Allright, I know we all get stressed out every once and a while, and some of us more than others (for instance, ME!)So this is the thread for everyone to talk about those things that they do to relieve stress. My stressbusters are listening to music, watching movies, playing my flute or guitar and... *drumroll* ...Writing! Anybody else got interesting ways to relieve stress? Maybe you'll suggest something someone else hasn't thought of! [ 02-24-2003 10:57 PM: Message edited 1 time, lastly by Mara1Jade ] -------------------- Small minds think in small terms!

And the bad news is you'd still have to pay for a coffin!Isn't that just ridiculous? When you're cremated you still have to pay for a coffin that gets cremated with you. And it's not even as fancy as the $5,000 jobs they bury you in, sheesh. But I digress... resistance training is a great way of relieving tension. If it doesn't kill you first!  I'm currently going to a gym, since my job conflicts with taekwondo classes  and I just hit the treadmill and put 'er on about 5% grade and go for the fastest walk I can keep up. That works, too. -------------------- I ride the Stormcloud and the Night!

Yes, taekwondo....Pilsan! *Bows* I really, really miss it; I wish they had day classes. I made it up to high green, and I really wanted to get through brown at least. Maybe I can just go hang at the school and practice anyway, ya think? Anyway, here's another stressbuster: cozying up in either a nice sleeping bag or a quilt, with cats tucked in with you, purring... eating honey roasted peanuts and reading a Pat McManus book, in particular, "The Grasshopper Trap." Now that's a sure-fire way to get rid of any tension whatsoever... especially the cats. Wishes to point out that having pets does decrease hypertension and stress levels, and promotes a longer life. This too has been supported by studies. Hmmm.... Considering the zoo I live with, I ought to live until the 24th century!

How does coffie help you relax dash? when caffiene is a freaken stimulant! it kinda does the exact oposite... Oh hey people, i could be a little late to this thread, but who cares! :P Stress relief... Heh, great stuff... I once had no stress at all... I took a stress test and it gave me 11% stressed out... and the average TOTALY NOT STRESSED person was at 33% stressed... It said the only way for me to become more relaxed would be to be put into a coma... Im kinda afraid to take that test right now though ya... Im kinda going crazy... But you know what i find helps... Listen to celtic music while doing tai' chi excersizes... Specialy "loorina McKinnit" im pretty sure its not spelled that way, but ya, its great music... Anyway... Just thought id jump in for the heck of it  -------------------- "Insert Snappy quote here"
