New Surroundings Can Reduce Stress

Novelty is rejuvenating, and human beings thrive on it. New sights, sounds and scenes are stimulating for your mind and body, encouraging the learning process and providing an active distraction from the small worries that can fill your day.

Taking time out of your familiar surroundings and your regular schedule can also give you the space you need to really relax: one study found that men who didn’t take an annual vacation had a 30 percent higher chance of dying from heart disease than their traveling peers.
