Getting back from a fun and memorable vacation is one of the things that can make anyone feel down. It's hard to get back to your daily life without feeling a little sad wishing you can pause the time when it was still the holidays.
But, cheer up! There are ways to cope with those negative emotions so you can get back that bright outlook before returning to your daily life.
Plan out for the next trip
When you're on vacation, it is the experiences and moments that matter and you can make them happen again, which is why you can already plan for your next vacation and trip as early as now. According to a 2010 study, planning alone can already lead to increased feelings of happiness and excitement. So if you're feeling a little down in the office and got nothing to do, you can probably browse the web and check your calendar for when you can possibly take off on your next destination.
Plan your first week back as a week for fitness
You probably have lost track of your shape during the holidays because of the busy schedules and the overwhelming food and now is the time to be back on track when it comes to fitness. It's time to lose those holiday fats. Not only will that make you feel better about yourself, exercise can also make you feel happier.
Connect with friends
The holidays are not the only time when you should be spending time catching up with friends or family members. You can do the same even after the holidays. Make plans to see them face to face after your work or probably during your days off. Not only will this become healthier for you, it will also lessen the feeling that the holidays are over because nothing much is changed, except that you're back to work.
