How do you RELAX?

Long story short, I need to relax. I am pretty stressed out and worry too much. So what do you do to relax and not take life too seriously? DH says I am too tense sometimes and need to have more fun & relax. Any tips?

If you figure it out, let me knowChat Icon

Honestly, I've worked very hard to get myself to the point where I give myself a break from all the stress. You have to. And I try to remind myself that all the stressing in the world still can't make things go any smoother.

Re: How do you RELAX?

I have no love for exercise, but a good workout does help me relax, since it eases my stress.

I also like to watch movies and read to relax.

Re: How do you RELAX?

This time of year I can't get enough of the outdoors. Long walks - preferably on trails is my thing.
I can't think of what I do to relax the rest of the year.Chat Icon Chat Icon

I take a nice hot bubble bath with candles when I'm stressed.

Re: How do you RELAX?

I go for a run to let the steam out, then I take a nice long hot shower, put my pj's on and just watch tv or read a book

Love camping and boating.

When that's not possible...lots of stretching and deep breathing topped off with a great meal!

Re: How do you RELAX?

honestly, the only way I feel relaxed is:
laying in the sun ( very calming for me)

or drinking wine or some cocktails- that's it.

I am a bag of nerves
