Undoing muscle tension is kinda like: 1. Notice you are tense 2. Notice where you are tense 3. Notice *you* are creating the the tension, and stop I suspect undoing mental tension is similar: 1. Notice you are tense (suffering) 2. Notice where 3. Notice *you* are doing it, and stop. (Example below) (do u agree @johnsonmxe ?) Step 3 can be hard though! See below
