Dave,
the key, I believe, is to think about something other than that which is giving you stress. I'm a positive person by nature, so I don't get stressed easily. I operate under the guidelines that there's always someone who has it worse than I do, so I'm pretty thankful for what I DO have. I also feel that it will work itself out in the end, somehow.
But if I'm having trouble falling asleep thinking about problems, I just go to my "happy place" which is usually building something. If I have an ongoing project, I'll think about the next series of steps in the plan or if I don't have anything going on, I'll START a project in my head (eg. building a Pole Barn) and I'm usually asleep in a few minutes. (Never get far in the plans LOL).
As for relaxation, I don't think it's the activity as much as it is the person. I enjoy playing golf as a hobby but know guys who will get incredibly stressed out during the game. Some guys love fishing or hunting. I find walks in the woods very soothing. Key is to find something that you can use to go to your own "happy place".

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
