I personally enjoy taking long walks. It doesn't matter if it's in the woods, on a bike trail, or just through town. There's something nice about just meandering and being alone with your thoughts while still being immersed in the outside world.

I love climbing outdoors. When you're on the boulder and focused on climbing, your thoughts are only focused on your next moves. At the top, you get a wonderful view of nature. It's quite rewarding and certainly decompressing.

Along with several other suggestions here (full night's rest, sitting in my yard/porch, smoking), I'd also add taking a long, hot bath with either bath salts or bubbles. Wonderful way to melt away even the worst of days.

Planning my evening and getting to bed at a decent time, letting myself sleep all night, does a lot. Especially after taking a shower.
