4 Best Reasons to Pack Up for a Vacation in a Forest Retreat

Top Benefits of Vacationing in a Forest Retreat

Here are some of the best reasons why you should vacation in a forest retreat the next time you are planning a getaway:

1.      Get a Break from Technology

If you spend hours in front of your computer or phone screen scrolling through social media and a cluttered inbox, your eyes are deteriorating. With consistent exposure, you can age prematurely, incurring health conditions that can reduce your quality of life.

Leave the tech behind for a vacation in a fully-furnished cabin in a forest. The reduced screen time can help you re-focus on more important things than work – your overall wellness!

2.      Heal in the Fresh Air

Even if your workplace has the best HVAC system, you still breathe in some stale air, allergens and other pollutants circulating indoors. Your commute from home to your workplace and back again barely gives you a few minutes of fresh air, probably more smog than air.

Cut yourself off from the daily grind harming your lungs with a vacation in a forest retreat. The fresh air, scented with pine, will do wonders for your blood sugar, stress levels, blood pressure and heart rate. It will also help you unwind, which in turn, can reduce your depression and anxiety.

3.      Be a Kid Again!

It's been years since you felt like a kid with no worries. Running around and letting your imagination run wild are just some fun things you don't have time to indulge in as an adult. But there is no one to judge you in a forest.

Horseback riding, hiking, and snowmobiling are just some of the activities you can enjoy in Sitgreaves National Forest that will make you feel like a kid again. By frolicking in the fresh air as an adult, you can get a burst of healing endorphins and energy that will rejuvenate you. Enjoy downtime with zero inhibitions.

4.      Get Fit and Find Adventure

If your gym membership has gone unused for years because you cannot find time to work out, a few weeks of hiking in a forest retreat can help you jumpstart your motivation. Boasting unpaved hills and trails, it has a range of active pursuits that can get your blood pumping.

You can find forest trails dedicated to different activities, such as horseback riding, snowmobiling and hikes.
