Decompressing

maven212

So, in the last few years we've all had some stressful times. How do you decompress? I used to chill by going to the gym, heading to the park or mainlining a tv show via netflix. A few years before that, I'd head out to a fancy bar and have a drink with my girlfriends. I can't do most of these things at the moment. Mainly, I chill by enjoying silence while LO sleeps... and it isn't all that effective What do you do?

A warm bath, crocheting, and hot tea sipping. I have also taken up stress relief yoga. The yoga does wonders for me. It feel extremely refreshed after a session.

Masturbation and reading. Sometimes at the same time.

Lavender bath followed by a heating pad on my neck/shoulders. I try to just sit and relax in the quiet when using the heating pad, but I normally end up playing candy crush.

Oh boy do I know stress now better than ever! I workout. But it has to be outside with music blasting in my ears. Also, wine and candles. Works every time.

Surfing the net. Reading. Hot beverages. Video games sometimes.

At home... turning on Musak and cleaning/reading a book

I've been trying to read before going to bed.  I also have a strong passion for Starbucks these days.
