r/Relax

Like millions of us, I finally found solace in Her. Maybe She is too kind, too accepting of everyone. And She pours abundance without question, without judgement.

Hey redditors! I want you to know that if you need someone to hear you out, someone to tell you you’re not crazy or sensitive, or if you feel drawn to sharing your story and experiences, this is the place!!! 💛
I felt empowered to start sharing my story, so you can find that post in r/growfromtrauma as well as strategies I have learned to cope. I kinda just felt a pull, like it was the right time for me. Now, I want to post all the therapy concepts I learn here that I find useful and the goal is to have this subreddit be one big collection of people’s experiences and tips! Please share this with people you think would benefit or be interested if you’re comfortable sharing.
Remember, you will heal, even if healing means achieving just stability. That stability becomes your new normal, and the ups and downs will smooth out. The jumps will get smaller and smaller. You will heal 💛

Not even joking, taking a warm bath before sleep after a long and tiring day has become one of the things I look forward to the most lately.

It completely relaxes the body and quiets the brain for a bit instead of just going straight from stress into bed.

And the funny thing is, you don’t even need an actual bathtub at home anymore. I bought one of those foldable bathtubs and I’m literally using one now while writing this lol.

After exhausting days it genuinely feels like a small luxury that resets your whole mood and for the next day.

Try it out and let me know if Im wrong

For some reason, warm lighting, clean sheets, and eucalyptus scents instantly calm my brain after stressful days. 😂 Curious what small comforting things help other people unwind fast.
