How do you manage stress?

I thought it might be useful to spark up a conversation on stress as it relates to being a trader and how we all manage it.

I have found trading to be the most rewarding career I can imagine but at times it can be stressful. Even when I don't "feel" stressed the constant attention and focus can sometimes wear your mind out by the end of the day/week.

I have been experimenting lately with simple biofeedback and meditation practice and that seems to really help ease the mind after a day of going full steam.

What are some if any of the things you do to relax?
