1. Travel provides stress relief & lowers your risk of depression
By removing yourself from reality for a while, you reduce stress and negative emotions. Sufficient time away will reset your emotions. The benefits of vacation are not short lived, research has shown that happiness is improved and stress decreased for weeks after your vacation.
A study has shown that female subjects who vacationed less than once every two years were more likely to suffer from depression than women who vacationed at least twice a year.
2. Reduced risk of heart attack
Keep your heart healthy by taking a vacation! Studies have shown those who regularly took time off were 21% less likely to die from a heart attack. This is because people who take the time to travel are typically more active than those who don’t holiday.
3. Immune System boosting
When travelling , your body adapts to new bacteria. Research has shown that exposure to some dirt and minor illnesses makes your body and gut stronger. By exposing yourself to new places you’ll be boosting your immune system.
4. Help with Job performance
Ever returned to work after a vacation and thought… this isn’t so bad? Removing yourself from stress factors (which is usually your job) aid you in becoming happier and less stressed. This in turn helps you focus better and gives you increased quality of work on the job.
5. Keeps you fit
Travel helps you to step out of your comfort zone, do things you wouldn’t normally. Whether its skiing, hiking or simply getting out and walking around your destination. Trying something new is what travel is all about and usually this means getting out there and getting active. Even thinking about spending your vacation seaside in your swimwear might get you exercising before the trip!
