For me it’s laying in bed at 4 PM, knowing everything is tidy, and nothing else needs to be done, and listening to some music from something having a less than stellar speaker - no sound fidelity, just like you would imagine a radio to be.

I like the beach a lot, but I’ve never been able to feel truly relaxed in one as there’s always more people around and with more people more often than not comes shouting, laughing, loud music, etc. I think I associate the beach with being active and joyful, than being in zen-mode.

My idea of relaxation would be at my house, reading my books and magazines on my iPad or playing a solo TTRPG with an ice-cold carajillo or rompope cup in hand, with Portishead, Massive Attack or Nortec Collective playing in the background, during those late summer/early-mid fall months here in Mexico City in which you can hang in the garden, balcony or whatever, and the weather is just warm enough to make you feel cozy, while a breeze of fresh cold air hits you now and then, feeling the best of both worlds.

Sitting outside at dusk watching the lightening bugs come out, with a drink, and my dog at my feet.

I really enjoy playing a video game on one monitor and watching/listening to something on the second monitor. Hollow Knight + Critical Role got me through some tough times, tbh.

Its not necessarily relaxing depending on the game, but I always feel better and more relaxed afterwards.

Ahhh that sounds so nice ☺️ I’m a homebody so I recharge best at home, on my couch and the AC high so I can bundle under blankets while reading a book!

1. Low lights, stiff drink, and a good book.
2. Cool breeze, cold beer, and a hammock in the shade.
3. Hot grill, jazz, and an Arnold Palmer.

Or any combination of the above.
