Are you stressing out over a big decision you have to make? Think things over while relaxing in a hot bath or Jacuzzi. Scientists at USC say making an important decision while you’re stressed, whether it’s the day-to-day kind, or stress due to that particular decision, it makes you more likely to focus on the possible negative outcomes. But if you wait until you’re calm to weigh the pros and cons, you’ll make a better choice, and be much happier with your decision.

It’ll mimic some of the health benefits. University of Oregon physiologists had sedentary people relax in a tub of hot water – roughly 104-degrees – up to their necks, for about 15 minutes. And those who did that every day for 2 months had lower blood pressure and more flexible blood vessels. And on top of the heart benefits, exercisers also got relief from muscle and joint pain by soaking after a workout. That’s because a hot bath expands and relaxes blood vessels while increasing blood flow and oxygen.

If you catch a cold, here’s how to get over it faster: Take a hot bath. Researchers at the New York Nasal and Sinus Center found soaking for 20-minutes a day in a hot bath can shorten a cold by four days. That’s because viruses are heat-sensitive – so raising your core temperature helps kill them off faster.
