5 Reasons Why You Deserve a Break this Easter
Feeling burnout and interested in taking a break this Easter? Taking a break doesn’t just have to be about getting away. It can also be about reconnecting with loved ones, seeking adventure and exploring what’s out there beyond what you see every day.
Below, take a look at some of the reasons why you deserve a break this Easter.
1. You’ve been working too hard
You have been sitting at the same desk you were so eager to get back to since January, and those office walls suddenly start to feel a lot more suffocating than you remember.
There’s hardly any time to think, let alone take some time for yourself. Do you remember what it was like to simply sit back and do nothing? Or explore somewhere new? It’s time you revisited these vital life experiences.
Going on holiday really can open the door to this kind of mindset. Whether you’re looking to ran along the glorious beaches in Diani, or perhaps you want to take in the awe-inspiring views of the Nairobi city, whatever it is you’re after, you have every right to chase after it.
2. Christmas wasn’t REALLY relaxing
Christmas in a pandemic wasn’t really relaxing as it should. It was more of a stress inducing week disguised as one. Most people couldn’t travel or be together due to travel restrictions or for health reasons. And those who did catch up with family spend the time doing chores for the whole family that they barely had a little time to themselves. So make the most of those Easter holidays quickly approaching. Go away, and really find some time to rediscover yourself. You deserve a break!
3. Breaks are good for you
Breaks have a very positive effect on your health. The brain is more powerful than a lot of people realize, and if yours is clogged up with a tangled web of stress and anxiety, it’s time you took a break.
Stress can lead to a wealth of health issues, so going away is not only good for your soul, but it’s vital for your wellbeing too. A break will allow you to banish the stresses of everyday life, and focus more time on yourself. And not only will you feel relaxed when you’re away, you’ll also return to work feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on any new challenges.
4. You deserve a little more adventure
When you’re working 9-5, 5 days a week, and your weekends are constantly clogged up with catching up on work you just haven’t had time to do, adventure becomes the last thing on your mind.
But it’s not your fault, it happens to the best of us. We all want to succeed in our careers, and sometimes other things fall by the wayside. But taking the time to seek out a little more adventure can really help you feel like a new person, as well as re-centering your focus on what really matters in life.
Adventure is what gets our heart racing; it’s what makes life interesting and gives it that exciting edge. You deserve that just as much as anyone else does on this planet. So take the opportunity to get out there and see the world.
5. Breaks can improve your relationship
With the slog of everyday life, important relationships can sometimes suffer. You don’t always have time for your partner, or your children, and it can be incredibly easy to lose sight of what really matters. But going away together will help rectify this.
Spending time with loved ones will not only help repair any strained relationships, it could also give them a new lease of life too. If you take the time to remember why you really all came together in the first place, you may rediscover what it is you love about your family and friends; what it is that makes them the most important thing in your life.
You don’t have to jet off to the South Coast or some exotic places for you to take a break. A break away from the monotony is available in the heart of Nairobi city, at Longonot Place Serviced Apartments.
