Welcome!
This is a community for sharing information about ways to relax and reduce the negative effects of stress in our lives. We can't always change the stresses that we're exposed to, but we can learn to better deal with them through various relaxation techniques. The community's interests list hints at some of the more specific things we might talk about.
This information may be of particular interest to those of us who struggle to manage anxiety, especially those with anxiety disorders. Learning to relax can be an integral part of coping with and healing from these often destructive illnesses.
Due to problems with spam, membership is currently moderated. You may still apply to become a member, however. Even if you don't plan on posting, it's still recommended that you join the community so that you can see any entries that might be posted as friends-only. Please introduce yourself -- tell us why you're here, and let us know what helps you to relax, or what specifically you'd like help with.
A few guidelines: please keep posts on topic. Below are links that will take you to all past entries sorted by subtopics. These lists utilize LiveJournal's tags system. You may assign any of the applicable existing tags to your post, but this is not required.
You're welcome to converse freely (but respectfully, of course) in comments, but if you think that something might be better suited to your own journal, that instinct is probably correct. Please use LJ-cuts for particularly long entries. (Not sure how to do this? You can find instructions here.) All advertisements are prohibited and will be deleted as soon as possible.
Questions? Concerns? Please feel free to e-mail me.
Thanks,
