Sell everything you own, buy some land in the country, quit your job and just chill out. Grow a garden, raise some chickens, go to farmer's markets and sell your wares. The happiest people I know quit tech years ago and became small-time farmers.

You forgot the first step for this which is to be independently wealthy and not actually need the income from your little farm.

Another option is to work remotely and live rurally. Best of both worlds. Also more easily achievable for those who want to stay in tech.
