Are work pressures ruining your time off?
There’s no question that we all need a break from time to time to recoup and recharge.
However, workload pressures can guilt us into feeling like we are unable to fully step away and clock out. We worry that when we return, we will have work mounted and catching up may seem like a daunting task!
Your (well-earned) holiday allowance is there to make sure your wellbeing and mental health don’t suffer. Taking time off need not be anxiety ridden. We want to be able to enjoy those Mai Tais in the sun, without thoughts of emails, unanswered calls and inconveniencing our fellow colleagues at the forefront of our minds.
Mid-level management often feel the most pressure, with more than 15 days left unused in some cases (that’s two full working weeks of down-time!)…
…but how do we switch off?
In a world where mobile technology has given us the power to be fully accessible wherever we are, at any time in an ‘always-on’ culture, it may well be convenient, but as a result, our mental and physical health may suffer.
We often talk about self-care, but it can be difficult in a world that values hard work and productivity. However, it’s important to remember we cannot fill from an empty vessel.
