It's when your stress level skyrockets until it explodes your mind and you can't do anything but stare into space, with drool hanging from your lip.
At these times it's best to think about all the things you like to do to relax, even if you can't actually do them at that very moment.
Here's my list:
1. Snuggle under big fluffy covers. There's no law against snuggling with yourself!
2. Smoke 'em if you got 'em. I love smoking hookah (flavored tobacco). It is fun and relaxing to practice blowing those perfect little "o" smoke rings.
3. Take a bath. No time for that? Take a shower. Trust me, you'll feel better. There's something about the freshness you feel from being warm, clean, and smooth. Sometimes it feels like the shower is washing away all the negativity of the day...
4. De-clutter your immediate area. If you have a cluttered home, you have a cluttered brain. Maybe you have been too stressed to clean the house, instead just organize the area you'd like to relax in. That way your mind can focus on... nothing instead of focusing on that pile of unopened mail on the floor.
5. Watch a Disney movie. Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, or The Little Mermaid. Remind yourself of a time when the only thing on your mind were your Legos.
And this is just the short list of what I do to relax. What do you do?
