You have two hours to do something relaxing and
a budget of $100. What will you do?
Really, $100.00 is more then I would ever need
during warm weather. I would go for a
nice walk around either Spring Meadow Lake or Helena Valley Reservoir. I would stop by for a coffee. This is all I really need to relax. I love being by the water and of course,
coffee is a good addition. I also relax
when I am gardening. Sure, it is a ton
of work, but all my problems and worries disappear.
In the winter, I relax a lot while watching
movies. However, my favorite thing is to
go do my hair or my toenails. I do need
go good chunk of change for these activities. I am at an age where my feet crack from the
cold, dry weather. There is nothing
better then soaking my feet in hot water and having Shauna do her magic. I also take a coffee on this activity.
Anytime of the year, I can pick pour a cup of
coffee, sit in the recliner, and read a good book. I actually do this almost daily. Believe it or not, I also love putting on
instrumental music, lighting a candle, and writing. If the session flows, I am super relaxed
afterwards.
Finally, some painting helps me relax. I love to see something transform before my
eyes. Now, this isn't the painting of
pictures type of painting. This is find
a wall and just melt into the motion of the brush. I love to paint, especially outside. I am already looking forward to working on
painting the eves of the house later this year.
Really, relaxing for me is pretty easy. Heck, I even relax doing dishes and folding
laundry if I am mindful of the task and not the million other things I want or
need to do. Relaxing is a state of mind
I strive for all the time. The more I
relax the more my autoimmune leaves me alone and my pain is a lot less. Besides, relaxing leads to a joy filled day. Be mindful and have a relaxing day.
