چکیده

In this paper, we address the issue how a computing system can coach people in doing progressive muscle relaxation exercises. Such a system could help many people in dealing with their stress-related problems like poor sleep. We develop a formal model of progressive muscle relaxation, provide examples of typical instantiations of the model and identify how different coaching activities have their effects on the model. The model can be used as a basis on top of which concrete coaching applications can be developed.
