Relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, on a recent survey of people who bought a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/hot-tubs#all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Master Spas hot tub (opens in a new tab)\">Master Spas hot tub<\/a>, 1,313 chose relaxation as the reason for use. Health and hydrotherapy was second with 1,138 votes and family time was third with 602.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make the most out of your time in a Master Spas hot tub by streaming a soothing playlist. Music is known for its calming effects and by combining it with a hot tub, it\u2019s the ultimate in relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> How does a hot tub help you relax?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Stress is a part of life, a natural response to things in our environment. Sometimes, it can be good, like the butterflies on the first day of school.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But often, stress can be a negative feeling that affects our quality of life. We can be in irritable, tired, and struggle concentrating. We can struggle to maintain relationships or perform well at work. It can even make us sick.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Managing and reducing stress, therefore, is vital. It\u2019s not just important to feel better now, according to the American Psychological Association, but for our long-term well-being.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing things that increase your feelings of happiness, joy, and enthusiasm are key, as is resting your mind.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not enough, though, just to sink into the couch and watch Netflix. The body \u2014&nbsp;and the mind \u2014&nbsp;need to disconnect from daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research shows that spending 20 minutes in a hot tub can be good for a person\u2019s stress level. The warm water helps to increase blood flow and decreases anxiety. The change in circulation brings much needed oxygen to the muscles, helping built-up tension to ease.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also evidence that hydrotherapy reduces pain. Whether chronic or acute, pain can cause physical and emotional stress. The relief that a hot tub by Master Spas offers can help you feel better from the inside out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/health\/alternative-medicine\/4711987\/In-hot-water-Have-a-bath-and-relax.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according to psychologist Neil Morris<\/a>, hot water has is restorative because it gives you an opportunity to enjoy \u201ca wonderful combination of isolation, quiet, and comfort.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/twilight\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"626\" src=\"https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-1024x626.jpg\" alt=\"hot tub playlist\" class=\"wp-image-465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-1024x626.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-768x469.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-520x318.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.masterspas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MasterSpasHealthyLiving-740x452.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Music can help you unwind at the end of the day.

An upbeat song might help improve our move, and an anthem might help us swim a bit faster during a work out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And just the same, listening to a song with a slower tempo can have a relaxing effect.\u00a0Research\u00a0has shown that music can be part of a person\u2019s relaxation regimen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanford University&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unr.edu\/counseling\/virtual-relaxation-room\/releasing-stress-through-the-power-of-music\">researchers<\/a>&nbsp;reported that listening to music was able to change brain functioning to the same extent as medication. It can lower your heart rate and blood pressure, as well as breathe more deeply. You might even feel your muscles relax.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music that you find most relaxing is dependent on what type you most enjoy. While classical, jazz, or folk might have the best tempos, you are the best judge of what will help you escape the day and improve your mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">30 Songs to Help You Chill Out in a Hot Tub<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are our top picks for a playlist that will help you unwind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>\u201cBlower\u2019s Daughter,\u201d Damien Rice<\/li><li>\u201cSomeone Like You,\u201d Adele&nbsp;<\/li><li>\u201cWeightless,\u201d Marconi Union<\/li><li>\u201cYellow,\u201d Coldplay<\/li><li>\u201cSunset Lover,\u201d Petit Biscuit<\/li><li>\u201cYou &amp; Me,\u201d Skrux<\/li><li>\u201cHeld,\u201d Kiasmos<\/li><li>\u201cSpirit,\u201d Beyonce&nbsp;<\/li><li>\u201cHow Do You Sleep?\u201d Sam Smith<\/li><li>\u201cBy Your Side,\u201d Sade<\/li><li>\u201cJust Another Day,\u201d Jon Secada<\/li><li>\u201cWildflowers,\u201d Tom Petty<\/li><li>\u201cHere Comes the Sun,\u201d The Beatles<\/li><li>\u201cI Wont\u2019 Give Up,\u201d Jason Mraz<\/li><li>\u201cPhotograph,\u201d Ed Sheeran<\/li><li>\u201cLouise,\u201d Mipso<\/li><li>\u201cShrike,\u201d Hosier<\/li><li>\u201cBeyond,\u201d Leon Bridges<\/li><li>\u201cEarly Morning Coffee Cups,\u201d Jaimi Faulkner<\/li><li>\u201cThe Barrel,\u201d Aldous Harding<\/li><li>\u201cI Guess I Just Feel Like,\u201d John Mayer<\/li><li>\u201cBurning Ground,\u201d Brandon Jenner<\/li><li>\u201cI Was Made For Loving You,\u201d Tori Kelly and Ed Sheeran<\/li><li>\u201cCall It Dreaming,\u201d Iron &amp; Wine<\/li><li>\u201cGeorgia,\u201d Vance Joy<\/li><li>\u201cMoving in Slow Motion,\u201d The Sweet Remains<\/li><li>\u201cMalibu,\u201d Miley Cyrus<\/li><li>\u201cThis Town,\u201d Niall Horan<\/li><li>\u201cAnaheim,\u201d Nicole Zefanya&nbsp;<\/li><li>\u201cSay You Won\u2019t Let Go,\u201d James Arthur<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/6hsvrHTeUUfqZEm0jJs8AK?si=Edephv8pSDSgL1VEjfc4TA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Listen to the playlist on Spotify.
