086 Relaxation Techniques That Match Your Personality Preferences

Welcome to the eighth of the Switch Off Sessions on The Good Life Well Lived podcast.

In this episode we are going to explore how you can identify relaxation techniques based on your own Myers Briggs Personality Preferences.

For a lot of people, traditional relaxation techniques don't work and can often have the opposite effect. I share an anecdote about a friend who repeatedly went on spa days and would leave feeling more stressed than she started. By understanding our personality preferences (e.g. if you are an extrovert and get your energy from other people then don't expect to feel refreshed after a day of solitude) we can best create situations and experiences that we will find truly relaxing.
