Most of us are always doing something for others and, often neglecting our own needs. From time to time I will actually go shopping for ME, gey my hair done, get a pedicure, and eat lunch with a friend. Doesn't take a lot to please me so, pampering is never overboard. What do you do for yourself?

i agree with you leeapollo, that that is indeed a fine way to be relaxing. taking a good throw of all those worries and stresses is the only way that one can relax. by the way that you talk about how you do it, makes me feel that you are truly having such a good time enjoying the relaxation hours of your life. have a good day and best of luck all the way, friend.

We need to do something for ourselves sometimes. It feels really good when you are able to do just what you want and not feel anything less that pure enjoyment. I make it a point to treat myself at least once a month for the 2009 year!!

hi mzkuma, i like your question. how do i pamper ourselves, you are right sometimes we do a lot of things for others. we serve for others in our work. we work for our families, we sometimes forgot to give ourselves something that will make us feel good. i am guilty at this sense. sometimes i forgot to treat myself for all day work. if i got time and enough money i usually treat myself for a bar of chocolate. sometimes i eat in a lot and if have much time i go malling and shopping something for myself. i am not doing this very often i do this like once a month or every other month. now i am making it a habit to give something to myself. a reward for doing a job!

You're correct Roselyn. For me it's a forced habit, but a good one. I can't count how many times I had items in the buggy for me and put them back to get something I wanted the children or my husband to have. Funny thing is, he gave me the money for me to shop for myself.

hi mzkuma, thank you for making my posts the best one. your right sometimes we forgot to pamper ourselves and should not be like that. we have to be reminded that ourselves also need some relaxation or rewards for a job well done. i guess enough rest can be a good pampering technique if assuming that money is not enough!

i am quite corny. my most relaxing moments, i spend with my love ones. i am happiest and most relaxed whenever i am sharing happy conversations with my children. whenever i am away from them, i share happy moments with my brothers and sisters. the worst times will be when i have to battle the days alone at the farm. when i had animals around there, no problem for i talk to the animals. now that i have become so mobile, i cannot afford to have animals at the farm anymore. now, that leaves me with the plants and trees only. hahaha. do you think that i am only kidding? oh, no. i really talk to my plants and trees. it makes them feel good and become healthy.

Nothing corny about what you enjoy Trinidad. That is the key. Do what makes you feel good and pampered. Continue to enjoy yourself by spending time doing what makes you feel pampered.

When I pamper myself I normally take a nice hot shower,put a face mask on,moisturize my hair and body,do my nails and watch a good movie with a hot cup of tea.

It's hard to pamper yourself and be completely relaxed but we still manage to do it sometimes don't we. To be really pampered I like to soak in a hot tub or something like that. I like to drink tea and basically do anything that will put me into deep relaxation. I'm also pampered by my wonderful girlfriend whenever I see her beautiful face.

That was a sweet thing to say about your girlfriend Jam. And yes, it is hard to get into that complete relaxed mode.

yeah, sounds good..just to read it here..!!...pamper yourself.. I usually relax by going in for a pedicure..I guess that's because feet are the most sensitive part...they get tired the most..so that is real relaxation for me..

I would either go for a facial and then a back massage - which is very relaxing and soothing. Or I would go to the bookstores and spend half the day browsing and buying to my heart's delight!
