Massage. Both giving and taking. It relaxes me, even when I give one.

Farming, where I grow my own vegetables in a small garden I have in the back of my vacation’s house. I have the opportunity to eat organic vegetables but the real benefit is that I’m exposed to nature and that has a soothing effect in my mind. I also have a small winery where I produce my own wine.

I don’t know if this would apply as a hobby but I also like taking long walks, usually in the city. Although modern cities aren’t too friendly for long walks it’s an opportunity to discover new places and see new things.

Contemporary art. I’m not much of a painter, although I’ve tried it, but I watch the scene closely and like massage it helps calm my mind. The good thing about contemporary art is that it’s pretty much experimental so there are literally hundreds of different venues artists choose to express themselves and that makes it too interesting for me.

And, finally, of course reading. I like historical novels, sci-fi (I doubt there is anyone in here who doesn’t like sci-fi), and mystery novels.
