"For men" feels a little reductive, I don't mind painting my nails on occasion, listening to an audio book.

A nice walk in heavy rain with big droplets does wonders, shoutout for the pluviophiles. Or sitting in a quiet spot of nature and taking in the ambience.

Sometimes it's as simple of having a cold beer and relaxing on the sofa with a good book or playing some couch co-op with my partner.

I'm sitting outside under a patio with a roof during a mild thunderstorm right now. Very relaxing.
