Be sure to set aside enough time for entertainment,hobbies, and may be just relaxation. I can't guess correctly what the writer means "may be just relaxation." It means

"We must set aside eniugh time for all possible relaxation such as entertainment,hobbies etc--" (or) We must set aside enough time but it may be as little as possible to relax.

    I think may be is a typo for maybe = "perhaps". Oct 14, 2016 at 1:14
  • @learner When you cite text from a page, why do you not copy and paste it instead of rephrasing it yourself and introducing typographical errors (as above)? Also, please always include a link to the source. Oct 14, 2016 at 2:34

Be sure to set aside enough time for entertainment, hobbies, and maybe just relaxation.

It means to set aside time for the conjoined items (entertainment, hobbies, and relaxation).

"just maybe" adds a bit of hesitancy for that item, meaning relaxation is important but you might consider it a bit more.
