My favorite way to relax is to turn the lights in my room down low and curl up with a heated blanket and cup of hot tea while I either play a cozy game (of course lol) or read a book :) or even watch one of your videos, Sarah! I love to listen to them while I'm playing games!
I ador Spiritfarer as someone who's had to deal with death in a way that plagued most of my emotional and mental development as a child finding a game that allows me to confront and understand what it means to live and what it means to die has been very comforting.
Garden buddies seems nice. Thats one reason i love party animals so much is because the game is so cute that i cant help but to be in a good mood no matter whats going on. Little animals games are the best
Ahhhhhh. I actually met a teacher who uses this garden buddies game to teach mindfulness and teach some social skills and relaxation for her students. ❤❤❤
Fall is my favorite time of year... the cool, crisp air... soft blankets... coffee and a cozy game on my Steam Deck or Switch. I would love to win a copy of Garden Buddies! I've had my eye on it for a while. Cozy vibes = 🎮 ☕️ 🍂
I have some anxiety disorders and the things that most relax me are my ferrets, playing video games (Coral Island is wonderful) and talking to my wife.
My main way to relax is playing games, although I've started doing 5 minutes of Tai Chi per day. If I'm having serious anxiety issues, I use square breathing to help me center.
My favorite way to relax is being by myself with either a cozy game or my sketchbook, listening to relaxing music and a stress relief tea. Nothing beats that feeling.
I love the fact I used to play FPS games like CSGO and GTA during and just before/after the pandemic, but since early 2022 and especially mid 2023, I started to play cozy games. It started when I played stardew and later My Time at Portia. I then stopped mostly playing FPS, and completely from mid 2023 from when I started Coral Island. However, I prefer to listen to you talking and playing cozy games than to play it myself partly because I don't have the money but also because of your voice. Speaking of which, this video is useful given the name of the title. Sarah always makes my day/night better
I love this cozy game list! Unfortunately my depression and anxiety has hit me harder over this last year than ever. I picked up spiritfarer as a distraction and I'm so glad I did. It was just the perfect game to play at a certain time in my life. It is now one of my all time favorites. I have to agree with you Sarah! My favorite way to relax is definitely with coffee, lofi music and a video game
I love to relax by sipping a cup of tea, playing my favorite cozy game on Switch- Flutter Away is a super zen short game that just came out- and honestly watching your Coral Island Streams/videos. My favorite way to spend a weekend morning ♥️🥰
I find it most relaxing when I’m sitting with a warm drink either at home or at a coffee shop. Depending on my mood, I either want to be playing a game or listening to some music. Sometimes both lol
My favorite way to relax is cuddling up with my pups in bed, book in hand, hot cocoa or tea to warm myself up, and some lofi in the background. It’s the most immaculate way to relax for me!!
oh to go back to march 2020 when acnh was new and i actually had the patience to play it day by day and not time travel oh well, at least i do love coming onto my main save island and just hanging out without time traveling. i enjoy the days i have shooting stars and hanging out with my bestie Coco.
Dealing with chronic illnesses both physical and mental I find myself in bed most days. Cozy gaming with LoFi music has been a godsend for me. Right now I’m playing Fae Farm and Spiritfarer.
Games have always been a great refuge from the stresses of life. Especially with winter coming, a nice warm blanket and a cozy game cures what ails you 😋
This was a wonderful video Sarah!! I completely agree with all of your choices, even the two that have not released yet I also got to try their demos (I own all the rest except the giveaway, hehe). I am thankful to the publisher for offering you a game code to give out to your community, fingers crossed I win. My favorite ways to relax are gaming while cuddled up under a blanket, cuddling with my cat Saki, and listening to music. Good luck to everyone and congratulations to the winner ahead of time!! 💜
What wonderful recommendations. We all live stressful lives and when the holiday season approaches it certainly can become more so. I practice meditation, yoga, and love listening to calming music or your voice through your videos and streams. It was so relaxing watching you play unpacking.
This game looks really cute and I always like a way to relax after work my main way I relax is when I get on my PC and play my games . Thats very relaxing for me.
