Great suggestion BloodMoon. They are connected.
Once I learned about TMS I search for all the ways I could reduce mental and physical tension. I included some of them in my book. The technique that I have found most effective for muscle tension and have been practicing for more than 25 years does involve relaxing the jaw and tongue as BloodMoon mentioned.
When I do it before sleep it helps me get a deep restful sleep. When I do it after a tense day it refreshes me. I made an audio that guides through the process. It is available now for free. You can listen to it at www.fredamir.com/podcasts. Just scroll down to the podcast titled
Relieve Physical and Mental Tension.
What I like about it is that you as you practice it you become more aware of when your muscles are becoming tense. Then you can take steps to relax them long before they become too tense or painful.
Take care,
