Namaste.

i knew a woman once who was epileptic. she was in training to be able to mentally raise and lower her heart rate to alleviate symptoms of the seizures.

[Asmodean]

I don't require ancient Indian healing. My regular hobbies of playing video games and tabletop, reading and otherwise couch-potating... Potatoing? Tatering.

Anyhoo, those there are just fine by me.

Listen to classical music.
Mozart is best for relaxation.

[Asmodean]

Yep. Playing music, too. Learning a melody is a good way of making some hours disappear.

[zorkan]

J.S. Bach is also good.
St Mathew Passion, St John Passion, Easter Oratorio.
Of his cantatas, many are probable lost, but many remain.
Good music was written for churches and no matter if you are an unbeliever.

As Tim Minchin put it, "some of those hymns have nice chords, but the lyrics are dodgy."

That said, Dies Irae sounds great, lyrics and all. (I do prefer the musically-modern-ish, yet somehow not-dissimilar O Fortuna myself, but not for the reason of less overtly-religious lyrics - or relative musical modernity for that matter.)

Faith has led to some great art - be it architecture, poetry, painting or music. But then, so have narcotics, I suppose...

[Dark Lightning]

Messed up on Jesus instead of narcotics. 

[Asmodean]

Pretty much, yeah.

Me, I'd prefer some good old-fashioned shrooms, I think, as while I detest being thusly impaired, my dislike for religious impairment is far greater.

For max chilling, I'm always down for some transcendental masturbation.

I mean, who isn't?

[Tank]

A good book. That is often Terry Pratchett but I've read the Discworld series 4 or 5 times now. Always on the lookout for good quality Space Opera Sci Fi.
 

[Tom62]

Watching a movie or TV series; reading a good book; getting a massage;  going to a sauna; having a swim; enjoying a good meal; listening to music; having a walk; drinking a good wine, beer or whisky.

Always down?

Best sport for relaxation is golf.
Before I joined here I posted on a golf forum where any mention of religion and politics was out of bounds.
Eventually I was thrown off.

So here's my golf tip for the day.
As a game of precise engineering, imagine you are delivering the ball straight and long with religion marked all over it.
