With the holiday season said and done, we’ve braced ourselves for the winter weather to occur during
the next three months. It already feels as if we have been in winter for quite some time, but there are plenty of weeks left before it begins to warm up and we spring our clocks forward. Unfortunately for many in New England, the change of seasons can cause depression called seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
Seasonal affective disorder is common during the fall and winter months, and many attribute this depression to the lack of sunlight. Symptoms of SAD include many similar to depression including anxiety, hopelessness, lack of energy, difficulty sleeping, diminished appetite, weight loss, and more. If left untreated, SAD can be tough on a person’s health, especially as they remove themselves from their loved ones and are left alone more than before.
For this reason, as a travel agency in Massachusetts, Arpin Travel Services can’t think of a better reason to take a vacation. If you or a loved one you know suffers from SAD during a specific season, it is time to begin an annual vacation that gets you out of your home and to a great destination where you can soak up some sun and rejuvenate. The warm weather and vitamin D can be a vast improvement on many areas of your life, including many of those emotions you face in the cold winter at home.
Arpin Travel Services has been serving Massachusetts and other New England residents to help book great exotic vacations since 1978. With so many great connections with different vendors around the world, our professionals can help you create the perfect getaway that will improve your emotional state (and will be a blast at the same time).
