Do You Have Some Serious FOMO Right Now?
FOMO is fear of missing out, and many of us wish we were on vacation instead we are busy watching our friends and family post on social media on how epic their vacations are.
Did You Know That Planning a Vacation is Good for Your Mental Health?
Psychologists have been talking about the mental benefits of vacationing somewhere new for several years now. According to National Geographic "One 2013 survey of 485 adults in the U.S. linked travel to enhanced empathy, attention, energy, and focus. Other research suggests that the act of adapting to foreign cultures may also facilitate creativity." It isn't just experiencing a new place that will give you a mental health boost, the art of planning a trip also boosts our mental health.
A 2014 Cornell University study showed how the sheer anticipation of a new experience can increase your happiness more than retail therapy. To add to that, there was a study published by the University of Surrey in 2002, that found that humans are happiest when they are anticipating some vacation. So basically, we all need to get lost somewhere new.
