49 Awesome Things On Amazon For Relaxing Your Body & Mind

By Andrea Hannah

No matter how much you want to get after it all day, everyday, sometimes, you need to get real with yourself: Your mind and body need a break. On one hand, shutting down the hardwired hustle isn't exactly easy. But on the other hand, you don't have to do it alone — these super relaxing things on Amazon might be able to help.

First up: your body. No matter how much you work out or dine on organic, plant-based meals, your body has to chill out at the end of the day. And I mean all the way. To catch some sleep that'll actually rejuvenate you, you want to look for products that either stifle or soothe your senses. For example, this sleep headband does a great job of drowning out light and noise so you can drift off, while luxurious scented oils and bath salts will help relax and release muscle tension.

But be sure not to forget about your mind, too! It needs just as much downtime and TLC as your body, which is why coloring books and insightful journals are a great way to wind down. If that's not your jam, consider something really relaxing to look at (like a warm nightlight) to help calm stressed-out thoughts before you sink into your bed.

What if you're not sure exactly what you need? I've got you. Here's a round-up of some of the most calming things on Amazon, so you can finally zen out.
