How do you get cozy and destress after a long day?

[Alister]

OMG !!!!! okay so I've always liked the flavor of green bell pepper when it was cooked in with things but I didn't start eating them until I was pregnant and then all of a sudden I just wanted them constantly! It was a weird craving I had that just stuck. Is there a random veggie or fruit you do love? :o
And gaaah I'm so sorry. That is understandable that you feel that way when watching it now.

Working out is definitely helpful!!!
Those are wonderful comfort things and I ACTUALLY HONKED OUT LOUD AT THE FISHBOWL THING sldkfjsdlfkj

hey tell me you wouldn't find getting super blazed and staring at this for an hour very soothing xDDD

the most random vegetable or fruit I love is heart of palm, I will sit and snack on entire jar in glee. Same thing with pickled pepperoncini and green olives.

If I'm in a State^TM I have a playlist of calm music that I play. I'll link it over (you need an account to see links) in a bit. But I put that on and just listen to it while sitting, and eventually I'll relax and and the TENSE will go away.

Going for walks helps me immensely when work makes me really tired most days. I also try and get lost playing my video games since I can just focus on gameplay/mechanics to ease my mind for hours.

If nothing else, I take a nap because my cats snuggle with me and them being near me is also calming enough.

Yessss the cat snuggle purr therapy. I remember reading that they purr in frequencies that calm humans? Could be misremembering!

Destressing for me is:
- snuggle/lay on top of my dog until he gets all wiggly and then we wrestle
- make the place dark and put on only nice warm and soft lighting
- Schitt's Creek or a Disney movie (typically Tangled or Moana)
- weed haha

Favorite destressy foods are probably anything that has... layers that I have to sit and really taste over time? So nice dark chocolates and teas, of which I currently loooove sobacha!

Aaaah mobile didn’t send my message through the first time ckwpzlvwp
That sounds so sweet! What kind of dog do you have???
ALSO 100000000% agree about the warm low lights! I feel like that’s so important to set a good mood.
Layered food is the best! I love all of these! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for sharing! I looked at the chill playlist and the songs are very nice. I was actually just watching Sing yesterday!

@(you need an account to see links) - He's some sort of lab mutty mix! But he tolerates being laid on until a point, where he'll switch quickly from snuggle mode to thrashing mode haha.
and yeah!! there's something about eating slowly and mindfully that always helps me feel a little calmer, and layery food is the best to make that enjoyable c:

Ooh I forgot if things are extra bad I'll usually splurge for a massage too! Nothing like some serious self care to really feel better.

I like to have a cup of tea, get warm under my blankets and have my iPad on me to read or draw I also like to use a hue light to give the room a bit of an atmosphere, it feels comforting

For me, it's a cozy sweatshirt/long sleeve tee, comfy sweatpants, socks, and a big fat blunt followed by gaming and listening to music.
