What do you do to relax and calm down?

Do you: listen to music? Dance? Watch a movie? Go for a drive? Meditate? Take a bath?

For me, I like to listen to music :)

What do you do to relax and calm down?
sit quiet in the room without doing anything

Do you: listen to music? Dance? Watch a movie? Go for a drive? Meditate? Take a bath?
non of the above

what?
what what?

Jogging
studying something outside the school curriculum
shopping
inviting someone for a dinner

who would dance to relax? to let out some steam yeah i understand, but relax? hmm..

in preference order:
-take a shower/bath.
- take a walk.
-listen to music while lying in bed.
-sun bath. anywhere with sunlight and just lay there. feeling the sun makes me feel so relaxed and at peace for some reason, it probably has to do with my childhood.

and if i had a license, i'd probably drive. late night cruises are calming.

Listen to music or eat :love:

Thread moved from Member Lounge.

Nap or lay on a couch until I eventually nap.

Taking a walk, listening to music, reading something interesting & driving in the night

Listen to music, or have a bubble bath.

Surf the net, watching tv or a movie, laying down the bed

Listen to music

If u get time to relax, just sleep, its the best u can get out of ur time!

Enjoy the comfort of my recliner ;)

listen to music
play a random episode of friends :p
drive around aimlessly
sit on the roof if the weather is nice
smoke

Serfing the net is the first thing i do in my relaxation time.
listening to music.
haveing a deep Sleep.

Sitting on the beach...
imagining women passing by naked..

Listen to music sometimes, have a hot shower, stare out of the window or just lie on the bed enjoying the warm rays of the sun.

Oh and read novels while lying down.

Get online with a hot cup of coffee
Spend time tending to my plants on the roof, then just lay there in the warm sun till I dozed off.
Workout - shower - sleep
Warm drink, lie in bed and listen to music till I slept.
Warm drink, lie in bed, read till I slept.

Before I had kids with me 24/7.. I would take a long slow drive out somewhere. Used to live a stones throw away from the two major beaches here. And in winter, I would drive out there, take a thick jacket and a blanket, a flask of hot coffee and just sit on the sand of this deserted beach and watch the waves.. bliss! It's even better when you got someone for company. You just lie there together and listen to the sea..

Sitting with a Leeso under the date palm trees behind our house facing the wadi in the afternoon with a cup of tea, even though it embarasses my brothers.

usually shopping i find shopping very relaxing

1. Sailing does it for me, nothing is like taking off the beach and just going for a nice cruiz, leaving people inland with their problems and enjoying the beautiful nature with wind no engine fumes or loud noise and you don't have to shout at the person with you, you treat them like "people." But this needs alot of planning an mostly I do it after I finish a long bad exams period =(

2. When at home, go outside and sit by the pool listen to the sound of wind *if there is* moving the leaves and branches of the big trees by the pool or the sound of the water. Its so calming and best of all sometimes at night I take my i-Pod with me and lay down on the rocking chair listen to music till I feel like sleeping than go inside the house and sleep for real, lol..

3. Oh I also forgot the fire! We pick old branches and light them up mostly at night and sit away from it (from where the wind blows the smoke) watch them get burned for some reason I love that! I love the smell from the smoke of burned dry leaves, its also nice during winter at the beach, romantic & calming.. :love:

^^^listening to the sound of water is so relaxing

talk on the phone to someone that doesnt bore me
have lots of chocolate and icecream
lye down and do nothing
look outside the window
go for walks
sit in a cafe (i love cafes, they calm me down :P)
go for a swim

I dance but not to relax, i just like dancing

Lie on my couch and veg.

^^^listening to the sound of water is so relaxing

totally.. :love:

^yeah..exactly...i never really thought of it:p

Also warm baths followed by a serious skin moisturizing session. I'd go for cocoa body butter or strawberry (its very nice and calming to smell of any of the two before sleeping) then take off to dreams land or just watch television. That's what I do during exams period or after a long busy working day, my friends tend to look messy while I stick to my exams period plan (study hard but never forget yourself or your normal beauty routine, if you don't take care of you no one will). :p

Everyone deserves a nice break and there is no excuse to look bad even when we are awfully busy we should take care of ourselves. :angel:

keel wa7ad lazem yedala3 3umro = everyone should spoil themselves :p

Have 8 cups of coffee :angel:

^*screams* :mmhmm:

:XD:

My perfect day of relaxation is this (after a busy day):
A clean room.
A cup of tea.
A comfortable sofa.
My iTunes playing.
A really good book.
TV on standby.

I can't wait for exams to be over :(
