With only a few days available each year, I’ve always tried to pack my vacations with as much activity as possible.
However, this is the first time I’ve decided to follow advice that I’ve heard from multiple people, multiple times, over multiple years: take two weeks to rest; it’ll take one week to unwind, and one more to recharge.
During this time, I’ve switched off from all work. I’m still reading, writing, and exercising, but only because it’s fun—not out of obligation.
I’ll report back at the end and let you know how I feel.
What tactics do you used to recharge?
