A phenomenological description of magnetization relaxation and dynamics is briefly reviewed and discussed. Inconsistency in spin wave damping calculation by means of the phenomenological approach in comparison with one using a microscopic approach leads naturally to a new form of the magnetization relaxation in which the modulus of magnetization is not conserved. Consideration of the nonconservation of magnetization modulus results in a new relaxational magnetization dynamic equation. Application of this new dynamic equation enables us to give a sartisfactory explanation why the ferromagnetic relaxation in domain is always at variance with that in the domain wall.
