How To Cope With Post Vacational Syndrome

Most people probably think of this in relation to the difficulties of getting back into work and other routine after you return to your countries from holidays in the Canary Islands. When you think of people living year round on a "holiday paradise island", it's actually difficult to imagine them taking a holiday, but they do and they suffer the same trouble getting stuck back in as you do.

According to this article at Canarias Ahora, 79% say that having a few beers with friends and family helps. Another 68% decide to eat a more healthy diet, but 65% go out for "an aperitif". These, say the Canary Islanders surveyed, are the easiest habits to maintain after their vacations to help overcome post-vacational syndrome. On the other hand, sticking to the diet for the "operation bikini", resting more and being on time for work are the most difficult.

Personally, I love the bit at the end of the article where it says that "beer is a part of the Mediterranean diet: made with natural ingredients, such as water and barley; does not contain fats and provides vitamins, minerals and other substances with functional properties." Any blinking excuse!
