Stress and Relaxation Techniques for Pulmonary Patients

Description

Patients are encouraged to look at the stress caused by physical symptoms, emotional issues, and the daily impact their illness may have on their lives. The video emphasizes that, in part, it's the patient's perception of stress that affects the body. It encourages and shows patients how to get back in control, particularly when they feel short of breath and anxious or panic-stricken. Patients learn about mental imagery, muscle relaxation, deep chest breathing, work simplification, and energy conservation.
