Coming home from a summer holiday to work, dirty dishes and the daily commute can really get you down. No matter whether you spent your days off on an exotic adventure holiday, city break or spa weekend, returning home can often feel depressing and put you in a slump. In order to keep the post holiday blues at bay when you’re re-adjusting to life at home, we recommend following our tips below.
Recreate the experience
One way you can combat the shock of returning home is by re-creating the elements you loved from your getaway. Try re-creating local dishes, filling your house with scents that remind you of that special place and talking with friends you made while you were away..
Get a mobile massage
If you’re missing the feeling of being pampered, why not carry on the luxury treatments when you get home by ordering a Thai massage. This style of treatment will not only leave you feeling relaxed and revitalised but should also balance your energy channels and may help you to appreciate your home more.
Keep hydrated and healthy
You may be feeling worse than you should post-holiday due to dehydration and sleep deprivation. Once you’re back at home try to get back into a healthy routine again. Stick to your gym programme and be sure to drink as much water as possible.
Book things to look forward to
Being home shouldn’t all be doom and gloom. If you can’t think of anything but your next holiday try booking in some fun activities to occupy your mind. Tickets to the theatre, a spa day or a day trip close to home can all help.
Make some changes
If it’s been a few days and you’re still not happy at home then maybe you should think about making some changes. Focus on the positive elements of your life and try to remove all the negative aspects you no longer enjoy. See your holiday not as an escape but as a perfect time for reflection and use it to propel change.
