Systematic relaxation is a practice that leads to 'pratyahara' (sense withdrawal) which allows the mind to relax and can lead to better focus. (-'Australian Yoga Life') The practice of Yoga Nidra (or psychic sleep) is one great way to systematic relaxation.
Systematic desensitization is a type of classical conditioning often used in the treatment of phobias and anxiety disorders. It involves gradually exposing a person to their fear in a controlled and safe environment, while teaching them relaxation techniques to help manage their anxiety response.
The behavior therapy methods of flooding and systematic desensitization are both quite different ways of overcoming a phobia. While flooding forces you to confront your fears, systematic desensitization teaches how to develop relaxation skills then eventually setup a hierarchy system ie. being scared of spiders is not as bad as being scared of public humiliation.
Joseph Wolpe's theory, known as systematic desensitization, suggests that fears and phobias can be treated by gradually exposing individuals to anxiety-provoking stimuli while teaching relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety responses. By pairing relaxation with the feared stimulus in a hierarchical manner, individuals can eventually re-associate the feared stimulus with relaxation rather than fear. This process aims to create a new, non-anxious response to the previously feared situation.
Systematic desensitisation is a type of CBT (Cognitive behavioral Therapy) mainly focussing on the behavioral component. It is used for people who have specific types of Phobias e.g. Agoraphobia (fear of being trapped). It is very simple but an effective treatment. Initially the patient is taught some relaxation exercises to use during the therapy. The therapist will usually sit with the patient and come up with a list of situations that cause anxiety to the patient. The patient will then list them in a hierarchal fashion with the least anxiety provoking situation to the most anxiety provoking situation. They will start with the least anxiety provoking situation exposing the patient to it and ask them to utilise the relaxation techniques to prevent the anxiety. This has to be done repeatedly and once this situation does not cause any anxiety, the patient will move to the next step in a graded manner. This requires active participation and repeated practice from the patient but the therapist can help with this initially. Systematic desensitization would involve a schedule of gradual exposure to a situation, or a food or drink, or a fear, the purpose of which would be to enable the subject to eventually accept the situation previously unable to handle.
Joseph Wolpe's proposed theory based on classical conditioning, known as systematic desensitization, explained how phobias and anxiety could be treated by gradually exposing individuals to their feared stimuli while teaching them relaxation techniques. This therapy aimed to help individuals replace their learned fear response with a relaxation response, ultimately reducing their fear and anxiety levels.

systematic desensitization
Systematic desensitization is a type of classical conditioning often used in the treatment of phobias and anxiety disorders. It involves gradually exposing a person to their fear in a controlled and safe environment, while teaching them relaxation techniques to help manage their anxiety response.
Systematic desensitization was developed by psychologist Joseph Wolpe in the 1950s as a form of behavior therapy for treating phobias and anxiety disorders. The technique involves gradually exposing a person to their feared object or situation while teaching relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety.
Systematic desensitization can help individuals gradually overcome phobias or anxieties by pairing relaxation techniques with exposure to fear-inducing stimuli. This approach allows individuals to learn coping mechanisms and reduce their sensitivity to triggers. It is often effective in treating specific phobias, PTSD, and social anxiety disorders.
The behavior therapy methods of flooding and systematic desensitization are both quite different ways of overcoming a phobia. While flooding forces you to confront your fears, systematic desensitization teaches how to develop relaxation skills then eventually setup a hierarchy system ie. being scared of spiders is not as bad as being scared of public humiliation.
