How do you decompress after a long week?

I'll start with a nice pint of beer.

  • For me sport is the best way to decompress myself. Especially "Cardio" sport like Running, Tennis, Swimming, etc. At the end of the course, you can feel the consequences and you'll never be angry for long hours, whatever happens

  • I go to the water side or a park and watch a few YouTube videos

  • I would wish always to summon unconditionwaahl bendiness unto muh person.

    This way, you flexibyool enough to wangle into gaps/opportunities without fallin' ovah in the store while you dreamin' 'bout stuffs.

    You gotta see the compression comin', I guess -- an' skip wilfully aside.

    So here's a Yogah exercise for evrywan.

    It is called ZERO ANIMYOOL IMAGRY BUT HEY.

    Allya need is a LIT CANDLE an' 100% COTTON UNDAHGARMENTS.

    Hey, so here's how it goes ...

    You LAY DOWN on yuh YOGA MAT, you LIGHT THE CANDLE an' schlumpf it all balanced an' level in yr NAVEL (like you were dowin' Hopi Ears on sumone, but it is like yr abdomen) ...

    an' thenya trust yusself to FALL ASLEEP without INCINERATIN' YR OWN TITS or DOWIN' TO YR BUILDIN' what Leonardo Di Caprio did to the gal in the swim pool c/o a flamethrowah in that Quaranteeno movie from whenevah.

    Tellya, I a goldmine for decompression secrets ...
  • I guess it depends on what one is decompressing from. Imagine the teens just released after two weeks in captivity with Hamas...or the person doing chemo...or a car accident which takes life.

    So, I use PERSPECTIVE to decompress, that and Alan and JB, IT'S 5 O'CLOCK SOMEWHERE.

    Having a bad week at work, well... at least one has a job.

    Added P.S. I see Tik Tok is aflame with the tragic woes of a recent grad facing her gawd awful 40 hour work week...the poor thing doesn't have time to decompress.

    And after further thought...maybe she is right, the whole 40 hour work week is outdated...thank goodness I found Entrepreneurship at a young age, where 60 hour work weeks were fun.

  • I heat up some chili. After adding a bunch of differen seasonings.Then eat tortilla chips and drink water as I eat the chili.

    Or I'll go with some clam chowder and then have a beer. Then make sure to break out the Boston accent and tell any near me that I'm eating Clam chowdah and drinking a beach. I really throw people off when I tell them it's wicked pissah.


    If I want entertainment with my decompression I can just walk to downtown Las Vegas and hang out on freemont street.

  • For employees, that question gets a response in line with "take a trip" or "go for a swim to unwind".

    But I've never wanted to unwind.

    Entrepreneurs feed off the pressure, the demands they put on themselves.

    Champion bodybuilders workout so hard they pass out or throw up. How do they unwind? They don't. They can't wait until the next grueling workout.

    Successful business owners look forward to Monday after a hard week. I know I always did.

  • After a long and hectic week, I decompress by dedicating time to self-care. I usually start with a relaxing bath or a long walk in nature, allowing me to clear my mind and unwind. I also love to indulge in a good book, watch a favorite TV show, or practice some mindfulness and meditation to center myself. Spending quality time with loved ones, whether it's a dinner with friends or a cozy evening with family, helps me recharge and find balance. Additionally, I like to plan some leisure activities for the weekend, whether it's trying a new hobby, exploring a new place, or simply taking a day to rest and rejuvenate.

  • For me, sports are the ultimate way to decompress, especially cardiovascular activities like running, tennis, and swimming. After a session, you can feel the positive effects, ensuring that whatever happens, you won't be harboring anger for long hours.

  • This is a good time to take a walk, practice yoga, read a book or simply lay down. Light physical activity, a hot bath or shower and an outfit change into comfortable clothes can all also help you to relax and unwind.

    • Hey, Tech Slooshinscape!

      Any ways we can multitask on these seemingly separate optschwaahns like the good folk of Before We Were Born dreamt 'bout breathin' an' retainin' their own teeth past like 22?

