Such a person's relation to the world around will also be beset with tension. Unhappiness, physiological problems and failures may result.
Tensions are always part of life.
But today it seems to be more difficult to relax than ever before. Although tension is necessary, even beneficial, in many situations of life, indiscriminate and chronic tension is not. The more chronically tense a person is, the stronger the desire to relax, and the more difficult it is to find this desired relaxation. Everyone reacts differently to states of tension. But every sickness also leads to an increase in tension that can have physical, psychological, and social effects.
