Health benefits of vacations
Jul 24, 2024 12:12 am
Happy Tuesday, !
You probably donโt need another reason to take a vacationโฆ๐
But as it turns out, vacations are seriously good for your health!
And did you know that almost half of all Americans donโt use up all their paid time off every year!?
Here are just a few reasons to book your next breakโฆ
Taking vacations is linked with a lower risk of high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and metabolic syndrome โ which are all related to heart disease
ANDโฆ during vacations, weโre more active, get more sleep, and have less stress โ all of which are tied to better health!
In other studies, active outdoor vacations (like hiking or camping) that last at least a week offer the best health payoffs, but shorter vacations still give you plenty of benefits.
And hereโs a biggie: taking fewer, shorter vacations is better for your health than taking only one big vacation a year, even if it means taking occasional long weekends instead of a full-blown week off.
Of course, youโll get even MORE benefits from your time off if you stick with your healthy habits while youโre there: being active, eating healthy whole foods, etc.
It just goes to show you that a well-rounded approach is BEST when it comes to reaching your health and fitness goals.
Committed to your success,
