There are so many things to do to relax. When I want to relax I usually put on some mellow music and/or grab a book. A bath or meditation can also be nice. People enjoy so many different things. So, what is relaxing to you? How do you unwind after a rough day?

I have a hard time tuning folks out usually. It's hard for me to relax when other people are around. I usually hide away if we have too many people around and I need some quiet. I like my private time, though. I get grumpy when I don't get it...lol.

Well, read a book or watch a moive on my computer. That is my way to relax. If I feel very tired, I will go to bed.

I've been known to over-relax and go out like a light. It has to be really quiet for that to happen, though.

I like to listen to some music or to read. But I prefer to be alone at such moments.

I'm the same way with being alone. I tend to go to bed later than everyone else so I can sit and enjoy the quiet. I just like the peacefulness of night. I do my writing at night, also.

I try to do calming stuff such as reading a book or watching a movie. Something that really doesn't take a lot out of me, something that won't add onto to any stress I already have.

A good movie can be very relaxing. Walking my dogs is anything but relaxing...lol. Especially now that we have two. They are too busy playing and tangling leashes..lol. I love them dearly, but they are pains in the butt.

meditation is good. I have just started that and love it. I never thought I could be so calm and relaxed. It is a peace like no other. I also like to read and take a nice bubble bath. Some times I do both at the same time.
