lying on the couch watching tv is a good way to relax

I have reflexology every Friday & I give my feet a luxurious spa bath twice a week with Magnesium flakes & essential oils. I also love the Sanctuary spa body scrub which leaves my skin silky soft

Soak in the bath

Long lingering picnic lunch watching the birds at our favourite place. We have a bird table for on the bonnet of our car and it is mesmerising watching them. You can switch off from most things after a while doing that!

A Yankee candle lit on the windowsill, a hot bubble bath and a good book. Bliss :-)

A long relaxing soak in the bath before smothering myself in my favourite body lotion, bliss....

Listen to a meditation CD although I usually fall asleep within 5 minutes

An hour in my favourite chair with whatever book I happen to be reading. This always helps me to relax, but the hour usually turns into two.

In the summer I love nothing more than reading a book or a magazine sat in the sunshine in the garden and in the Winter I sit next to the crackling wood burner reading

hellywellyt Wed 19-Sept-18 14:50:23

By reading the next chapter of whatever book I'm reading at the time

A good book and a cup of coffee helps me relax

A nice bath with a good book and a glass of wine

Walk the dogs or do some energetic gardening.

sadpasty Wed 19-Sept-18 15:30:54

I love a daytime soak in the bath while listening to the radio or an audio book - absolute heaven

alabama Wed 19-Sept-18 15:36:28

I like to read in the bath, walk and hike.

Helsbells68 Wed 19-Sept-18 15:54:09

A soak in the bath followed by a night on the sofa with a good movie smile

samsgran2008 Wed 19-Sept-18 16:01:43

i go and sit outside in our hot tub and enjoy the oeaceful surroundings and have a glass of wine

BlueNile57 Wed 19-Sept-18 16:06:41

Ideal scenario is to have the house to myself so I can curl up on the sofa with a cup of coffee and biccies and either read my kindle or watch a box set. In the real world like others its a bath (with locked door so no interruptions) and oil burner

barboofa Wed 19-Sept-18 16:08:59

I relax by taking a bubbly bath and then going to bed with a good book.

Candelle Wed 19-Sept-18 16:11:28

Bring boring but true... I curl up in my extremely comfortable bed with a good book. Time just flits away and if I'm really tired, I'm soon ready for blissful sleep.

Clairescottshug95 Wed 19-Sept-18 16:25:44

I have recently fallen in love with Epsom Salts - a nice hot bath and cosy pjs is just the ticket smile

grannydarkhair Wed 19-Sept-18 16:26:23

Make a pot of tea, get comfy on my couch, make sure both my tablet and phone are off and read.

Eliz1973 Wed 19-Sept-18 16:28:13

Pilates and aqua aerobics

rainbowvalley Wed 19-Sept-18 16:35:48

I tend to have a bubble bath listen to favourite music and a glass of wine!

SheenaBatey123 Wed 19-Sept-18 16:41:59

I read which takes me away from all my concerns and into another world
