A natural way to answer
It depends on the activity. Doing something alone lets me switch off and relax at my own pace. But with others, you bounce off each other and it often brings out more energy and creativity.
Key phrases to use
- switch off — to stop thinking about work or worries and relax mentally“Painting helps me switch off after a stressful day.”
- bounce off each other — to share ideas and energy with someone so you both get more creative or excited“When we cook together, we bounce off each other.”
- bring out — to cause a quality or side of someone to appear“Travelling brings out my adventurous side.”
