The Tiamat and the King

The Conclusion of the Tiamat Tales

It has been said: .....
Too much driving, too much shopping, too much rushing
around, running the kids around. Do family and work
demands have you stressed out?

There are many ways to help you control stress. Here
are some unique methods I've collected.

1. Yell! But---be sure you are alone. The best place
is in the car with the windows up. Stuck in traffic?
Try it.

2. Sing. This is close to the first one. Lots of people
swear by the power of music to release tension and stress.
Sing wherever you feel comfortable. It doesn't matter
what. Just have some fun with it! I have done this on
all jobs I've had. Then I started dancing. Why not!
People thought I was crazy, but it works.

3. Do something soothing. Start or try a activity like
knitting, crochet, pottery making. Don't worry about
being good at it. It's the process that's beneficial.
Sitting still while performing repetitive movements
is calming and stabilizing for many people. It can
be time to collect your thoughts.

How To Care For Your Antique Furniture

Why is your Aunt Mabels dining room table warped?
Why is your Grandmothers sewing table discolored?
Should you use aerosol polishes on your antiques?

4. Start a garden. Even apartment-dwellers can do this.
Inside in pots, pots on the patio, pots, a small spot
in your yard. There is a little work to setting it up.
Tending plants, fruits, vegetables, flowers and
watching them grow, bloom, or yield food is rewarding.
Avid gardeners say working a garden is the best way

to control stress and worry. An added benefit is the
creation of a more beautiful, restful environment.

5. Play with a dog or cat. Experts say Pet owners have
longer lives and fewer stress symptoms than non-pet
owners. Playing with your pet provides good vibrations.
It's a form of social interaction with no pressure to meet
anyone's expectations!

6. Gaze at the stars. Many times I have gazed up at the
stars off my patio. Preferably in a still, dark, and
quiet area, sit back and observe the heavens.
The vastness of space is awesome. This way can make a
lot of problems seem very small.

Flying As A Hobby
Ask a room full of people what hobby they have and you will
get as many answers as there are people. Others will
confess that they dont have a hobby. They probably do; but
just dont label it as such. .....
