Take regular villa holidays in Florida to keep feeling refreshed

Britons could be encouraged to take more villa holidays in Florida as a way of keeping them happy and healthy.

Research carried out by an expert at Radboud University in Holland showed that while everyone looks forward to a break, the benefits of going away are lost within just two weeks of being back in the office.

The answer, according to the expert, is to go away more often.

"Vacations give people the opportunity to (re)connect to family, partners and friends. They help us to 'refill our batteries', remain productive and perform on high levels. The fact that the after-effects are short-lived only emphasises that we should go on a vacation more frequently in order to keep our levels of health and well-being high," said Jessica de Bloom, publishing her findings in The Psychologist journal.

Among the benefits of taking a holiday abroad include relieving stress built up by work and family life, helping to rejuvenate both body and mind.
