Play an instrument - mostly acoustic guitar, if I am stressed
Browse internet forums
Clean the kitchen or bathroom (you'd be surprised)
Do something kind to make someone else happy
Cam chat my partner online (when we live in different continents)
Hold my partner in my arms (when we live in the same continent)

I also like to go somewhere away from people for a while - a hike in a nice secluded park, bike ride somewhere, etc.

When I feel like it's too much, though rare, I just do something to disengage with reality. Play games, bass, read, write, draw, go for a walk etc. and relax. |

get a scrap car and do "body work" with a sledgehammer/baseball bat
or sit in a quiet room or outside place away from everything and just, well, sit. I find it rather relaxing to sit around and do that occasionally. I actually did one last year where I rode out to the middle of nowhere at night on my snowmobile and just sat there with my helmet off... very relaxing... I was sitting next to train tracks but was easily 4 hours from anything resembling a train going anywhere near there and yet still heard one in the distance... it was a very nice night

| | | | I let it build up and let it go at a gig, that's why I need to schedule at least one a month.
When I stopped playing for 12 years I tried racing bicycles (road racing) but it wasn't the same release. |
