Happy National Hammock Day!
Hammocks make great camping gifts!
National Hammock Day exists and you should celebrate it!
We’re not sure of the origin of the all-important National Hammock Day which occurs on the 22nd of July every year.
What we do know is that R & R is not only fun, but it is necessary.
Take time to recharge your body whether it be on a camping trip or in your own backyard by relaxing in a comfortable hammock!
Psst we’re compensated…see our disclosures.
5 Awesome Ways To Celebrate National Hammock Day
Not sure how to celebrate this glorious day? We’ve got help!
#1 Relax in a comfortable hammock … of course!
No matter where you are on July 22, take a moment to find a little shade and kick back in a hammock to celebrate the day!
You may even relax to the point that you take a snooze in your hammock … but, make sure your book and drink are within easy reach when you wake up!
#2 Sip a refreshing cocktail
Don’t get thirsty … enjoy a refreshing drink as you sit back and enjoy the view while relaxing in your hammock!

#3 Read your journal and make new entries!
Think outside the box and capture your ah-ha moments from your camping experiences!
Cool things happen when you get outside and encounter nature … National Hammock Day is the perfect opportunity to take time to reflect on your experiences.
#4 Listen to your favorite music.
Get transported without moving an inch by listening to your favorite music!
I recommend using a portable bluetooth speaker with hi-quality sound … but … be sure to choose your music wisely because it will set the tone for your day!
National Hammock Day is all about relaxing but if you want to rock out while celebrating the day … go for it!
#5 Dive into an inspirational book.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics report published by the U.S. Department of Labor, the average American spends about 5 hours of leisure and sports time on an average day and a measly 17 minutes of that is spent relaxing and thinking!
That tells me we need more than one National Hammock Day per year!
