Do not combine *trouver* with *c’est*; choose one structure: either *je trouve que c’est…* or *c’est…*.
Oui, je trouve ça très relaxé.
*Relaxé* is the past participle meaning “relaxed”, not the adjective “relaxing”.
Oui, je trouve ça très très relaxant.
Avoid double intensifiers; one *très* is enough.

Cultural Tip
In French, *trouver* is a common way to give a personal opinion, especially in spoken language. *Relaxant* is perfectly natural, but in more formal contexts you might hear *apaisant* or *reposant*. Also, French speakers often prefer the short *ça* over *cela* in casual speech.
