Vacations as a relaxation tecnique

VACATIONS

Vacations are not luxuries; they are necessities. From the viewpoint of big business, the chairman of the board of a major corporation not long ago remarked: "We regard the rest period as a vital component of a year's total work situation, and I constantly remind our people that they II t' not scoring points with the corporation by refusing to take their valuations. 

Physicians have observed that non-vacation-takers often are plagued by poor mental and physical health, family conflict, and inefficient work performance. A consultant in psychiatry and neurology at one of the largest corporations in the country recently reported that "Between 85 and 90 percent of the problems that psychiatrists see at work are the results of off-the-job troubles, and many of these could at least be lessened by more frequent recreation and regular vacations."

For both man and woman, a proper vacation is important for both physical and mental health. And the essence of a proper vacation, at least for most people, is a complete change from the usual routine. It is possible to stay home and have vacation-doing things in the garden, the workshop, and the library, going to ball games, golf links, theater, and beach. 

This can save money and avoid some of the frustrations and disappointments sometimes involved in going away. But generally you can have a better and more rewarding time by going away; a complete change of scene and of people usually helps to improve morale. Should a family vacation together or separately? There is no hard-and-Last rule.


If tastes differ markedly, the family that is together all year long may well profit most by taking separate vacations. When tastes are much the same, the joint vacation may be more enjoyable. And there are families who enjoy vacations on the basis of compromise, doing this year what one member enjoys most, next year what another does. 

There are no clear-cut guidelines for how long a vacation should last. For some people, a two to four-week vacation once a year works well. More and more now, there is a trend toward dividing up vacation periods find taking two or more vacations a year. This, too, has its advantages on many people.
