A woman relaxed on a deck chair at the edge of the garden.

Two women and a man had evidently been relaxing on a stone patio.

She saw the woman relax, her head sinking down, then coming back up.

The woman relaxed and smiled uncertainly back, then began moving again.

When I finished the woman had relaxed a little.

In this case it wasn't, so she was patient enough to chat and wait until the woman had relaxed again.

The men and women could relax for a time; some even went home if they lived nearby.

For the first time, she saw the young woman relax a bit.

The old woman relaxed a little as the girl obeyed.

The two men moved off while the women relaxed and chatted.
