In our race for knowledge, career growth and financial well-being, we often forget about the need for rest.
Work is with us 24/7, we don't get enough sleep and we neglect physical activity.
Some of us can live in this mode for several months, others for years, but sooner or later the constant race for goals leads to burnout, crisis and nervous breakdowns.
Proper rest is important, the doctor of the HappyDerm medical center Lyudmila Artyushkevich gave several recommendations that will be a revelation for most.
Alternate activities
If you spend a lot of time studying or working, allow yourself to walk in the park or ride a bike. If your body is tired from physical activity, watch an interesting movie.
If you are constantly in contact with people, find time to read a book in solitude. The variety of activities helps your body to rest and switch, restoring energy for new tasks.
Get new impressions
One of the best ways to relax is to go on a trip. Explore new places, immerse yourself in vivid impressions and absorb new information. It is especially useful to start a vacation by actively disconnecting from work problems and fully immersing yourself in a new environment.
Don't neglect your vacation
Don't put off your vacation for "later." Allow yourself time to rest and recuperate. Rested and energetic people are more productive and successful in their work. Plan your vacation in advance and enjoy your well-deserved rest.
Separate your personal life and work
When you are on vacation, try to completely disconnect from work-related matters. Remove yourself from work chats, ask colleagues not to call you. Allow yourself not to worry about work issues and completely relax.
How to organize a vacation
There are some tips.
Plan your vacation in advance
Planning your vacation in advance will help you avoid stress and unexpected situations during your trip, and will also reduce unexpected financial costs.
Relax before you feel tired
Minor fatigue can be quickly overcome, but severe fatigue requires a longer recovery. Splitting your vacation into several weeks throughout the year will be more reasonable than one long vacation lasting a month.
In addition, a short break of 10 minutes after a hard working hour is more effective than a long rest after an 8-hour working day.
Understand what type of vacation is right for you
The only way to determine what kind of rest is right for you is through personal experience. Try different forms of rest and pay attention to how they affect your performance, mood and mental balance.
Delegate your responsibilities
Get rid of the idea that everything should be done only by you. Distribute household chores among all family members. This will help improve the family microclimate, unite you and free up additional time.
Communicate with people
Socializing with others is essential to maintaining health and well-being. When you're on vacation, take the time to spend with family and friends. This will help you relax and reduce stress.
