Quick and Easy Vacationing

By Ran Percey

I’m sure you have heard the term, “less is more”, however very few people think this way about vacations, in fact the saying for vacations is more is always better. What is your feeling on this?

So many of us never feel or actually take “time off” because when we think of vacations, “time off”, or going anywhere to relax we think it has to be to some exotic vacation to Bali, Brazil, the Caribbean and so we make excuses such as, “I can’t take that much time off work” or “it will cost too much money”; so the flight never gets booked and you never get any down time.

Let me suggest that if your office is one stuck on rigid rules for corporate sake, then you start small by adding some color to your space with real art, or instead of relying on old plastic in boxes and sorting folders you buy colored storage shelves, bins, and or boxes for filing away your paperwork and other necessary do-dads.

Medical studies have shown that even a little break from your regular daily grind at the off can boost your immune system, rejuvenated new cells within the body, and help you be more creative at the office place- when we shift our mental focus it increases circulation to other parts of the brain allowing more creativity and mental focus.

It must be mentioned that your back yard does not have to be big, just quiet, pest free and a place you enjoy, if you don’t enjoy the outdoors or it’s freezing where you live then obviously this would not work for you as a “vacation” spot. Since this article is featuring simple, inexpensive, out door vacation time I will continue

Water features in your backyard are an excellent way to unwind the mind and the body. Waters rhythmic flow allows the mind the let go of events, facts, and even the pesky to-dos all the while relaxing the tension in the muscles. (This is why you always find water features at a spa or massage house). When tendons are removed from the muscles your body is able to rejuvenate, heal, and regain energies lost. The water feature does not have to be a big, splashing water fountain, it can be a simple trickle from a cascading table fountain, or set up a hose to run on some rocks near by, or turn on the sprinklers. Turning on the sprinklers might sound a bit hokey, but I promise you even their steady flow and noise reducing ambience will rock you into bliss.

Before you are ready to jump out on an adventure check out what local attractions are available in your or surrounding states that are within a days driving distance, and then go for it. Taking time out of your schedule does not have to be time consuming or expensive it just means you actually have to leave your work at the office and be in the moment of what you are doing.