My favorite way to relax and unwind is by sitting outside and watching my dogs run around and play. It's nice letting them remind me to just be in the moment and have fun. I can't help but smile watching them.
Hi Sarah thanks for these recommendations-- a few I haven't heard of before. My job has become so intense and stressful the past few months that cozy gaming and occasionally swimming are the only things I can muster up brainspace and energy for. My ultimate relaxation is basking in the sun near water so I can listen to the waves. 🌞🌊
Being an Aries, I find it difficult to relax and be mindful. Always ready to move to the next project without finishing any. I do find sitting daily and reading oracle cards at least provides a time of stillness. I tend to go for the games that aren't so cozy but you got me hooked on Coral Island. I never thought about games helping with mindfulness. Very intriguing! Perhaps this is just what I need.
Oh man, honestly, any farming game is totally relaxing. Also AC:NH is very relaxing. I have a few of these games that i haven't played yet on my console or steam account.
What a lovely idea for a video. So needed right now. My relaxation comes with cuddling with my cats, reading fiction, and playing cozy games. I love watching your gameplays and this list has some of my favorite games on it! It is through your videos/streams that I have even found them including: coral island, cozy grove, unpacking, dordogne, coffee talk, and gourdlets. Have to check out the others.
my favorite place to relax is drawing or playing my favorite cozy games! (cozy groove and dreamlight valley) i hope one day i have the chance to play Coral Island too. thank u for the game recommendations!
You are in sync with the universal energy. Just what I needed. What a fabulous list of games. I need to save this video for sure and refer back to it when I need the right cozy game!
This is a nice list thanks. Garden Buddies looks cute & sounds like a game my partner would like as he he is struggling at the moment with his mental health. It doesn't sound too complicated & we used to do breathing practice together. It's not that expensive so that's good. I think we would both like Naiad as swimming is very relaxing. At the moment Paia is my mindfulness game. I like to sit with an audio book & run around with no particular goal in mind x
Lately I've been relaxing with Palia, especially at night, I like to play the game while enjoying some ASMR, but I can't wait to go back to Coral Island once version 1.0 is released.
Hi Sarah, so I just heard about a game which will have a demo on Steam on Oct 26, for a limited time, that I thought might interest you. It’s called Moonlight Peaks which has a Steam page.
Thank you for your beautiful video. I am so happy I discovered your channel! Your cozy content is right up my alley. I played Spiritfarer last year and it was such a beautiful and emotional story, I was in tears throughout. I just picked up Aka and Cozy Grove to try out based on your recommendations and wishlisted Coffee Talk Series, Unpacking and Dordogne. I never would have known about them without your video, thank you!
My therapist recommended I try cozy gaming to calm my busy, anxious mind. It has been a great way for me to relax and I also have the added bonus of being a part of your incredible community Thank you for the new game recommendationsThank you for all you do, Sarah

I think these emojis describe the cozy vibes especially for fall.

My favorite way to relax is listening to positive affirmations and soft music. Love this time of year as fall always makes me think COZY 🕯🌧🍃

I love relaxing while playing Disney Dreamlight Valley, watching my favorite TH-camrs and crafting. 💜🌹
I have a stressful life and I’ve found gaming to give me me time, with a cup of coffee and my headphones to be my cozy time. The veggies are so cute!
I love to watch anime to relax or read manga :) Play games, I love to play Spiritfarer as well, is a really good relaxing game

I personally love to roam through the woods on my own and just listen to the sounds of nature. I can't think of anything more relaxing than that
Games have always been a great refuge from the stresses of life. Especially with winter coming, a nice warm blanket and a cozy game cures what ails you 😋
Great video! My favorite ways to relax is playing cute little games. One of my favorites was Yonder, that one was really relaxing to me. ❤

I personally love a hot bath with a cozy game on my switch. For me it's my me time moment as a Mom.
What a quality video!! I love to relax with a warm drink too and the fireplace! 🔥
My favorite way to relax is curling up on the couch with my Steam Deck to play Coral Island! I need to build up my Steam cozy game library now!

I love your videos and thanks for the opportunity for the game. I relax with gaming as well.
