By taking a digital detox during your time away is an opportunity to reduce stress levels and focus more on what is going on around you, including interacting and making memories with your loved ones.
The Perfect Time To Spend On Holiday
What is the perfect length of time to spend on holiday so you can fully relax?
Researchers at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands, set out to explore the effects of holiday length on health and wellbeing, and its relationship to positive after-effects.
The conclusion was that the perfect length is longer than eight days which is just the right amount of time to fully immerse yourself on your holiday in the Indian Ocean.
Often the first couple of days are when you are getting used to your new surroundings and getting a feel for the resort, then after you start to settle in and truly switch off and unwind…
