I like to write and draw, but only for fun. I'm not the best, but I'm not the worst, either.
I also like to play video games and wander around campus (but only if the weather decides to be nice!).
Finally, I like to talk to my friends and my mom. My mom is the sweetest person EVER - she always listens to me and has really good advice.

Lifting weights, spending time in the outdoors, listening to music and shopping for clothes.0

Lay on the couch and pop in one of my favorite movies. Whatever I feel like watching at the time. Usually a comedy.0

I either practice a new song I need to learn. (Country music singer.) Or I curl up with a good book and read. No none of those trashy romance novels, I'm a Stephen King, Dean Koontz kinda gal lol. Oh and paint my nails too.0

I draw, listen to ambient trance, sing loudly to songs from the 80s or hard rock... hmm, pet my cats. If I'm really super stressed, I just take a shower and have a good sob-session-- feel like a million bucks after (and need a nap. lol)0

Ride my bike, hot bath, bake, sleep.0

If I'm really stressed out, which is very, very rare, I'll workout.
Listening to music, reading and learning relax me as well.0 -
Sing, drive, run, lift weights or give my cat a cuddle.0

1) Take a hike with my camera:bigsmile:
2) Ride my bike (currently he's in pieces :sad: )
3) Long drive with the top down and great music:glasses:
4) Draw/paint/charcoal something
5) Have an adult beverage:drinker:
6) Rape the Hubbs. :blushing:0 -
I am a bath queen and the bath salts or bubbles are a must! Also, a good tasting drink...not just booze but tasty just like food..gotta be flavorful. Meditation too...0

Go for a jog.. in a banana hammock and a monkey on my back, whilst smoking a cigar and listening to "Stayin' Alive" by The Bee Gees.0

Well my methods are nowhere near that interesting LMAO! Some things I do to relax include:
Taking a nap
Taking a walk (to reflect)
Listen to music (and dance around)
Talk to a close friend0 -
I channel all my stress, frustration, anger etc. into helping me to push passed my mental/physical limits as I workout. I always feel 100% better afterward.0

Build pc's.. / play PC / xbox games..
Eat chocolate =/0 -
Run0

Depending on the circumstances and/or time of day, and/or day of week:
Prayer and meditation
music - Christian Contemporary - I usually have alot of drive time during the workday (field service) , so I usually have lots of listening time. That's good, because it helps me keep balanced and focused.
Reading the message boards here to see if there is anyone I can offer some help to.
Spending quality time with my sweetheart, whether it be perusing MFP on different computers together, or watching a movie, or other things.
Oddly enough, I find cooking destressing also.0 -
I like to say obnoxious things to people on the internet.0
-
Sleep, work out, harass my birds, boyfriend and roommates.0
