While on vacation, you really want to change your surroundings, go somewhere, but where? It turns out that the distance a person moves away from home has a different psychotherapeutic effect on him.
Up to 100 km
A vacation close to home, for example, a trip to the country house or a hike with friends in the forest for a few days, is a great way to get rid of depression and mood swings that had rolled over. It will also be useful for people suffering from increased fatigue syndrome who find it too hard to be inspired for a long trip.
In order for such a vacation to bring as much benefit as possible, it should be as simple as possible, so as not to worry too much about the appearance, participate in collective activities, get enough sleep and be able to be in silence. The less comfortable the living conditions are, the … better.
Up to 500 km
Such a trip will be useful for people who have problems that are difficult to understand. During such a short journey, a person has the opportunity to calm down, and then move away from the problem, look at it from the outside. Gradually disturbing circumstances "sort out" as if by themselves, and it becomes easier for a person to find the right solution.
Up to 1500 km
Psychologists consider this distance to be ideal in order, on the one hand, to feel like a real traveler: it will be possible to completely break away from the familiar environment, to be in a different climatic or even time zone. On the other hand, such a trip will not be too tiring.
Up to 5000 km
As a rule, this is a trip to another country. It helps the brain to rebuild and start thinking in other categories. Such a journey will be useful for people who are "stuck" in a too harsh habitual rhythm of life. In this case, a short trip will not be enough to feel truly detached from the usual whirlwind. Unusual natural, linguistic and cultural environment will help to cope with this task.
Up to 10,000 km
This is a trip to another part of the world, something perceived as extreme. Such trips are worth undertaking against the background of general dissatisfaction with life. Such long-distance flights allow you to rise "above the bustle of life", look down at everyday life a little downward and again learn to enjoy life.
