What do you do to de-stress?

I love your weekends! I also like going to parks when we were still in Dubai - they have huge parks over there! You can read it up on my blog to see That is one thing I can never do, exercise every day

@besweet oh yes they do! did you just visit as a tourist or did you work there? That is also what my husband tells me about exercise that i need to make it a habit. I think I was able to do so but then when it got too hot for me, I had to stop.

@funkeyguhl I have't been to a park in Dubai, but I remember they had amazing shopping malls! Exercising is hard at first but if you make it a habit, it works perfectly for releasing stress.

maybe i should do that, too. after all, it's easy, free and simple, right?

do you still do that even if it's too hot these days?

@hereandthere Yes and it helps a lot.

@funkeyguhl It can be quite difficult when it's too noisy. It'd be good to meditate in a quiet place. I actually couldn't meditate so well or easily before I attended a meditation class last year, I learned from the class, and it really helps. If you can find a good meditation class to learn at the beginning, it might be easier for you.

Meditation is something that I cannot do because our area is very busy. I don't have the ability to compartmentalise the sounds like others do. Mylotting is a good way to de-stress, I agree. Hahaha! That is a good combination! :)

@kaka I like to meditate to and I did it for years than stopped it for some reason. I tried it again a few months ago and fell into such a deep sleep. I had no idea where I was when I woke up.

I assume this is the way you de-stress by playing a video game

@CaptAlbertWhisker hahaha you are funny

@funkeyguhl videogames with hotchicks as protagonist. You know if the protagonist is male, you will be seeing his butt for hours. So thats why I prefer female characters, I wont mind seeing her butt for hours.

Music is a great stress reliever that is correct! Hmm I do not like going out alone here, I am not certain in terms of security. Luckily, my husband keeps me company

@skysnap I see... I might try and see if biking de-stresses me because the husband just got me a bikE! Unfortunately, no we do not have a park or zoo nearby.

@funkeyguhl I usually go on bike alone. I agree safety for women is issue all around the world. but if you have garden or zoo nearby then that can be a safe place too.

Being in mylot is a good de-stresser! I forgot to mention it! What type of music do you listen to so that you can release your stress?

@carebear To me music can cure any mood I am in. I love all kinds and it brings back so many memories from the past.

@funkeyguhl Most the Oldies, 50's 60's music but I love all kinds even way back to the things my parents liked. Big Band music from the Roaring 20's and all the way up t some of the present ones.

I am curious how long do you usually take as a power nap?

@funkeyguhl I have it if I have enough time.

that must have been a stressful time for you because you had to take time and visit your school and be reminisce?

I agree if you have the graveyard shift
