    hi all
    All of us need time to relax and we have our own ways to relax and enjoy....for some it may be watching TV...for some it may be being with friends...for some it may be surfing the net...while others find solace in listening to music and cerain others find religion helpful in destressing...
    For me the most helpful way to unwind is to do some thing i really like .....i love to do embroidery....even thinking up embroidery designs help me to unwind...for dat matter any craft ideas instantly cheers me up....for my mother,unwing is being with grandchildren...for my sister in law it is cooking....for my best friend it is arranging her cupboard:)(believe me she gets a wnderfl thrill out of arranging her wardrobe ).. for my brother it is playing video games.....(he is 38 and is in a senior position but nothing unwinds him better than a good video game):).list is endless.....
    what do my fellow ILites do to unwind..i wanted to know
    please share your experiences here so that we can all benefit from discovering new and varied ways of destressing
    :)
    regards

    I just hear old songs. That's the best way to unwind for me. If I am not very tired but just feeling down, I prefer cooking. I feel so rejuvenated after I have cooked something nice.

    For me, its watching some fun serial like Friends or comedy movies. These days I enjoy watching Princess movies with my DD. I love reading books, but then dont fine time anymore. So sort of given up on that.

    My favourite ways: listening to music, reading, pottering around in the garden, playing with my dog, trying out a new cuisine and going for a walk.
