How to 'switch off' and de-stress after a stressful day?

[mittens0101]

Any tips on how to 'switch off' after a stressful day at work? Had an extra bad day at work yesterday and just woke up with my heart pounding after a nightmare. Tried hot milk but doesn't seem to have helped.

I wish I knew so will be watching with interest. And have an interview at 10am so have to get up

Whoops - posted in the wrong forum, night time brain strikes. Good luck with the interview Sharpkat, hope it goes well

I have a hypnosis trance on my phone which sends me to sleep. Worth a try ?

I too am flapping and stressing and feeling sick over work so sorry no helpful suggestions either !
My only saving grace is mat leave starting next month.
Could you try that open ?!

I mean o p not open
Not really worked out how to use a kindle properly

Great idea Alibaba, I'll give it a try.

Think I will cheshireding, sounds like it might work!

I use music on my mp3 at the end of the working day. As soon as I'm out the office door it goes on, loud. I choose loud and bouncy dance tunes.

It works for me to the point where I forget about work so completely that I have to write notes each day to remind me what I need to do the next day!
