Stress management is a critical component of therapeutic interventions for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This article explores the efficacy of mindfulness training and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) as strategies to alleviate stress in this population. Current research indicates that these techniques can significantly reduce anxiety and improve overall well-being in children with autism. This paper reviews relevant studies and highlights the mechanisms through which mindfulness and PMR contribute to stress management.
