PLAY in The DIRT.....

Plants and Flowers-
Pretty to look at...... plus they clean the air ( good for YOU).

My RELAXATION tip for today:

Get some pretty plants/ flowers from the nursery and start getting your hands dirty!

If it's cold outside- get yourself some potting soil,newspaper, pots and great plants- start your SPRING garden inside.

It will lift your spirits, and you will have something beautiful to look at when you are finished !

If you are lucky and live somewhere warm- go putter in the yard for a bit. It is a great stress reliever !

We can't make SPRING come any faster- but playing in some dirt will be fun in the meantime :)

Vacation..... in Your Mind!

Vacation.........

Sometimes it's the only time we ever really RELAX ! 

Today I think we should all pretend to be on vacation!

Rent movies, buy lots of magazines, play games :)
Forget about cleaning the HOUSE and indulge in a little something fun !!

Maybe you will actually feel refreshed- just from doing something

un- inportant  :)   Try it !

A Little Bubble Bath Goes a LONG Way!

Bubble Bath

Aroma therapy works wonders! A little sudsy warm water, yummy smells- and you can just feel the day's worries slip away :)

It doesn't have to take long- and preferably take a bubble bath somewhat close to your bedtime. It is one of life's little LUXURIES, and it's almost FREE!

Remember taking care of you helps you take of others :) So, grab your towel and robe- Lather up and BREATHE in the relaxation.........The Twenty Minute Gift

The Power of a Mini-NAP

Mini Naps - A fantastic way to refresh and REVIVE your tired eyes :)

OPPORTUNITY #1)
You know, when your waiting for the kids to come out of  SCHOOL- Close your eyes for short intervals ( hint count to 10, and do it again)  envision yourself somewhere tropical and   AWAY !!                      
                                     OPPORTUNITY #2)
                                    The doctor is keeping you waiting again :(
don't be mad-  close your eyes,  for a few seconds and enjoy the time instead of  FRETTING !

See- SUPER easy !! You can have a NAP  ........ YAY for MINI-NAPS
