Reading Outside is a Great Way to Relax

Today is a beautiful day, it's one of those sunny days where I wish I could sit outside for an hour or two and read a good book. I love to read outside and with how stressful the days have become, carving out a few minutes to relax and enjoy the day is really important. Which is why I love the summer because it gives me an opportunity to unplug by sitting outside and reading for a few minutes or more.

I try to get out side and read whenever it's possible because it really is a great stress reliever. I know everyone is busy but I recommend (if it's possible) taking a few minutes to sit outside to read. It doesn't matter if it's the backyard, a balcony, the park, the beach, an outdoor restaurant or your porch. I would even count sitting by an open window and reading because going outside is not always as accessible as it is for some.

Really all that matters is that you are taking a few minutes to relax (and read) and if you do go outside, don't forget to apply your sunscreen.
