Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Latin verb relaxare, combining 're-' (an intensifier or reversal) and 'laxare' (to loosen or make wide, from laxus meaning loose). Entering Middle English via Old French in the 15th century, the term initially meant to loosen physically or remit an obligation before evolving to encompass the mental state of becoming free from tension and anxiety.
