• I'm seriously bad at relaxing, I think I just can't do it. Only thing I do when I'm overworked is watch TV, but that doesn't relax me either... Also I get fed up by it pretty fast.

    So any ideas and experiences would be greatly appreciated

    Hmm, sadly computer games have an even worse effect on me then telly. They tend to make me depressed. But thanks for sharing :-)


  • @lego-batman I watch YouTube often, there’re loads of entertaining and relaxing videos to choose from. I eat, cause food is like the best source of happiness. I sleep, since that is the ultimate relaxation; at it’s peak. And I come on here, to have a relaxing not so relaxing chat with nice fellas lmao
    : 3 and much more. Ah and calm music.

    Eating yeah, that makes a lot of sense. LOL, yes I do sleep and it does relax me too :joy:. TWS doesn't exactly relax me, nor does it agitate me. Calm music? Do you just lie down and listen, doing nothing?


  • @lego-batman daidreem lol and maybe yes just listen to it. It’s calming to the brain worms : 3 lmao


  • @lego-batman Mixing and producing music. That's my thing ;)


  • Listen to music
    Compose music
    I read a book
    and something else that relaxes me.


  • @lego-batman

    If I am in dire need of relaxing I either hit the gym or go for a run. Exercise helps me keep my mind away from problems and overthinking and it usually helps. Tho I often get the "too tired to sleep" feeling :sweat_smile:


  • @lego-batman
    Dancing, yoga, working out, painting, long drives, swimming, caring for animals, some people even relax by cleaning maybe that would work?


  • @lego-batman I listen to music...maybe slouch on my couch n watch tv


  • Hmmm it depends on what level of stress I have.. haha but I do things to relax , these are the following : listening music, play musical instruments, movie marathon alone, writing anything, painting, doing crafts, beach, connect with nature, eat happy food, talk with pets, talk with the people I trust , memes, watch funny movies, play word games,bicycling, long walk,etc.


  • @lego-batman there are lots of ways to blow of stream and relax. I listen to binaural beats. Two tones produce a third. Some call it a brain drug but it helps me relax or get prepped for the day.

    Eh that much is expected from a German 😂
    You guys are working machines

    Anyways, I talk to people about pointless thing, that way I don’t use much of my energy 😁
    Now you know the reason for my existence on this site!

    But other times, I like to meditate or listen to some lo fi music 🎵

    Yap, germans right? However there are way more lazy people here than you would expect :shrug:

    I haven't quite mastered meditation yet, I prolly try to hard :joy:

    Going for a run sounds like a good idea indeed.

    I wish I had a beach close by... Memes don't relax me hehe. Funny movies kinda do though. What kind of instruments do you play?

    Both, some of these I personally do and some I know other people use. I didn't want to only give you options that work for me because we are different, what works for me might not work for you and vise versa, so I tried to give a variety of possible solutions from a variety of people
