Heat the magnet above its Curie temperature

Strike the magnet repeatedly with a hammer

Drop the magnet from a height onto a hard surface

Place the magnet inside a strong alternating magnetic field

Use an AC demagnetizer or degaussing coil

Slowly move the magnet away from an energized coil while the current is on
