Are you like us, looking for ways to talk to your teenager or tween? If so, we’ve got tips in this article.

Hot Tubs Help Manage Stress

If you have a hot tub, or are thinking about purchasing one, we bet you’ve read the many articles on the health benefits. One of those is stress reduction.

As busy adults, the hot tub is a place of relaxation. It’s a spot where you can de-stress and let the day’s worries float away. The same is true of your tweens and teens.

Being an adolescent is stressful these days and comes with its own set of anxiety. And, hot tubs can help your teen manage stress in the same ways it helps you.

Hot Tubs Help Communication

One way kids can de-stress in the hot tub is by opening up to trusted adults in the hot tub. Perhaps you and your spouse are worried about your teenagers. You know they’re worried, but dragging them away from social media seems to be a struggle.

You can help your teen navigate their troubles by soaking in the warmth of a hot tub.

Because there’s no room for smartphones in the hot tub, you have their undivided attention.

There, in the warm, massaging waters, you can give your kids support by lending a listening ear. Or, you can sit quietly until they open up about their worries. You might hear about girlfriend/boyfriend issues, friendship problems, sports, extracurricular activities, and more.