      Evry wish list is a definitive This Twist if'n you can supply.

      rn I gtg with throwin' on my yoga pants an' lyin' down with a book in the tub while water from above splashes 'pon Moi.

      But if'n I walk out anyplace, natchrlly I lose alla these advantages.

      Mebbe a longah tub would help.

      Plus also a showah splashes out bettah.

      Yeah ... with mebbe a 20' lahng tub, water-sheilded poetry, yoga pants an' high kicks, back an' forth, back an' forth, like sum kinda monumentally sensorily deprived hamstah, I could max out on the perfect union of all things practicyool an spirityool.

      Jus' gotta knock muh bathroom into the apartment next door, an' yanno ...

      Didja know spoonbills can be trained to toss yogurt bombs direct from their beaks?

      Uh huh, it is so troo.

      2 key things you gotta do:

      1) Seal the yogurt in jelly so's it CONTAINED but BURST ON IMPACT.

      2) Train yr Spoonbill.

      Aw, yeah, so prolly you need an accomplice to PLACE the yogurt bomb on the Spoonbill's beak while you whistle the necessary birdsy toon of command.

      Thenya jus' continyoo lyin' down nekkid while you bombed by natyoore-flung yogurt treats.

      Beats regulah massage, tellya.

  • yes the same a nice cold one
  • After a long week, I find relaxation in unwinding activities such as reading a good book, taking a nature walk, or enjoying a leisurely cup of tea. Engaging in these calming pursuits helps me clear my mind and recharge for the upcoming week.
    • [ 2 ] Thanks
  • For me it's delicious food and good movies. Entertainment is how I best decompress to give my mind a rest from thinking about work related things.

  • Me typically watch a movie, sometimes at a theater sometimes stream and buy some takeaway.

    And tend to search for hard to find Youtube 80's music video's every night although not easy with YT excessive ad's.
  • In order not to wait for the weekend, we need to relax a little during the week: sports, coffee with friends or a breakfast meeting, a short walk. It makes it easier to get through the weekend. And on weekends, I spend 100% of my time outdoors, with friends, and traveling. Alcohol is sometimes part of the plan, but it's better without it.
  • Eat ice cream like a 2 year old which means I get my t-shirt all dirty while watching kids cartoons.

  • I like to go to the Onsen which is a Japanese style bath house - with a cold plunge and steam/sauna. But I don't like to do it exactly on the weekends as that's when the 9-5 normies crowd up the place. We have the privilege of setting our own days off as remote / independent professionals, I like Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
  • Try a new recipe. Or cook one of kids favorite dishes.
    Watch a movie.
    Get a real Thai massage.
    Try a new restaurant or a cafe.
    Anything relaxing works for me.
  • What is this decompressing thing you're talking about?


  • For me - music
  • For me, I relax by following my hobbies like writing articles, playing outdoor sport and meditation.
  • Unwind after a long week by embracing relaxation. Set aside time for a favorite hobby, a soothing bath, or a quiet moment with a book. Let go of stress and recharge your mind and body. Breathe deeply, savor the calm, and get ready to start the new week refreshed.
  • Slayin' perceived evil is now an optschwaaahn, seems.

    Bcs let's face it, when Zaaaahmbie hordes could kinda suck out yubbrayins while you 'laxin in the tub jus' bcs you left the windah open ... what is a gal evin to do?

    Could be I figure a skyscrapah TOP TEN "slay evil" stuffs, kinda thing.

    Or mebbe I gonna jus' joos out on muh natchrl bonhomie don't evah gonna slay nowan outsidea metaphor.




    As a trooly mortal Sagittarian shitspoutah, I would counsel one an' all to be speshly slective regardin' BEACONS.

    Herein is whereya burned as a heretic or blazed out to incinerate 'pon touch.

    In like evin the same actschwl instant.

    I a fiyah person.

    So I git where we at rn.

    "Alla yr incendiaries are belong to Gemini."

    That is why "decompress" is mebbe no longah the active state it once seemed.

    Before what hellhole are you prepared to uncoil?

    Dontchya gaht bettah than that?
