Journal Question #17

How do you relax?  In ELL 3, we are reading a story about a man who likes to sit alone in the dark and smoke his pipe.  He says this relaxes him.  Have you ever tried turning everything off (cell phone, computer, iTouch, iPhone, iPod, TV, etc.) and just being quiet?  Otherwise, how do you relax?  Do you relax every day, every week, once a month - how often?  For how long do you relax: 10 minutes, an hour, a few hours, a whole day?  Share some good ideas for relaxation!

  4. Once I tried to turn off everything, because I had so much pressure at that time. It really worked. I cleared my mind and came up the idea that can solve the problem. I think I relax very often, everyday I'll have relax time after school. And it can be everything, like reading, watching a movie or chatting with friends.

  5. Of course sleep.
    Sleeping is the best way to relax. I am also used to playing the piano to relax. I want myself in a music surrounding. That will really help me relax. Listening to music is a good way as well.

  8. I'd like take a hot shower with soft music. It will help me to relax my mind and bring away the tired from my body.
    After that I will go to sleep. In the dream so that I can forget everything that bothers me!

  9. eating and running``!!!
    `when I feel pressure```I would like running ```
    `cause when I running ``I can focus my mind```
    `I don't have to think any thing else```except running``for me ``it it kind of relax```
    `and eating!```just moving my mouth ```actually```I am not hungry```just because of moving my mouth can let stop think about other things```
    ``it make me feel relax```

  16. The way that I relax is very simple, is to lying on the couch and take a nape. Sometimes, I may listen to music while I am taking a nape.I only relax in the weekends, coz I don't have a lot of time to relax in the school days.
