In case you haven’t noticed, life is stressful. Sometimes you have to grab your moments of zen any way you can get them. I try to catch little moments of zen, like the peace of a quiet bathroom with nobody else in it, or driving down the road and catching my favorite song, or perhaps just enjoying the scenery. A cold Dr. Pepper on a hot day cheers me up immensely. As you go through your day, trying not to kill anyone that makes you mad, what makes your day just a little bit better?
I like to add a bit of yoga to my morning. It makes me sound really granola, but it gives me some times to just breathe. Plus, I know I have a stronger back, and will hopefully avoid many of the aches and pains I had in my first pregnancy (even if I weigh a lot more than the first pregnancy).
A few deep breaths of fresh air(I live in the country)...a look around the cornfields...my ever-present glass of sweet tea...loving life, with all of it's ups n downs...

I also love my DP's, but I usually have to have more than 1. I also love my showers/baths. It is really the only time for peace and quiet in my life...
Smelling the air when opening a sealed package of coffee beans or walnuts, pictures of loved ones on flickr, the right song at the right time (planned or unplanned), funny text messages.
I usually feel life to be stressed on Monday Blues and it continues till Thursday.. :( But am going to gymnastics classes and dance classes to keep me relaxed and relieved on weekends..!

The fog that comes out of a really cold can of Coke (zero).
Clean sheets.
Remembering the day one of my students asked another, "Did you know that you're not a baby?" in a totally matter of fact, non snotty way (hilarious).
Milk chocolate.
Remembering that the world is beautiful and amazing. Even the parts that make you want to scream.
Chocolate-covered pretzels... as long as I don't eat the whole bag. I also like to cook and knit to help me destress, or calm down.
Cooking. Oddly. I spend so much time in virtual reality online, I find the very tactile act of cooking to be very relaxing.
Coffee. Hot. Real Cream. And an ice pack for my head, and a few minutes of quiet time to enjoy both.
