1. Bath Bombs

One of my most favorite ways to relax: the wonderful fad that is the bath bomb. A fizzy spa experience wrapped up in one tiny ball will never disappoint. The lotions and oils and fragrances released into the bath water will soothe, heal and rejuvenate in one of the purest and most natural forms.

2. Essential Oils + Diffuser

One of the most beneficial ways to relax: the underrated miraculous power of essential oils. There is no better feeling then falling asleep to the soothing scent of lavender or working out to the cooling power of peppermint. Essential oils benefit physical and mental health tremendously, and although they can be on the more expensive side, these products are definitely worth the extra dollar.

3. A Wave Lamp

One of the most beautiful ways to relax: the virtually unheard of wave lamp. This is a lamp that has a moving LED light inside a wavy blue lid that projects the image of ocean waves on the ceiling. The soft movement and relaxing color is perfect for falling asleep or relaxing before bed.

4. Art!!!!

One of the most fun ways to relax: creativity! Painting, sketching, splattering, you name it. Some cheap, simple and easy ideas include glitter, felt, glue, stickers, scrapbooking, valentine-making, anything you feel like. Even if you may feel like you aren't very "creative", everyone has creativity in some form or fashion. Finding the right creative outlet for yourself is a good goal to have for relaxing in 2017.

5. Glitter Jars

One of the most sparkly ways to relax: the unique entrancement of glitter. Very simple and easy to make, these jars are filled with water, glue and glitter to create somewhat of a snow globe of glitter. The user can shake the jar then watch the colored glitter swirl and eventually settle in the bottom of the jar, creating a simple and easy way to de-stress.

6. Sunlight

One of the simplest ways to relax: some good ole' vitamin D. It is scientifically proven that being in sunlight and nature increases mood and mental health. Whether it's sitting outside reading a book or bird watching, being outdoors is a perfect, old-fashioned form of relaxation.
