Thinking about summer holl’s now that it’s June? The benefits of taking a break could well be the kick your career needs. If you feel great, your approach to your job can only improve. Holidays benefits might seem obvious but what the hell…we’re thinking #SummerVibes and the livin’ is easy…List the ben’s…
Planning for the Psyche
It’s said that planning a holiday is as enjoyable as taking the holiday itself. If that much enjoyment can be had from planning, we’re keen to put that wish list into action.
Relaxing the Mind Body and Soul
The obvious one: It’ll be relaxing. Of course, we’d rather be laying by the pool, pina colada in hand, than we would be sat at our desks in 30-degree heat. #NoBrainer
Vitamin D
We’ve heard it before. We would get more sun if flexible working hours allowed or if we had more of it in London. Vitamin D from soaking up the rays will leave you feeling invigorated, energized and ready to get back to work with a newfound spring in your step.
Make New Friends
Many of us make friends on holiday every year. Once in full relaxation holiday mode, chatting to those on the same resort or on tours is the ideal time. Everyone’s relaxed and people have more time to offer. Reach out and notice how friendly banter is reciprocated.
Lose Weight
This might seem like a stretch. On holiday: lose weight? Seriously? Most of us gain weight when throwing off any rules or diets in a bid to set ourselves free and enjoy the downtime. However, if you’re stressed this could be preventing you from shedding the pounds. Reducing stress levels can actually help further weight loss. Besides, think of all those laps you’ll be doing every morning in the pool. (Yes you will, well, you might…you could.)
