Staycation 101

While the feeling of being able to travel over break can be fun, the joy of being able to relax at home on a staycation is just as satisfying. There is no wrong way to have a staycation, since the focus of them is to care for oneself and take a break from stress.

Feeling comfortable while on a staycation is very important. Wearing comfortable clothes help relax the body, which will lead to the feeling of rejuvenation after the staycation is done. Staycations are good for both mental and physical health, so drink lots of water and prioritize sleep.

Stress will always exist no matter the situation. It is important that throughout the staycation as little stress can be created as possible. To create a low-stress environment, focus on hobbies and feel-good activities.

Despite the location, it is important to relax and have an enjoyable break before the next school year. Take the time to improve both mentally and physically, find new hobby, watch a new show or read a good book. Story by Annabella Burns.
