The holiday season is coming up,
and you are planning to book a stay in one of the 5 star hotels in
Bangalore or 5 star resorts in Goa for that perfect getaway. We get that
you have planned this holi-day for a while now, and you intend to do
nothing but call room service and spend endless days in bed. This seems
like a good break, but it also helps to ensure that you you stay in good
shape or you will never be able to get over the holiday once you head
back to work.
- A
holiday doesn't mean you go on a binge eating and drinking session and
just go from one hangover to another. You could enjoy your break and
still stay fit, emotionally and physically. Yes, if you are interested
in indulging in one of the adventure sports, sailing or other water
sports during your stay in Goa, do so by all means. But, make sure to
also keep yourself well-rested, and hydrated. A balance and a semblance
of routine should go a long way to help you get back on track. So, what
would you do if you were staying in one of the 5 star resorts in Goa or 5
star ho-tels in Bangalore?
- Don't drastically alter your sleep
timings. If you wake up early every day, try to ensure you wake up
around the same time even during your holiday at one of the 5 star
hotels in Bangalore. Stay close to your regular bedtime as well. This
way, the momentum is maintained. If you have to fo-cus on work-related
matters, devote a certain time of the day, and do it, so you have a
stress-free transition to work.
- If you devote half an hour to
work-related tasks, ensure that you devote it to tying up certain loose
ends, sending out some mails, scheduling meetings or making future
appointments. Pick tasks that don't need too much mind space but still
need completion. Thank-you notes, reminders etc could all be done in
that space.
- The best way to stay productive over the long-term,
and not just during your stay in one of the 5 star resorts in Goa or
any other destination, is to meditate for a few minutes at the same time
eve-ry day. It helps you focus and stay energised and in harmony with
your present.
- A holiday is also a good time to catch up on
forgotten pleasures; a bit of reading and note-taking, a good swim
session that helps you stay fit or solving a crossword to stay sharp is
not a bad idea.
- If you are staying in one of the 5 star hotels
in Bangalore or any other destination, there is bound to be a
well-equipped gym. If you work out regularly, you should work out during
your holiday as well.
- If you have started a new habit or
broken an old bad habit, please don't take a complete break from them.
This could be counting calories or stopping smoking. It could be your
resolution to eat salads and veggies - 5 star resorts in Goa or
whichever premium resort you are on a holiday in will have healthy food
options to help you stay fit.
- Staying in one of the 5 star
resorts in Goa or Bangalore also gives you access to the spa, where a
line of Ayurvedic and Western healing therapies are available. Make full
use of the spa; opt for massages or healing methods that will rid you
of your stress and exertions. You will head back home all batteries
recharged.
