在练习一种新的、容易学会的放松技术的过程中，氧气消耗、二氧化碳产生和呼吸频率显著减少。这项技术的要素是防止思想分心的心理装置，消极的态度，肌肉张力降低，以及尽可能不受视觉和听觉刺激的安静环境。无论眼睛睁着还是闭着，静静地坐着都不会产生同样的变化。这些生理变化与下丘脑的综合反应相一致，从而导致假想的交感神经活性降低。这种反应最近被称为“放松反应”。
Oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and respiratory rate are significantly decreased during the practice of a new, easily-learned relaxation technique. The elements of the technique are a mental device to prevent distracting thoughts, a passive attitude, decreased muscle tonus, and a quiet environment which is as free of visual and auditory stimuli as possible. Sitting quietly with the eyes either open or closed failed to produce the same changes. These physiologic changes are consistent with an integrated hypothalamic response resulting in hypothesized decreased sympathetic activity. This response has recently been termed the “relaxation response.”
