Why don´t you try relaxing a little bit?
It is assumed here that the person you are talking to perhaps never relax or never relaxed, so you are offering him/her a new experience. That one of relaxing.
So it´s not a matter of being able to do it (the experience/the event) as above.
One example:
“I realized it was never really about fear. I just had to let myself relax, so I started feeling better. Why don't you try relaxing, too, all right?
Anyway, by saying that, somehow the end result is the same. I mean, it seems like having some intersection in the senses and meanings as well.
