Relax! Am I showing my age/taste of music here?!
At least once a day you should find a way to relax, even just for 10 mins. I'm not talking about sitting in front of the TV, I mean doing an activity that is just about you.
Are you one to meditate or would like to give it a go? There are free meditations on this website and tips on how to do it
www.meditation.org.au
Are you someone who likes to take a long bath? Add some Epsom and sea salts to help the relaxation and your limbs. If you don't have a bath, have a longer than normal shower, get a face washer and put a few drops of lavender on it, wet it and rub your body with it.
Do you read? Join a library, get the iBook app, or borrow from friends.
Go for a walk, even just around the block.
Take some deep breaths.
Do your favourite activity - golf, fishing, yoga, or bike-riding.
Listen to you favourite album from start to finish, sing along to feel even better!
Sit outside and watch the world go by.
If you're not sure of the kind of relaxation you need, the website below gives great suggestions based on your reaction to stress. I'm not surprised I need to do rhythmic dancing!

Are you willing to share what you do to relax? Have a cup of tea and think about it ;-)
