Always ready and available at any time – in the age of the smartphone, constant availability is a must. Many employees are called one or more times a week outside working hours. Among executives, the percentage is as high as 90 percent, which means that almost all 'affected' are demonstrably exposed to higher levels of stress. Here we have some useful advice on how to combine vacation and work.
Tip 1:Phone off – relax on!
To always be able to deliver ideas and strategies at work, it is essential to get out of work regularly. A study confirms that laziness and boredom promote creativity. If you have to be available for colleagues on holiday, fixed times must be set when the mobile phone is switched on. Provided family, friends and colleagues are informed in advance about the scheme, everyone involved wins.
Tip 2:Doing nothing promotes the regeneration of body and mind!
Clear your mind – this is the recipe to recharge your batteries for stressful times. If you're not doing anything, it's often helpful to take a long walk in nature, where those seeking relaxation can fully enjoy the surroundings and the view. A walk in the woods can even absorb some of the nutrients that the soil releases into the air. The following applies:Always keep a notebook and pen handy! Usually the best and most innovative ideas come to you when your body and mind are relaxed.
Tip 3:Culinary enjoyment is allowed!
A healthy and balanced diet supports well-being and fitness. It is equally important to include foods in the diet that will ensure a balanced mind and a healthy body. If you don't want to be so strict with your food, treat yourself to something sweet every now and then - an apple pie or a glass of wine also contribute to "well-being" and "well-being" across the board.
Tip 4:Keep your eyes peeled when choosing a partner!
Before going on a relaxing vacation, everyone should think carefully about who will accompany him or her and carefully choose the travel partner. It is important to coordinate the expectations of the holiday in advance, otherwise disagreements can inevitably arise. For example, it can be useful to define joint activities or desired individual activities in advance.
Tip 5:Good preparation is half the battle!
Where do you need to go? The imagination knows no bounds – whether it's a wellness weekend in the mountains or an Ayurveda retreat in Sri Lanka – it's important to leave everyday life at home and choose a quiet place. Don't forget to plan the trip in advance. Because even a short wellness trip can fall into the water.
