Holidays offer not only pleasure but allow us to escape from the intense, chronic, continuous daily stress. For people who want to live many healthy years, diminishing stress through holidays is a necessary precondition. |
July 2005
It is summer time and inevitably we are thinking about holidays. But are we ready to leave behind us the daily burden of problems and worries that we carry with us all the year around? And if we do so, will we keep them in a safe distance from us so that we will not compromise or even spoil our precious vacation time?
More and more people nowadays stay linked with their working environment during holiday time. Modern communication systems facilitate this but simultaneously may spoil the necessary rejuvenating and revitalizing effects of holidays to our health.
Being in contact with the problems that constantly and inevitably arise at the work place, may negatively influence not only us but as well our family, children and friends that spend their holiday time with us.
Research has shown the detrimental effects of the lack of good quality holidays on somatic and psychological well being. This is even more important for people on top managerial positions who have more responsibilities and obligations.
With this thoughts in mind we are attaching with our 30th monthly Progressive Newsletter an article about Work, holidays and wellness that we believe you will find interesting.
We believe that you will find this interesting and that it will help you to reconsider the irreplaceable, beneficial effects of summer holidays that are sufficient in duration and of good quality, free from any work place related upheaval and worries.
Me and my colleagues at Progressive Insurance Company we wish you very nice, peaceful and restful summer holidays.
