Stress Relief and Muscle Tension

In an ideal world, there would never be any traffic jams.  Your boss would always be understanding, and there would be no fights with your family.  You'd always get the perfect amount of sleep, and awake refreshed and ready for another day.  Sounds lovely, doesn't it?  Well, unfortunately, that's not the world that we live in.  That's way you need a stress relief strategy or even regimen. Living in a technological society, we have way too much stress on our plates.  You leave your home, and get onto the road.  The person ahead of you is going 20 miles below the speed limit.  You pass him or her and see that they're texting.  You let it go, but inside, you get annoyed.  Someone else cuts you off, and you get stopped by a train.  A really long train.  You get to work, and your boss gets on your case for being late.  All during the day, you're screamed at by customers, and you get back on the road to face horrible traffic all the way home.  By the time you get home, what should have been a 20 minute commute has become an hour and change.  You try not to think about it, but you tense up ever so slightly.

Your stress level goes up and down a little bit, but if you don't resolve all of the stress, so you have a condition called "stacking."  Stacking is unresolved stress.  If you're like most people, your tension will be in your neck and your back.  After a while, if you're like a lot of people you take a muscle relaxant, and maybe some sort of sedative and get to bed.  However, there is a better way to relieve your stress and your tension.

Hot Tub Therapy

Soak in a hot tub instead.  You will not only relax your muscles and tendons, but because of the whole setting, you will find that you're not only free of your tension, you're better able to fall asleep.  That is one area that a lot of people don't know is a big way to relieve stress is to get a good night's sleep, but to so many of us that is often elusive.
With a hot tub you get a good night's sleep.  With a hot tub, you can also relieve your stress.  Pretty strong reasons to buy a hot tub.
