How do you relax?

Sometimes I will sit and think
At other times just sit
Relaxing’s not so difficult
Just find the time to stop.
I’ll maybe find a thing to watch
Or fiddle with my phone.
I’ll listen to an audio book
Or have the radio on.
A favourite place the garden room
I’ll maybe watch the birds
Or simply watch the grass grow
And drink in all the flowers.
I listen to my body
And if I’m really tired
I’ll try to put my feet up
And have a little sleep.
At night there is no problem
I’m early to my bed
I simply lay my head down
And then I’m fast asleep.
It’s not that I’m not active
I almost always am
But finding time to sit and rest‘s
Important to the plan.
I do a lot of exercise
And love to work the soil
Those things can relax me too
But you can’t beat sitting down.
I appreciate the garden not only for relaxation, but also because I can grow some vegetables there and find great joy.

Hi – were lucky enough to have a garden and a separate allotment where we grow masses of fruit and veg. More than we can eat in fact. Give a lot of it away. So I spend lots of time gardening and yes, it is relaxing.
