ha, ha. sounds relaxing indeed. if only i can do the same at home. i have 3 little kids who are constantly squabbling and demanding my attention, i feel like freaking out sometimes. thanks!

I too have many responsibilities and deadlines with little time left at the end of the day for myself. I know this sounds completely ridiculous, but I sit with my eyes closed for about 5 minutes and repeat to myself "breathe in, breathe out". Sounds ridiculous even to me, but I swear it works. I try to do this every day, usually at the height of insanity. It helps me to rally so that I can get through the rest of the day. It depends, when some people are in stress, they just run for a long time and sweat it off. while other people just nap, so yeah, it usually depends on the type of person you are.

tnx for the contribution. i used to go to the gym and it really helped me feel good afterwards. when i was younger, i just dance the stress off even when i'm only at home and it worked, too. i just can't go to the gym lately coz i work as a wedding coordinator and the coming season has been keeping me busy. but your suggestion sounds great, not ridiculuos. might try it sometime. thanks again!
