Practice

Often the movements which are slow and gentle induce tremors within the body which can release inner tensions. This Kum Nye practice is one example you might like to try.

Sit quietly for a while to rest your mind and body, perhaps for at least 5 minutes or longer.

Then gently stand up straight with your feet hip width apart, stay standing for a few seconds, then unlock your knees, almost but not quite bending your knees, allow your arms to rest at your sides, very slowly allow your arms to rise outwards from your sides keeping them fairly straight but not locked, this should take a few minutes, then very slowly allow your arms to rise up above your head (not reaching but rising) and then slowly down again.
