The beach
yoga
dinners with girlfriends
driving range with my husband
Whenever I'm having a stressful day and need to decompress and relax I turn to a few different activities to aid in my mental (and sometimes physical) health. These are a few of my favorite relaxation/unwinding/mental health activities:
yoga
long runs
going to the beach
bike rides
chats/activities with my husband, girl friends, family, etc
reading a good book
baking/cooking
I'm hoping to do lots of relaxing over the weekend. What are your favorite ways to relax?

I like to relax by hanging out with my wife. I'd be relaxing in a hospital bed if I tried that crazy yoga pose.
Val your arms are ripped . . . you go girl!!
You're clearly a yoga PRO. I just started taking classes and I'm only able to fake my way through it thanks to my balance and flexibility, courtesy my gymnastics/competitive cheer days... NO WAY could I do that craziness!
I relax by baking, napping, and reading magazines -- I just wish I had more time for it :)

Wow, I can't so that yoga stance yet... you are amazing. I also do yoga when I'm so stressed and it helps a lot.
OMG Look at your legs! I have seen this pose before and have never been able to accomplish it. I now bow before you, Yoga Princess!!!!

I enjoyed your blog. I'll come back to see what you post next!
That's you, yoga-ing? wow, I'm so impressed!
I'm easily pleased when it comes to relaxing mode these days. I can sit in a park and read or just sit, drink coffee and watch the people go by. All the better if I get to do it alone.
Thanks for stopping by! Nice blog!

One of my favorite ways to relax (especially in the winter) is to go to a sauna/turkish bath! Does wonders to my mood and skin :)
