I make a salt scrub with a combination of salt and my favorite oil and fragrance and scrub myself with it. Then rinse off in the shower. After the shower I prop my feet up and read a good book.
My relaxation tip – turn on the iPod and tune out the rest of the world.
I work out at the gym to help relieve stress and energy. For me, it’s relaxing. I also am a tea drinker so a nice hot cup of tea is also a great way to just slow down a bit.
I have started a “relaxation by association” routine. Every time I get my full blown relaxation on, I use lavender body lotion. During the times that I don’t have time to soak in a tub and read a good book, I use that lotion. The scent helps me associate being relaxed. It helps
My relaxing tip is to take a bath in the dark with only candles lighting the room! That is so relaxing and even better is you play some classical music, too! Thank you so much for doing this giveaway for us!

That sounds great. I love to crawl under the covers with a good book.
I know it is bad, but my favorite relaxing thing to do is lay out in the sun with my ipod and a good magazine. Or in the winter curl up with a blanket and a cup of hot chocolate.
After a long day I like the sit in the LazyBoy and do Sudoku puzzles and eat chocolate.
A nice long hot bath, maybe a cup of tea some scented candles and a good book is a way I like to relax.

Don’t throw away those green tea tea bags! Let them cool to room temperature and swipe under your eyes for a refreshing tightener/toner! Sounds silly but try it once and you’ll see.

I wait until I take my son to school for my coffee and breakfast so I don’t have to rush. I’ve also started walking on the beach.
Putting slices of thin cucumbers over my eyes and keeping them on there for a few minutes always rejuvenates my eyes.

Relaxation? What is that? I have 3 kids, so just getting to go to Wal-Mart by myself is my escape to relaxation land.
I like to drink tea in the bathtub to relax.
One thing I let myself indulge in and spend money on is my favorite kinds of tea. Then every night before bed, I take at least 15-30 minutes to have a glass of tea while reading or watching my favorite tv show. Now anytime I need to relax and only have a minute all i have to do is get a cup of tea and I’m immediately taken back to that time of peace and relaxation.
My favorite relaxation tip: Instead of using nap time to catch up on cleaning, I try to use it to relax. Sit down with a good book, take a nice bubble bath, etc. I can clean any time! Thanks for the giveaway!

To relax go to a quiet room and burn a lavender candle. I also like to read a fun book that always relaxes me.
