How Do You Pamper Yourself

When I feel stressed, I light a load of candles, burn some good quality incense, put on some great music, open a bottle of wine, spark up a spliff, and lie back, relax, and go into the 'zone'.

Come off it Hoodie, you go to the 'Zone' whether you're stressed or not!

Light some candles...
Put on some good quiet music..
And cuddle in my partners arms..without looking for sex, just enjoy the wonderful person he is, and reflect on my good fortune..

I also like to pamper myself to a foot massage, if you boys have never had a person touch your feet in a most sensual way, I highly recommend you give it a try.

Like most of you the candles get lit, soft music is played and a bottle of wine opened.

I then like to take the time to cook something special, lay up the table with my best china and just appreciate the calm, being me and being happy (well content in my case) with life.

If it is during the daylight hours then it is out for coffee and boy watching, always cheers me up that.

When I have the chance, I light insence, however, my residence does't allow that, so I only do it when I go home.

If I'm really in te mood, I'll go for a tan(I know, I know, no lectures, please), but more often than not, I'll just relax with a good cup of tea(loose, please, not that bagged shit).

The theatre, the theatre, the theatre, musical theatre, classical music - concerts and cd/s, and in recent years opera. Throw in there reading, with a tendency towards more obsure writers and stories/subject matters - never, best sellers, except for certain prize winners.

Last week one of the finest evenings in the theatre/opera I have ever had - a production of Manon, with two young singers, both in their late twenties who gave performances that one could just not beleive.

And later in the month, the chance to see the brilliant Cherry Jones in Doubt.

I live in a constant hail of paranoia and a drunken, hectic stupor so I don't relax much... Maybe smoking a ciggarette or drinking more... that's about it.

Hahaha....while that's funny, it also seems to be true! Chill out man, you'll learn to take things as they come and relax a bit - you know, enjoy life.

Theatre. If I wanna relax and treat myself, you'll find me within a few ft from a theatre stage, soaking it all it.

To really blow off steam I used to enjoy getting so off my face on booze and drugs that I would find myself alseep in a pool of my own vomit and blood. These days i'm more likely to put on some candles and a boring song by Katie Mellua or Norah Jones and fall into a deep sleep. God I miss drugs and booze.

I listen to jazz, cook something, and then have a delicious sweet dessert.^_^ Preferably, between myself and someone else.

What really relaxes me is giving pleasure to others. So I will turn off all my lights, light candles, turn on my fireplace and lay down a mat for my boyfriend with big pillows on it and rub oils around his body for about an hour or so until he falls asleep. And then I like to let him sleep and kiss him gently while he does and then eventually take him upstairs and cover him up in my bed. That for me is a great way to relax, seeing him trust me and mellow out....

Hot bath with candles, and music,

Then crawl up into the couch with a really good book, more candles, soft lamp light, and more great music.

This is especially nice when I am joined with someone I love (not frequent enough!).

I like to plan an evening where I can sit and read for several hours! What a treat!!

Retail Therapy!!!!

 

[pjlikesporn]

go out to a nice dinner or brunch

 

[J-23]

Sleeping in, shopping, going for long walks, reading, watching my guilty pleasure TV shows (coughOPRAHcough), eating my favorite foods, etc.

I love to relax with a hot bath, candles around the tub and good music in the background. The only thing better would be someone to share with.

Wow I guess I am just strange or something. Cause when I get stressed I don't light candles or open a bottle of wine or any of that stuff.

When I get stressed I try to find a buck out to go to and see if I can get on a few broncs, or i'll do some bull fighting. For me the adrenaline rush is relaxing, I forget about everything that is bothering me and I have no choice but to focus on the animal. SHHHHHH!! don't tell levi, he still thinks that I mow my moms grass every sunday afternoon.hahaha
