Take short break imagining that you are on vacation

Take short breaks. While you cannot go on a major vacation every week, you certainly can go on a minor one. A short break begins with closing the door of office, holding all calls and relaxing in chair. Then close your eyes and begin taking deep breaths.

Let your mind and body feel relax and once you feel deeply at peace, begin to imagine that you are walking through a mountain meadow, you are walking on the bank of river, you are walking on the dewy grass, you are having fun or playing with your family, you are on world tour, you are at your favorite beach, you are playing your favorite game and savor the splendor of the snow-capped mountains.

Vividly see the colours, hear the sounds and feel the emotions that these special places are evoking you. During this short break imagine every beautiful moments of your life that you have spent and further you expect for. After only a few minutes of this mental escape, you will be rejuvenated, ready for the rest of the day ahead. Our minds are extremely potent devices. The subconscious mind cannot tell the difference between an image that we envision and one that is real. So this little technique actually fools it into thinking we are taking this quick break from our daily routines and invokes many of the wonderful physical benefits of a real vacation.
