Hammocks are a great way to take the pressure off your spine, engage your vestibular system, and most importantly, send us into a blissful state of relaxation. There's a reason that gently rocking babies can help put them to sleep, and the same goes for adults.

Not only can you lose track of time with your head buried in between the pages of a novel when you're looking for some alone time, but they're also a great way to wind down with your spouse after a hard day at work. The ultimate romantic escapism.

Hammocks nowadays aren't restricted to being between two sturdy trees, as there are many options to find a steel-framed stand that the hammock attaches to so you can place it anywhere in your yard.
