![The "Chillout" badge](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/1X/93829bf51e12d78ca66d6430cbc4863af137b0ed.png) Hello, Community! This time, we’re returning to after-hours themes, encouraging you to build our unique list of the best ways of achieving relaxation! **Share your own methods and places to relax and calm your nerves down.** Share what works for you. Maybe a walk in the forest? A long bath? Or a sauna session? Reading your favorite book while lying on the couch? Or a solid workout in the gym? The range of options is endless! Don’t forget that every participant **receives a unique “Chillout” badge**. You’ll see in your Community profile next month, as well as 100 bonus points! Kicking off the challenge, I would share my own effective method to chill my mind and reset for a while. When I’m visiting the Polish coast, I love sunny weekend walks in Gdańsk’s Brzeźno Pier, and while in Silesia, the best way to relax is a day off in the Beskid Mountains 😎 ![Gdańsk (left) + Mount Żar (right)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/8/f/8f655b9bc3bb792d51a8856f2f906a281b7bafd9.png) ---

My mind thinking about that slow pedal, going uphill, I can’t think of anything else but getting to the next curve, to the next tree. When I finish, the effort turns into inner peace. ![PacoPorro_0-1710251032492.jpeg](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/2X/1/1d4f2d8d0f76825c0eb4bd7f452b3dad20c8e46a.jpeg) ---

Taking long walks with the dog, as well as relaxing in the pool are my two top ways of disconnecting for a while. ---

Saunas are always nice. There is a really cool place in Slovakia that has a ton of Saunas that I absolutely love visiting when we are over there. While in the states, I like working on my vehicle,  spending time with family and just unplugging and unwinding. ---

Music, mainly Salsa & Southern Rock. In the weekends, there is nothing better than a Siesta. If you don’t know what a Siesta is, check it out 😂 [Siesta - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siesta) Finally, I love gardening, and a nice exercise too ---

One of my favorite things to do when I unwind (and that I’ve always particularly done when I was younger) is to play music. I love just taking a couple of moments here and there through the day, and even after to work - to pick up my guitar, or sit next to my piano and just learn a new song or compose something. It really gets me in a flow state where nothing in the world matters but the sounds I create. :musical\_notes: ---

I go to the mountains:mountain: with instant ramen noodles:steaming\_bowl: and a small stove in my backpack. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will cook ramen on the stove you brought and eat it while looking at the beautiful scenery. It’s a very relaxing time for me.😀 ![Shirai_0-1710315263897.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/9/c/9c729a32c812ab4366a35f1b843267b8d495e553.png) ---

For me best way to relax is sports. Either going for a run on my own with some music in my ears or practicing Taekwondo helps me to get my thoughts away from stressful events. And sometimes its just resting on the couch with music plugged into my ears to un-plug from the world around me. Also Sauna is a great way to relax for me, but just not available every time… ---
