All depends, many options. Going for a walk before night time. Smoking cigarettes, wacthing history or documentary programs, running scales and bass patterns,chord sessions, and musically ideas by mind. Figuring out chess problems or going through miniature games by mind. etc. Praying for myself and others before I close my eyes.
 
i just watched Tom and Jerry cartoons.like a kid...its so funny,,,,reminds me that there is a lot of good things in life,to relax and chill out.. and it helps to make make things lighter......^_^
 
Time in front of the TV does it for me, like finding a favorite old movie, but M*A*S*H* reruns are the best. (or Cheers or House), with a Diet Pepsi and bag of tortilla chips. I always check out the Christian TV channels first, some of the programming can really re-energize me, lift my spirit and mood, some not so much.

I think it's the being entertained as opposed to having to do it for myself; no real thinking, no figuring out, just watch and enjoy.
 
Painting.....yep.....painting is somehow very relaxing for me.
 
To relax, I love listening to instrumental piano versions of hymns. In the video below I used the piano version of the hymn "Breathe On Me, Breath of God" performed by Phillip Keveren. For the video itself I used Jonah's prayer. I hope it can relax others.

The orthodox Jews say the way they honor the Sabbath is absolutely relaxing, especially the housewives. I've tried but in the gentile world we live in I find it almost impossible.

They work hard all week long, and prepare for the day of rest by doing all day to day work ahead of time. On that day they just let God take over and do nothing, some won't even turn on a light switch. They visit, eat, relax and enjoy only.
