Before applying progressive relaxation exercises, the environment should be quiet, dimly lit, a comfortable chair or armchair should be sat or lying down, and clothing should be loose and comfortable, and it is recommended to apply it one hour after eating. In the application of progressive relaxation exercises, it is first asked to breathe regularly.
