Muscle tension is a constantly increased muscle tone when it is impossible to fully relax them. For kinesthetic learners, this is the kinesthetic sensation of tension.
Mythology
It is widely believed that a responsible attitude to a serious matter requires mandatory tension. Tense face, no smiles. «This is not a joke to you!» The truth here is that it is not uncommon for people who are having fun to become distracted from their work. On the other hand, organized people work best in an atmosphere of ease and tension. This does not distract an organized person, but raises energy and increases efficiency.
The body in ordinary life is better to be relaxed. The body should be strained only to the extent that the current activity requires from you, and everything else in the body should be relaxed, should prepare for possible work↑.
Is stress the result of work or failure?
Tension is the result of failure. A well-trained voice is a voice without tension. Moreover, I’ll tell you that most people, even the quietest, speak in a tense voice, on the cords. Any body psychologist or voice/singer specialist will confirm this. Just work on yourself makes the voice natural. Should we talk about posture?
