It was a flash game called flOw. You're just a microbe wandering around eating things, and you occasionally evolve, based on what you ate. I can't find an instance that works properly with a flash emulator, but that game would actually lower my heart rate.

I always loved Canaster for its chill. But the most relaxing was actually Mers (a Pen and Paper Game).
Boccia is relaxed as well, but you have to remember the balls.
~~League of Legends ranked solo queue~~
Stardew Valley. It can be stressful, but even when it is, the stakes are pretty low.
I'm in the Animal Crossing boat. It's the right kind of cozy.
A Short Hike and A Little To The Left were also pretty chill.
Tetris attack (panel de pon) on easy difficulty, the soundtrack is absolute catharsis,
It gets intense when the screen starts to fill, can give you that jolt of adrenaline (it can be a really intense jolt, that soundtrack gets intense), but you're not in any real danger of losing because it's so very simple. Swapping the blocks gives a very satisfying swish sound, the bubble popping noise as blocks remove themselves, the character noises as the combo counter goes up.
Poochy imo is the best character, but all of them have great backing tracks and unique combo noises.
Journey.
Omg yes how did I forget that one. Love it.
Osmos.
Osm-- dangit.

Orbit. You're just trying to achieve and maintain a stable orbit. I would play it one-handed while rocking my infants back to sleep. So peaceful.
Monument Valley. No rush, no timer, pretty puzzles. I keep replaying it now and then.
Beautifully made game
Lake. Just driving around delivering mail and parcels and communicating with the residents, whilst listening to the soundtrack is so soothing.
