Bought an app a month or two ago to force myself to get into the habit. Working great.

Details?

I meditate when I'm sleeping.

I am so laid back and non-stressed that there's very little that actually bothers me. And when I do get stressed, I like to take my motorcycle out and go for a ride. It really helps to clear my head. It takes me away from the real world and forces me to focus on the here and now. Even if it's just a quick 30 minute ride, it has the same calming effect on me as meditation does. For those stressful days at work, I'll take my bike out during lunch for a quick ride.

Of course that's a tad bit difficult now that the bike is in the shop, so now I drive my truck and turn the music up and sing along with it. The singing makes me feel good on the inside. Whether I'm singing along with Billy Currington, or screaming along with Stonesour. It helps vent the frustrations and I feel good when I arrive back.

Riding and Running do this for me.

re: Riding: It's weird, but, at the barn as soon as I get out of the truck the stress is like pushed out of me. Like, it knows it's not allowed at the barn. It's the weirdest feeling, but everything is OK at the barn. Like everything.

& when I head out, I take some of that OK with me every time. It's the cheapest therapy in the world.

Running doesn't really clear my head. I get so bored running that I end up thinking about the things that bother me. I need something to stimulate my brain... basically preoccupy it to let the stress pass.

Easy.... Kiko!

I was going to say the same thing about Dom with me. Very easy if I think of him

 

[Petunia]

I usually do this to those that stand in my way

Omg that's too cute and funny

Sammie is very motivational. I think because of chronic illness I'm used to being motivated in the face of adversity. Every time I'm motivated it is a challenge, but I have to live, you know? So I just do stuff. It's easier with Sammie because I have such an amazing reason to get off my butt.
