Taking a Vacation is Good for Your Health

Improve Your Health by Taking a Vacation

When considering your New Year resolutions, make sure that taking a vacation is one of them. RCI declares January 30th as National Plan for Vacation Day and we couldn’t agree more! Taking a vacation is not only fun, it’s good for your health too. See what Blue Cross and Blue Shield had to say about vacations and your health:

“Taking time off from work and your daily routine to enjoy a vacation is actually good for your health, and some people tend to ignore vacations when they think about the positive factors that help in leading a healthy lifestyle. Reducing your risk of certain health factors, lowering stress and improving job performance are just a few of the major benefits of enjoying time off on your next vacation.

An annual vacation can decrease the risk of heart attack. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), middle-aged men who were at high risk for coronary heart disease who also took frequent vacations over the nine-year study period were 32% less likely to die of heart disease.

Vacations can limit risk of depression and boost relationships. A study by Marshfield Clinic found that the women who took frequent vacations—two or more per year—were less likely to become depressed and reported greater satisfaction with their marriages than those who didn’t take the time off to relax from life’s daily stressors.

Time away increases performance at work. According to the New York Times, an internal study conducted by Ernst and Young in 2006 revealed that employees’ year-end performance ratings improved significantly—by eight percent—for every 10 additional hours of vacation they took that year.”

Plan For Vacation Day

We think it’s time for you to claim your vacation days! According to RCI, “Fifty-two percent of workers who say they set aside time each year to plan their vacation actually use all of their time, while only 40 percent of those who don’t plan in advance use all their PTO. To encourage workers to plan, Project: Time Off created National Plan for Vacation Day.” This was created to help you plan the vacation you deserve.
