movie night with home made food and milk tea and a cup of coffee. heaven
Bubble bath and a good book...ahhh!
I take a nice long bath with candles, and maybe a glass of wine or two. Ahhhhhh just the thought of that is more than relaxing!!!! :-) I think I can help my spouse relax more by just simply letting him relax when he wants to because most of the time I always mess up his relaxing moments. I can also give him more massages and provide a cleaner environment because sometimes I fail to do certain house chores consistently.
it depends on the kind of day I've had. If it was a really stressful day at work, I want to collapse into a bath and listen to music. If its been the kind of day where I need to escape, I'll turn to a book, movies, or video games. I think I can best help my partner relax by knowing him as well as I do. Sometimes he needs time to himself to unwind, as do I - we totally understand each other's need for occasional solitude. But other times I just try to be a good distraction for him ;)
I like to listen to relaxing music. Cuddle, and let her not have to worry about anything.
I like to play video games and watch tv and movies. As far as helping her, she likes to cuddle
Take a nap, a nice hot bath.. Get my nails done.
For him: let him nap, play call of duty or just leave him alone.

I knit but when it's a difficult pattern I get more strung out. Best way is to give him his free time to exercise or get away from me and our child. She's very clingy to him.
We lay in bed and watch friends
I sleep or take a bath. I scratch his back or hold his hand to help him relax.
Bath then massage and same for my partner maybe
We're both introverts, so sometimes we need alone-time: reading, computer games, sometimes just a nap. If we're relaxing together, it's nice to do something that we haven't done in a while. If we've been watching too much TV, it's time to get outside. If we've been out to dinner a lot, it helps to cook together. I find that just making space where we're not pressured is sometimes enough for relaxation.
Cuddle.
Sit and watch tv to unwind for her I'd cuddle her or take her out to blow off some steam if need be
TV, games, comic books. (Maybe I'm still 12.) For her, TV. And sex.
