So, yeah.
I was thinking of this as I was cleaning.
Weird, huh?

Anyway, relaxation is a thing we all come across in various ways, yet there is only ONE way that truly relaxes us.

I want to know what relaxes YOU.
Why?
Because I'm sharing with YOU what relaxes ME.

There are, in fact, several things that relax me.
I'll share them in the way I have found them, from most effective to least.

Number one: This is the most effective to me, for some odd reason.
A hot bath, while listening to Claude DeBussy, Jim Brickman, and Yiruma amaze me on piano.
But, it has to be in a certain way.
I HAVE to have this stuff in my bath, like these salt things that smell like lavender.
And the music can't be LOUD. Enough where you can still BARELY hear it under water.
And I NEED to hear Clair de Lune once.
Hahhah!
Its also better if I'm laying on my stomach. with my nose just above the water, and my legs bent upward.
Oh, and my hair has to be down.
Its like I'm losing all confinements for those few moments.
Its also nice when I hear Clair de Lune, River Flows in You, Angel Eyes, and Beautiful mind.
Those four songs are NEEDED.

Okay.

Number two: Sitting in a corner, legs flat, reading a book, and listening to music.
Yes, it HAS to be a corner. with the walls, or whatever around me like that, it feels like someone is there with you, holding you and watching you read.
...It just comforts me.
>///<

Continuing on.

Number three: Sitting in a corner, curled in a ball, reading a book and listening to music.
Same thing, except curled in a ball.
Its nice when I feel anxious about the book.

Number four: Laying on the floor, on my stomach, drawing or reading.
I dunno why. This just helps A LOT.

Number five: Laying with my dog, reading.
This is just nice. I have NO clue why, though. And it can be any of my dogs.
Buffy, Kringles, Pookie, Costello, Bella, and Rags. They all make this perfect.
Though, I perfer Kringles and 'Stello, only because they actually stay there, even though its Kringles, more than 'Stello.

Number six: This is the last one. Laying on my bed, with or without sheets, drawing or reading, with or without music.
This is last because I ALWAYS fall asleep. Gr. ANd its usually on top of all the stuff I was using. One time I fell asleep with my face in the book Twilight. I woke up and I saw "Bella, can you hear me? You're going to be okay Bella. I love you."
OR when I fell asleep while drawing.
I woke up with pencil smudged on my face and arms, with the pencil still in my hand, pressing against the paper.

So, yeah. These things just relax me.
A LOT.
Its just wonderful.


When I'm mad, though, the only thing that helps is cleaning...
It gives me something else to be pissed about, and then I'm just calm afterwords.
Still kinda mad, but its definitely under control.
XD

So, yeah.
I'm off to read Eclipse, but I'll be here.
Message me, eh?
