Lie on the sofa cuddling my dog whilst reading a good book.

Work on a really difficult Sudoku.

I d love this for my daughter who doesn’t have the easiest of times

I either go for a walk or a cycle ride if the weather allows or I do my family tree. From being adopted and having no knowledge of my family with a bit of research I now have family all over the USA as well as the UK . Can be distracted for hours trying to make sure I have the right links.

After working hard at an exercise class (my current favourite is Kettlercise), I like to enjoy a hot shower. Once my hair is dried and I’m wearing comfortable clothes, I like to curl up by a log fire and read a gripping psychological thriller. A glass of wine at the weekend is a bonus, otherwise a mug of coffee is welcomed. Bliss.

A bath, a book, some bubbles and des petit bisous (from French grandchildren)!

Quality time with the family playing board games!!!

A hot bath and a good film or drama on TV with my husband who is my rock

Put my feet up with a good book and a glass of wine, bliss.

Love a hot, relaxing bath, nice music and doing some comps!

I go to a yoga class or tai chi class.

Both very relaxing.
Or read the newspaper with feet up.

I have trouble allowing myself to relax, but I have found something that helps: I set up my iPad on a table next to the bath and watch something relaxing while I soak. Current favourites are 'Who do you think you are?' and 'Escape to the country'. Long, cosy programmes, for long, cosy evenings in the bath!

I enjoy a walk outside to blow away any cobwebs. Then home for a cwtch up on my favourite chair with a good book and my journal.

A trip to the spa with my daughter when I can

A good book, a strong coffee and a foot soak.

A good book ( well Kindle actually) lying in the sun ideally - failing that a good book & a long soak in the bath with a glass or 2 of wine!

Have a glass of Asti and run a lovely warm bath. Then have a read in bed or Watch a film in bed from the bedroom tv.

Wine or whisky, classical music on the sound system, read a book. A scented candle would be a nice addition...

a glass of red...or white... or rose...

I light a scented candle and go through the photo albums of my children and grandchildren, including some of the scan pictures taken when the grandchildren were the size of a plum - and realise how lucky I am to have such wonderful people big and small in my life. It's very therapeutic.

A good book or a game on my phone

long soak in the bath.cuddle up on sofa with my dog teddy catch up tv of my choice and a few drinks and nice nibbles

Listen to the radio and do a jigsaw. Really relaxing!

Go for a walk, hail rain, sun or snow ?
