Therapy. It's such a calm word. Whenever I hear it I think of spa days, with facial masks, manicures, pedicures, the cucumber on the eyes deal, towel on the head, lotion, etc. But, I really don't enjoy that - at all. And it makes me break out and have horrible reactions, so that's not what therapy is to me. I've found many different things that are therapeutic to me. 1.) There's dancing. Always dancing. It's not only therapeutic, but it takes away physical pain as well. 2.) There's the good old-fashioned punching bag. Nothing like blowing off steam & releasing stress like releasing a good right hook or round house kick.... without actually hurting anyone. 3.) There's the really good conversations with really good, solid friends. 4.) There's kittens. Nice kittens. 5.) There's the good movie, lights dimmed, with really good food & drink. And then there's 6.) a hot bath....... with wonderful smelling candles that make delightful smell babies....... and time with God. No agenda, nothing specific to talk about, sometimes no talking at all, but just time with God. In really, really, really warm water. Hot, you might call it. Hot water that relieves radiating nerve pain for a short while. So delightful. And much needed. You know you're doing it right when after you're done, you share the same complexion as a Flamin' Hot & Crunchy Cheeto. A lovely end to the day :)
