Reading through some posts seems that now that the holidays are over and well...bill paying time is here, lots of stress!
What do you do to relax even if it's only for a few minutes to escape reality!!!

Goal #1:
My job is really stressful and I thought about stress relief tactics over the Christmas holidays. One thing I love to do and haven't done for a long time is bake bread from scratch. I love it and find it very meditative and relaxing. I can also make really good bread for about a 1/4 of the cost of store bought, and I share it with a friend who is struggling financially and who doesn't have time to bake.
Exercise is also crucial.
I must confess yesterday I was so stressed I was going bonkers.
Work in my yard.

Taking a long hot shower with the lights off but our window lets in enough outside light to come through so I'm not in total darkness.
Taking it day by day...
sign me up for the hot-bath-as-relaxation party, as well!
In warmer weather I often dig out my walkman, turn the music up loud and go for a walk...but in the winter thats NOT relaxing!
