My recipes
Calming nervesTake a long deep breathe, a short walk and visualizing a happy scene from the past completely unrelated to the present crisis in great detail.
Fighting stress
Check out the situation rationally, understand what is there that I can do to better it, do it, send up a quick prayer and then trust in God to deliver me from the problem.
Feeling loved
Re-reading old mails from friends and lovers.
Relaxation
A nice book, munchies, a tall chilled drink, mountains in the horizon and a nice tummy to rest my head on.
Feeling low
A quick bout of shopping for stuff,
could be as mundane as daily groceries just remember to pick up one or two feel good things (chocolates work for me).
Ending a going nowhere argument with the partner
A tight body-enveloping hug and a long kiss
A tight body-enveloping hug and a long kiss
These are my recipes...what about yours?

And as for the previous one, I agree totally that a holy book is one which has a deep effect on the self.
Hot oil hair massage works like magic to relief stress!!!

Good recipes and I try them with success every time. It seems that you have a positive approach to life. But I tell you only one thing few times exceptions do happen and discard exceptions as they are unruly.
Pradip: i dont have much else than that positive approach...hehehe
