Mental tensions press.
Their physical manifestations settle in my neck and shoulder.
A warning.
Slow down.
Relax.
Breathe.
Take a pill?
No, a hot soak.
The ritual begins once the kids are asleep. Fill the tub.
Turn on the jets. Soothing bubbles!
Out go the lights, lit are the candles.An hour later, relief.
A good night's sleep.
Fresh perspective this morning.

Mmmmm, looks delicious. Also a ritual that would be well taken for a lot of us. I did that the other night, sans bubbles - I even have a portable whirlpooler thing - your post reminds me I should get it out.....
soak and breathe - soak and breathe
It sure felt good, Gardenia. Soak and breath - soak and breathe.
Oh, I see you had some good refreshment last night. Enjoy those soaky times. :o)
Yes, yes I did. And the soaky times were so great I think I might indulge again tonight in preparation for this weekend's work work work.
And than after I work and become sore.....well, you can figure it out.
I'm crazy!
One of my favorite things is a hot bath by candlelight. Melts the cares away. I like that you chose it over pills. There are natural alternatives to many of life's ailments. Thanks for pointing this one out Cherie.
