Relaxation is an art, and in some places, it is a high art. Fortunately, here in America we can afford to import that kind of art, and its probably what we need most in your lives. After all, Americans work harder than almost anyone else in the Western world, and we deserve a little more than our two weeks of vacation a year. That’s where the Brazilian-style double hammock comes in.
A large Brazilian hammock is top-of-the-line when it comes to simple, unadulterated chilling out in your back yard. If they aren’t your style, you might instead consider a Mayan bananna hammock. Either way, a hammock is just an amazing way to drift off into another world while in the confines of your own property. You can fall asleep, taking a mid-day nap, or you can catch up on a book while sipping a cold drink.
If you don’t like simple hammocks, chairs present another wonderful option for the relaxation-deprived. An outdoor hammock chair is the nearest thing to a hammock without exactly being the same thing. A single hammock chair can transform a back yard into a paradise and an escape from the stressful humdrum of your daily life.
Really, a hammock can be a life-changing experience. With a hammock, you can finally have a reason to go into your back yard without having to mow the lawn, dig in the garden, or otherwise do some kind of yard work. Instead, you can catch up on your sleep as well as your personal, enriching education. You’ll quickly realize just how empty and unsatisfying your life was pre-hammock, and you won’t want to ever go back to a hammockless life.
A relaxation-centered lifestyle is the new way to do things in America. We’ve spent too many years trying to save up a nest egg, buy the right house, work towards having the right education or the perfect job. In the end, we did all that work and you know what? We’re tired. We want to just check out for a bit, have some time to ourselves, and stop living our lives for a life that never seems to really begin. Let it begin now. Let it begin with a cold beer in our hands and a good buck in our lap, hat pulled over our eyes, the distant sounds of children playing in sprinklers singing us to sleep. Let us pretend we have no worries.
