What do you do to release stress? 😜

I have been working in my yard and flower beds today... mulching & getting my hands in the dirt. I love it. There is something about being outside with the fresh air and sunshine with the birds chirping all around that helps me relieve some built up tension and stress. What seems to help you guys feel better? X πŸ™‚

Just find it therapeutic and very satisfying, especially when the log splits first time. Currently sitting in front of the log burner enjoying the benefits! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

To release the stress you accept the stress whatever you are doing and wherever you are.

I like to write stories as way to relieve stress. If the story is pretty good, then I animate it on my computer.

Drawing, and playing relaxing video games help me a lot. Going out for walks, or playing with my cat. Sometimes, just being in bed, and just crying, letting it all out is best.
