    Re: Top Relaxation Tips

    I chose aromatherapy.

    The oils known to be helpful with anxiety are:

    frankinsence-used to regulate breathing
    bergamot-top anxiety queller!
    neroli-as before
    geranium-helps regulate adrenelin
    lavender-you all know that one
    roman chamomile- sedative
    clary sage- sedative
    mandarin-cheering
    rosmary-invigorating

    hope this helps

    Keeping bussy in garden, Painting anything then you get so tired you sleep well. Reiki is good but not on the list.

    Dogs. I got my first boxer dog when withdrawing from 23 year diazepam addiction. Having a bouncing wriggly puppy jumping on my bed then falling asleep with ryhmic breathing, soon regulated my breathing. The long evening walks cleared my head and helped me relax. 2 years later I bought another and the joy of watching them play together was endless. Stroking a pet can be so relaxing. For anyone who cannot cope with a dog, I recommend a cat. To hear a contented cat purr as it sits on your lap and it's long gentle breaths will soon help you relax.

    Re: Top Relaxation Tips

    I love to go to the nature reserve down the road from where I live and feed the ducks.
    Also me and me hubby have got a special place we go to called Mow Cop. Theres a layby there and you can see 4 counties from there and even see the planes taking off and landing at Manchester airport.
    What a saddo ive turned into! 5 years ago my idea of chilling would have been to go out and sing on karaoke!

    Take care
    LYNN xx
