Making Love To Yourself....

....no i'm not talking about whipping out the sex toys...i'm talking about, what do you do when you want to pamper yourself???

 

I start out by taking a long hot bath. If you don't have a whirlpool, make the water as hot as possible and keep the warm water running while inside...just like a jaccuzzi. I put my scented candles in my room, so it will be smelling good when I enter the room. Then, I lotion up or oil down with my favorite scent and put on some lingerie and just relax.

 

Well I take a long bath with hot water also.. wash my hair and scrub skin with a nice cleanser that leaves the skin soft and smooth, I also
light some aromatic candles, specially vanilla scent all over my room and
bathroom... listen to soft music (chillout specially) and then lay down
for some time in the dark until i feel completely relaxed and ready to
go back to reality lol.

 

nothing like sitting in some fuzzy jammies with a pint of Ben & Jerry's Preferably with a good chick flick on like Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail, etc.

 

OMG! You too? I love sitting in my blue/green flannel pjs and eating ben and jerry's while watching movies...How odd!

 

Yep, I love me some fleece or flannel jammies. Chocolate Fudge Brownie baby. mmmmmmmmmmm

 

Chubby Hubby is one of my favourites, or peanut butter cookie

 

I take a nice, hot bath, get into some cozy jammies afterwards, and then crawl into bed with a good book. Total relaxation for me.

 

Sounds great!!! What type of books do you read for relaxation?

 

That's what I do as well. Or read a book instead of watching a movie.

 

I miss warm flannel jammies. *sigh* Can't wear them when you get hot flashes. I have to wear summer jammies all year now.

When I'm an old lady, maybe. I can wear comfy jammies again.

 

Anything really, I love reading in general. But before bed, I usually like to read something light.

 

Hmm....
Honestly for me, it's just sitting down for hours on end with a paint brush, some paints, and a big ol' canvas. Nothing is more relaxing or spirit lifting than painting, for me.

Other than that though, we have this cool whirlpool tub, that I like to take bubble baths in with the lights off and candles lit, and just lay back and let my mind sort of float off...

Also, petting my kitty He makes me smile every single time I see his face, regardless of shitty I feel

 

P.S.

I add to my list of things with the best day I've ever had:
Going to the beach and rolling in the sand with my boyfriend, while having a picnic, coming back to veg out all day/night long while playing guitar in between watching movies, eating delicious vegan food, and making love [to him] :-D

 

Just play the music really,really,really loud and lay down on the grownd dreaming of something....that`s relaxation for me!

 

Drives my husband crazy b/c he can't have anyone over while I'm relaxing. I hang out in my papasan chair in my undies, w/ a book and a mug of spearmint tea. Absolute bliss!
