The Relaxation Response:
A Foundational Unwind
In a world that demands constant performance, learning how to effectively recover is no longer a luxury, it's essential. This 45-minute live online class teaches you the evidence-based technique to consciously switch off your body's "fight-or-flight" mode and activate its natural state of deep, restorative rest.

The Relaxation Response
This class provides a direct, practical method for managing your body's response to stress. You will learn how to consciously elicit the "Relaxation Response," a term coined for the physiological state of profound rest that is the direct opposite of the acute stress response.
The session is a guided experience in deep decompression. We begin with a short, ten-minute calming breath practice to gently signal to your nervous system that it's time to slow down. Following a brief explanation of the science, you will be guided through the main twenty-minute meditation.
This practice systematically quiets the body and mind, using specific techniques to release muscular tension and calm mental activity, allowing you to access a state of true recovery. You'll learn a tangible skill that you can deploy anytime you feel the pressure mounting.
The method taught in this class is one of the most well-researched contemplative practices in modern science. The concept of the "Relaxation Response" was pioneered by Dr. Herbert Benson, a professor and cardiologist at Harvard Medical School, who sought to understand the measurable, physical effects of meditation.
Dr. Benson's research, and the decades of studies that followed, demonstrated that this state is the physiological mirror image of the "fight-or-flight" response. While stress floods the body with adrenaline and cortisol, the Relaxation Response does the opposite. Scientific studies have repeatedly shown that eliciting this state leads to a cascade of predictable and beneficial changes in the body, including a decrease in heart rate, a lowering of blood pressure, a reduction in oxygen consumption, and a shift in brainwave activity towards calmer alpha waves.
This isn't simply "relaxing", it is a specific, trainable, and deeply restorative state with a robust scientific foundation. At klarosity, we teach you the practical steps to access this state on demand.
