6. Vacation helps rejuvenate

Vacation is meant to be a time of respite during which you can rest and recharge – but for some, taking a break from work can be more stressful and arduous that going into the office. Planning a vacation, even a short one, allows an individual to unplug from the many different ways we are connected to our jobs. This always-connected mentality fuels three of the top five stressors, because we never give ourselves the opportunity to set things down and let our minds think of something else.

Stepping away for a vacation, even if only for a weekend, takes us out of the surroundings that perpetuate our need to engage in activities that cause stress. Add to this the fact that a vacation spent with family or friends fosters stronger relationships, and you have a stress-relief technique that effectively addresses most of the causes.
