The Benefits of Outdoor Relaxing
The Benefits of Outdoor Relaxing
You'll be surprised at what you accomplish when you set out to accomplish nothing We really want you to loaf around in your hammock for the sheer, decadent joy of it. It's a lost art, something we all did naturally as kids. But the paradox of accomplishing nothing is that it actually accomplishes a lot. Stress can be useful to you, especially if you're stressed over something you can control, like starting a new job or giving a speech. But even good stress wears you out over time. Dealing with chronic stress is the single most influential key to health and well-being, and the ability to relax is fundamental to avoiding and even curing stress-related diseases. When we relax, we repair. How does that work? Stress clenches the body. Relaxation decreases muscle tension and thus increases blood flow. More blood flow, more repair. Relaxation also introduces pleasure-inducing chemicals to the body which also fight the damage introduced by tension. Want more benefits for doing nothing? How about increased immunity? It has been proven that resting and relaxing increases immunity, and improves creativity, memory, and clarity of thought. If you make time for the gym to work on your body, make time for the un-gym too. It's just as good for you. |  |
Another gym tie-in: relaxing can help you lose weight. It's not just that we reach for that tub of comforting Double-Toffee Choco-Bliss ice cream when stressed; stress causes a rise of cortisol in the body and increased cortisol causes the body to store fat.
Okay, Dr. Goal-Oriented, there are your solid reasons for crawling into your cozy backyard hammock. But really, the biggest reason is that it's a simple luxury, and you deserve it. Besides, somebody has to help keep those trashy novel writers in business.
