On August 15 we celebrate - really - Relax Day, a day that is completely dedicated to rest and relaxation. This day should remind us how important it is to take a step back every now and then, let go of the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy a moment of pure relaxation.
What is Relax Day?
Relax Day was invented by the American journalist and author Thomas Roy and his wife Ruth Roy. They created several funny and unusual holidays in the 1980s, including Relax Day. The idea behind this day is to encourage people to take a break from their hectic lives and take time for themselves to relax and unwind. Although the day originated in the United States, the concept has become popular worldwide as the importance of relaxation and self-care is universally recognized.
