Top 10 Favorite Pastimes Whilst Using a Recliner Chair

Snuggling into your favorite recliner chair is wonderful and, once you’ve tried a recliner chair it can be hard to imagine life without one.

Here's the top 10.

1. Watch a movie

Whatever your movie taste a recliner chair offers the optimum viewing experience. So, get yourself into the most perfect position and switch on the movie.

2. Read

People love to read while reclining in a chair. Nothing beats curling up in a comfortable reclined position with a good book. Throw in a nice cup of coffee or tea and who could ask for more?

Find the right recliner chair at The Recliner Chair Shop, one that has comfy soft foam padding, foam arms and a pillow back for superior lumbar support. No more cricked necks when you get completely absorbed in your book.

3. Enjoy a massage

This might not be the first thing you’d think of when you imagine relaxing in a recliner, but some models allow you to experience a relaxing or revitalizing massage from the comfort of your chair. 

4. Sleep

The experts tell us it’s good to nap when we need to, so help to recharge your batteries and revitalize your body. A short nap can improve brain function, boost memory and creativity, and sometimes be as restorative as a full night’s sleep.

A recliner chair is perfect for taking a nap, or even for longer sleep, if you need it. Designed for maximum comfort, our recliners have a manual push back mechanism and we also offer power recliners.

5. Listen to music

Lie back, close your eyes, and drift off to the Moonlight Sonata. If you have a smart phone or an iPod, you can absorb yourself in music without disturbing anyone else in the house.

6. Watch the world go by...

If you have a picture window or a bay window, it can be lovely to sit in your recliner and watch the world go by. If you choose one of our swivel recliners you will never tire of looking out of the window because you can just swivel back round to watch TV whenever you please.

7. Write

Many writers say that the secret to penning a best-seller is to get into a completely relaxed state of mind. A recliner chair is a great place to relax and allow your imagination to wonder, whether your preference is to write on a laptop or in an old-fashioned notebook.

8. Knit

Whether you love to knit and natter, or knit in sublime isolation, a recliner chair can help you get into the most comfortable position possible. Some of our recliners have a handy drinks holder, which you can use to rest your needles and wool, and a handy side pocket for popping your latest creation in when you’re finished.

9. Daydream

We spend a lot of time letting our minds wander. Scientists estimate 30-50% of our waking time is spent daydreaming. The jury’s out on whether this is a good thing or a bad thing but, the fact is, it’s something we do a lot so why not do it in a comfortable position?

A recliner chair lends itself to uninterrupted daydreaming.

10. Cuddle the kids or grandkids

Kids love recliner chairs. There is something rather wonderful about snuggling up for a story with mum, dad, granny or grandpa in their big, soft recliner chair.

There are plenty of things to love about a recliner chair, asides from the fact they are practical, affordable, and offer a simple way to relax in any room of your choice.
