What do you do to relax your mind?
I meditate. There's a lot of amazing guided meditations you can find online, as well as in the app store. I also go for walks out in nature, or long car drives listening to music. I find myself listening to a lot of ambient tones since it tends to calm me down and put me into a more relaxed state of mind. I also tend to draw or paint, it's therapeutic. It really depends on you as an individual though, you need to find that out for yourself. It's easy to do if you're aware of your state of mind and the reasons it alters with certain emotions. But, meditating is definitely a mind relaxer, for anyone.
What do you usually do to relax?
I've always been on the computer. Generally, by the time I get off of work, I want to do something mindless, like watch tv, surf the internet or play a video game. If I actually have time, I would like to go outside and look up at the stars. For a while, I started reading a book right before bed. Sometimes the lack of light and visual stimuli does the trick.
How do you relax in your free time?
I do Tai Chi, which is very relaxing and cultivating for me. I like to read books. I made a practice of re-reading books that I read in my youth - Moby Dick, Treasure Island, American Tragedy, Stranger in a Strange Land, etc. etc. to see whether I approach and understand these works differently. You would be surprised to learn how much you have grown by revisiting the past through reading books from the past. I also play with my cat and dog, and I play the piano, which I used to seriously do.Then sometimes, I just sit back with my spouse and enjoy the silence.

when you arrive at home, first get off those tiring clothes and change into something, loose yet flattering. Warm up some water and either soak your feet in some soothing soap like chamomile or olive. Ensure you are sitting on a comfortable couch so that you can relax your back. Get some warm tea and if it is late, turn off the main switch and light up the table lamp or darker shades. play some soothing blues and don't answer any phone calls or the door bell. A good hour or thirty minutes will do you just fine. Alternatively, you could get into a war bath, light up candles and a glass of wine and soak your self in a bubble bath!
