Relaxation

After a state of great nervous and emotional tension, Jesus led the apostles on a three-day relaxation retreat on Mount Sartaba, where they learned the value of rest and the efficacy of relaxation. 143:3

Meditation makes the contact of mind with spirit; relaxation determines capacity for spiritual receptivity. 160:3.1

Relaxation is found in the echoes of a backward glance, a carefree review of the past that allows for rejuvenation and merriment. (48:4.12,19)
