Relaxing takes many forms for me

How do you relax?

One of the things that I love doing the most to relax is reading. I read all sorts of things from historical and crime fiction to history, gardening books and books on sewing.

This leads nicely on to another hobby I do to relax. I sew some of my own clothes and I find this relaxing whilst also being productive in some way as I find it hard to sit still for too long!

I also garden for relaxation. Even though I garden for a living, being able to grow the plants that I want to grow and have them put exactly where I want is really enjoyable. I also get to eat the fruit and veg that I grow which is always tastier than produce bought at the supermarket.

Spending time with my family and friends is also really good fun, although my family live overseas so I don’t see them very often.
