Landscape photography... gets you out and gives you the thrill of hunting without the carnage... a hint I heard is to never go out when it rains without your camera, gives you chances for interesting light and shadow. Another one is making bread - preferably sourdough - something to slow you down and ground you - don't use a machine, kneading is very therapeutic - I'm allergic to wheat or I would do it more often. Sketching - sketch your children or pets, they can teach you about drawing from real life as opposed to from pictures and teach you too see the world more clearly. Singing - join a choir or barbershop chorus or a band - singing is the only one of the above I still do much of and it truly soothes the savage beast. Plus there is a lot of cool techie stuff you can buy and hook up to your computer to do sound recording. Learning an instrument - get a good teacher - is really cool too and you can do it at any age. The new digital pianos sound like grand pianos and cost far less.... it's very relaxing to play and/or doodle on the piano.
