You can integrate that relaxing holiday mode into your daily routine! The good news is that relaxing holiday mode is just as available at home. Read on for five simple ways to bring the magic of your holiday into your everyday life, so that stress becomes a little less dominant and those shared holiday memories last for years to come!
Bring a piece of vacation home with you
Let the children tell them about their holiday experiences
Your children certainly have many exciting stories and experiences from their holidays to tell. Whether in kindergarten, family or friends. Let them tell their adventures and maybe even keep a small memory book. These stories are not only entertaining, but usually the children have also collected completely different impressions and holiday memories than you. It can be a wonderful opportunity to bring the holiday to life again.
Cooks a dish from vacation after
Another nice ritual is to cook a dish that you particularly enjoyed on holiday. Be it the pasta from Italy, the Käspätzle from the mountains or a fresh salad from Greece – while cooking and enjoying together you can reminisce and bring home the taste and smells of the holiday. These culinary excursions are not only a pleasure for the palate, but also a nice way to spend time together.
Show your holiday pictures
Holiday photos have the magical ability to take us back to the most beautiful time of the year in no time. Share these special moments with family and friends – show grandpa, grandma, aunts and friends your photos, preferably in printed form. Maybe the pictures also find their place in a special album or decorate the wall and bring a piece of holiday joy into your everyday life.
Bringing holiday rituals into everyday life
On vacation, you certainly had a few special rituals – be it breakfast on the terrace, dinner outdoors or a daily walk on the beach. Sometimes it’s the little things that you don’t notice yourself on vacation, but I’m sure you’ll find something. Start the day with a cozy breakfast on the balcony or make it a tradition for you to prepare a delicious dinner together at the weekend. These small rituals bring back the holiday magic and make life more enjoyable even in everyday life.
With these simple tips, you can bring the relaxing holiday feeling into your everyday life and enjoy small breaks throughout the year. Take the opportunity to bring a little more holiday magic into your life – you really deserve it!
