Plan a Vacation
The everyday routine can be stressful, so it’s important to get away once in a while. It doesn’t have to be a long vacation; even a short weekend trip can increase your happiness and reduce your stress levels. Going on vacation can be a real shot in the arm:
- Vacation planning can be a great activity for improving mental health
- Short trips are more than good enough
- When on vacation, don’t worry about work and turn off that work email!
- Don’t be sad when you come back from vacation, but be excited for the next one
