What can I do when I just need to get away for a few minutes?

Calgon, Take Me Away

Just as the commercial says, retreat to the bathroom and take a long hot shower or fragrant bubble bath. Try using fragrant aromatherapy oil or bath gel in soothing scents. If your children are older and you do not have to be concerned with their safety, try spending 20-30 minutes soaking your cares away. For a special touch, turn off the lights, light a candle, and bathe by candlelight. Indulge, you deserve it.
