Connect with Nature
There are so many benefits to spending time in nature. Your body literally takes in vitamin D just from being in the sun. There’s a relaxing and therapeutic effect of hearing the breeze in the trees and seeing the beauty of nature. Get out and take a walk. Explore some new trails. Sit and relax for a while on a bluff overlooking the lake. All of these things are easy to do with the many parks and natural attractions here at Lake of the Ozarks.

Take in Some Water Views
There's something peaceful and relaxing about sitting beside the water or having a view of the lake that makes you just breathe a little deeper and relax a little more fully. It is almost indescribable, but there is something we connect with that seems to take our attention away from the burdens of the day, even if only for a moment.

Get a Massage
When it comes to having a massage, the health benefits last beyond the time that you are paying for. Finding a masseuse that can give just the type of massage that is right for you can help recharge you and get you feeling like yourself again. Whether you like a Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, hot stone treatment, or a combination, you will find it available here at the lake.
Do Some Yoga
Stretching, breathing, meditating, and relaxing are all helpful for de-stressing. The Lake of the Ozarks is fortunate to have some outstanding yoga instructors that welcome people of all skill levels. Have you thought about trying paddleboard yoga? Or hot yoga? Are you completely new to yoga and just want to find out what it’s like? We encourage you to check out the possibilities here at Lake of the Ozarks.
Unplug and Unwind
Another helpful hint is to make a point to schedule a period of time where you unplug and step away from your phone and other technological distractions and just be present in the moment. We know that can be really hard in a busy and demanding environment. You handle your day-to-day demands like a champ. But sometimes it’s important to disconnect with the rest of the world so you can reconnect with yourself.
