Creating a Wellbeing Culture

Who doesn’t love the idea of a staycation? That thing we used to do when we simply wanted to leisurely play tourist in our backyard and enjoy the comfort of our own homes. For me, and now many others, COVID-19 and the resulting lockdowns have taken the shine off that little treat. I’ve lost count of the conversations I’ve had with my friends this year where they have lamented how tired they are.

Without the imperative to beat the rush hour traffic, it’s too easy to spend longer hours at our desks, and with travel off the agenda many are less inclined to take annual leave. It seems staycations aren’t so appealing when there’s no option but to stay home. While exotic vacations may not be accessible at the moment, that doesn’t mean we should eschew breaks altogether. With opportunity for travel limited, a minibreak might be just the right alternative. Granted, it may not have the same regenerative benefits as two-weeks leave, but it still gives people something to look forward to, and a much-deserved reprieve from the stressors of the workplace
