Hello my fellow bulls,

I know people say we tend to be lazy at times. And even though this is true, when we set our mind to something, we commit to it till we reach the goal. And our work ethic is on point.

However, when we focus too much, we tend to stress and sometimes hold it in since we don't like pity or sympathy from anyone and are prideful to seek help to de-stress. Well at least for me anyways.

When you're stressed or in a funk from having too much on your plate, what do you do that you can always count on to de-stress without breaking the bank? lol

For me, a long warm bath with a stress relief candle from Bath & Body Works lit will help, sometimes music will help me too. If worse comes to worse, I'll talk a little about my problems with a significant other or best friend.

Anyone else can respond. I was just curious on what other Tauruses do.

For me, when I’m overly stressed I need to be alone and I withdraw from people. Everyone including family and friends. I’ve found that being outside really helps like gardening, walking in the woods or going hiking helps calm me down or bring my stress level down. It’s like earth is my battery recharger lol

I'll have to add baths haha. For me it's meditation, with calming music. Anything competitive sports wise too. Lifting weights if you got a set, or just get jump ropes price ain't bad for any of those. Reading books and a cup of tea or iced tea.

I was gonna say the same! I love baths, and all spa-related treatments.

If you can afford to go to a cheaper Korean bath house, those are REALLLY relaxing. You have to get naked to go in though 😛

Massages, candles, incense, baths, and my personal gem... ASMR sleep-guide videos are wonderful. ^^

I've noticed that cleaning and organizing makes me kind of chill out, and at the same time I'm being productive, so I end up feeling good about myself and relieved that I got something done 😛.

I'll have to research on those Korean bath houses to see if they have those around my area. I can afford it, was just curious what people do when they don't want to break their budgets and whatnot. I'll definitely look into ASMR sleep guide videos, thanks! 🙂
