Good one, though I rarely volunteer to do it.

I have always found gardening quite theraputic - cutting the hedge or watering plants.

Exercise is also good: going running or swimming seems to clear my head.

Firstly, I have to get alone or I will be snappy!

I will most likely not be able to read until I get my thoughts out on paper or in a word document so that my mind won't be thinking itself in circles.

After everything is out, I will read (sometimes scriptures, sometimes not), pray, call a friend or find one online to chat with.

Oh, and snack!!! I try to limit this one, but I love salt and sugar when I'm stressed!

I paint or draw (watercolor, oil pastels) when I am stressed but have a bit of free time. Its terribly relaxing and I feel like it isnt a waste of time like when I watch tv. I also enjoy it because I'm not very good, so I just have fun playing with colors and just making a picture that I think is pretty. I also usually try to use colors that reflect my moods. This way, I can look back at all my pictures and remember the good and bad times. And remember how God has always pulled me though
