    I am an Angry Bird addict.

    I play at nap time and sometimes when we are all outside.

    I also make a huge point of leaving my work at work.

    Come closing time, my mind and thoughts are closed to work and anything related.

    It is a learning curve and you definitely have to train yourself to be in that mind frame but it works for me and can be my saving grace at times.

      exercise
      hiking with my dogs
      reading
      turning the music on and DANCING...with or without the kids
      turning on classical music, dimming the lights, closing my eyes and just BEING.

      Lots of stuff.

      But, my new love is Stand Up Paddle Boarding. Hubby, son and I are going after work today to the lake....they are taking the kayaks, I am taking the SUP. There is nothing like the feeling of gliding across the water while standing up......it feels like walking on water and is SO relaxing. happyface

        Re. simple things during the day....

        a cup of coffee on the deck with a magazine/article or good book during naptime

        the classical music with dimmed lights is something I do with the kids when it gets too loud in the atmosphere

        dancing is something I do with the kids too....and no, not always to "their" music

        deep breathing exercises

        SINGING..........REALLY LOUD!!!!!!


        pillow.....face....scream....
