NPR: It's National Relaxation Day ... So Relax

It's National Relaxation Day ... So Relax

Before I leave today, I just wanted to remind you all that it's National Relaxation Day -- designated for just chillin' out. Here are experts' recommendations for relaxing:

*Get a massage at a local day spa.
* Treat yourself to a manicure or pedicure.
* Curl up in a comfortable pair of pajamas and read a good book.
* Slip into a soft bath robe after a long soak in the bath tub.
* Take a nap.
* Light a scented candle and take a bubble bath.

Well, I'm not metrosexual enough for a pedicure. But I like the sound of a nap. I hear it also can help you live longer.
