There are several ups and downs in life, In order to maintain peace within yourself, one needs to do whatever makes them happy. here's what I used to do, sketching!
That is made by using Charcoal pencil (medium). all the light and the dark stokes are done using same charcoal pencil but with variations in hand pressure. That is the imaginative view of the landscape.
This is my way to relax, what's yours?
