So you're ready to take a break and get away, but now may not be the perfect time? We get it. All that means is it’s the perfect time to start thinking about where you're going to visit next!
We know escaping isn’t always easy, particularly due to work-related responsibilities. According to the American Institute of Stress, over 40% of workers reported that their job was extremely stressful and half of millennials surveyed by Sleep Judge said they feel pressured not to take too many vacation days. Not exactly good news for your travel dreams. However, this mindset brings one seriously negative consequence: big time burnout. That’s why the President of the American Institute of Stress advises taking at least four vacations a year, even if they’re only short weekend getaways.
So, if you can’t jet off to Europe for two weeks, taking a tiny break can still be a game-changer. That’s because travel is the ultimate stress reliever and guess what? Planning is actually the best part. In fact, psychological research has shown that peak happiness actually occurs during the planning stages, because this invokes a feeling of “anticipatory happiness.”
So, are you ready to boost your mood, up your confidence and feel a bit happier again? Then it’s time to actually start planning that well-deserved trip.
