What are your favourite ways to unwind after a hard day of work ?
For most of us here, working means looking at the screen for at least 6 - 8 hours a day by the end of which a brain freeze is likely, thatโs okay, thatโs work, we need to make things happen ๐.
Question is things you like to do after that to relax, please share with us ๐ง

I couldn't agree more @qudsia_ali doing the things you love like your hobbies bring a lot of fulfilment that can have a positive effect on other aspects of our life including work ๐ฑ
Gaming. Just turn off my brain and play some League of Legends
Edit: After reading everyone elseโs I donโt feel as productive as most of you
@katerina_kurshina Most games have an associated discord and reddit so you will find a lot of people on those. I am a big reddit user and have done marketing on there as well so if you need any help with that let me know. What are you trying to do with gamer communities? :)
Get at least an hour away from a screen in the fresh air. I also enjoy cooking - the process of chopping vegetables and lining up the spices and herbs helps me recenter my thoughts and get rid of any lingering stress.
And finally, a glass of wine, and the most popular leisure time activity since lockdowns - Netflix! ๐บ
Hey @geetanjalishrivastava, Like that you have a proper routine for yourself setup waiting for you to relax, thats just great ๐
I create a piece of content, post it on my community pages, go out for a walk, then take the dog out for a walk...ask my wife if she would like to watch a movie together on Netflix...if she agrees then I lock myself for the quality time...in between I get tempted to check if someone liked my post, commented, or go to stripe to see if someone reacted...
but I control my emotions but as a bootstrap founder, my worry for the next days continues...before hitting the bed, I review my whole day strategy and check how can I do tomorrow better....this consistent habit helps me to come up with new content and engagement ideas.
Hey Harish, I think many founder can relate with you, you are in hustling mode so it can be hard to relax, you gotta do what you gotta do. Your dedication is admirable and I wish you all the best ๐
In no particular order: binging Netflix, listening to music, working out, fresh air, singing karaoke.
I'm pretty religious about watching movies every weeknight. I'm a huge film buff and try to stop working around 8PM so that there's a film playing by 9:30 at the latest.
@arunpariyar haha thanks boss. Peep my Letterboxd @immigrantfilm if you wanna keep up with my diary entries!
Working out + music. A great way to relieve some stress and just tune everything else out.
Cooking! ๐
I eat once a day, I LOOOVE eating, so I relax by cooking a hefty meal ๐
I take swimming ๐โโ๏ธ as the best way to keep myself active and relaxed
