Nothing wrong with simply relaxing during your time off. You don't have to actively be doing something to enjoy yourself and unwind.
I'm a big fan of the saying that "time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time" for that exact reason. If you want to do nothing then do nothing, that's perfectly okay!
What is sad, though, is that I feel like this is saying you get so tired and burnt out from working just to survive that even when you get time off you don't get to enjoy it or do things you want because you're just so burnt out from working.
