Etymology
'relaxation-focused' originates from the combination of 'relaxation' and 'focused', where 'relaxation' comes from Latin 'relaxare', meaning 'to loosen', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus', meaning 'hearth' or 'center'.
'relaxation' evolved from the Latin 'relaxare' through Old French 'relaxacion', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus' through Middle English 'focussed'.
Initially, 'relaxation' meant 'loosening' and 'focus' meant 'center', but together they now imply a central emphasis on relaxation.
