It is the fault of this substance that you are unhappier in September

Making little moons with your feet in the sand, enjoying a liquid lunch, and sleeping until it's too warm to stay in bed. Celebrating vacation is a delight. But in September, free time is over for almost everyone, which makes us just a bit unhappier when we return home.

A wise writer from America once said: no one needs a vacation as much as the one who just returned. My thought that you should plan and book your next vacation during a vacation is therefore not so crazy. The fact that we are just a bit unhappier in September has everything to do with this, as it causes our happiness chemicals to become unbalanced.

Those who celebrate vacation produce serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. Substances that create a feeling of happiness. The intake of alcohol, spending time with loved ones, but also good food (and of course drugs and nicotine for the enthusiasts) contribute to the production of these substances. For convenience, let's assume you spend your vacation this way, causing all those substances to rise to great heights. Add to this the beneficial effect of vitamin D, as you spend a lot of time outdoors, and you are demonstrably happier during a vacation.

You can guess three times what breaks down those substances. Yes: stress, stress, and more stress. Unfortunately, for most people, stress is related to work, which means a stunning 60 percent would prefer not to return to work after vacation. Do the math, that's more than 1 in 2 people. Returning to the workplace makes you irritable, tired, and leads to a lack of concentration. While you would think you could return to work rested and sharp.

Of course, we are not easily caught off guard and we will solve it for you, for example, you should always do this when you return from vacation.
