A Deeper Fulfilment of Owning a Hot Tub – From a Hot Tub Owner

April 29, 2021

Family time with no mobile or x-box interruptions!

If you are wanting to engage with family members and have deeper important conversations and improve your work family synergy, there is no better time to get a hot tub.
Working from home and the modern way we now live, engagement and relationships with family members are more essential than ever.
If you are lucky enough to have a teenager lodging at your house :o), those years can be the trickiest at the best of times. As a parent to one said teen, and a parent that owns a hot tub, one behavioural improvement I noticed was as soon as we started regularly spending time in our hot tub, his mobile phone could not accompany us. Instead he spent calming time in a safe area relaxing without his much valued mobile or Xbox! After a while we soon discovered that he started opening up more and talking more freely about his feelings and day to day struggles that were bothering him. We even joke and call it the ‘Tub of Truth’, as we can go over those feelings that are usually hard to uncover. By talking with our son, this enabled us to reduce any anxiety he may have had, regardless of the topic.
Covid really highlighted the daily use of Information Technology in our life. Our children escaped to their worlds, as we felt this was the safest option of allowing them essential engagement with their friends. Now we are returning to some normality, the tolerance of allowable screen time needs to be reduced. This is where we found the hot tub has been brilliant in taking them away from the computer, for creative and essential engagement with their parents & other family members. We talk, play games, tell bad jokes and overall watch the sunset, it does make you feel very blessed.
