In the hustle and bustle of our fast-paced lives, we often forget the importance of slowing down and taking time for ourselves. Luckily, tomorrow is National Relaxation Day so you don’t have to feel guilty for taking  the day to relax and reset. National Relaxation Day is all about self-care and finding moments of calm in your daily life and allows for the perfect opportunity to recharge our batteries, both mentally and physically. Taking time to relax has so many benefits for our overall well-being so we’re here to help you make the most of the day - you deserve it!

Ways to relax:

Meditate and practice mindfulness

Practice being fully present and aware of your thoughts and feelings. Whether through meditation, deep breathing exercises, or simply observing your surroundings with heightened awareness, mindfulness can help reduce stress, increase focus, and improve overall emotional well-being.

Read a good book

Take a new book or an old favorite to a nearby park, coffee shop or library and spend the day getting lost in a story!

gita tip: support your local library by donating some books you have laying around and borrowing some new one’s you’ve been wanting to read! You can pack up all your books in gita’s cargo-bin. 

Disconnect from screens

Do a digital detox on this National Relaxation Day! These days we’re constantly glued to our screens, instantly opening notifications, and getting lost in an endless scroll. Spend the day outside with friends and family or go out and explore a new part of town! 

gita tip: Pack your gita robot with everything you’ll need for a day outside and away from screens - snacks, waters, a sweatshirt, a park blanket, etc! 

Connect with nature

Nature has the ability to calm our minds and rejuvenate our spirits. Whether it's a leisurely stroll in the park, a hike on a nearby trail, or simply sitting by a serene lake, spending time in nature can work wonders for your relaxation.
