THE HAPPINESS HOLIDAYS 

In this modern world "Happiness" and its popular sidekick "Well-Being" are the holy grail of our time.

One thing we know is that money can`t buy it- in fact on average people have grown no happier in the last fifty years, even though average incomes have more than doubled.

The good news is there are definitely things we can do to help- from working on our outlook, becoming more resilient, paying attention, practising gratitude and showing kindness to others.

In many ways happiness is an inside job but with a new age of spiritual enlightenment upon us we have a readily accessible cornucopia of ways to help from therapy to yoga, meditation and mindfulness, breathing techniques to practicing self care.

We have also realised that the mind-body connection is crucial to our overall wellness. What and how we eat, how and when we move our bodies have as much influence on our mental as our physical health.

“No medicine cures what happiness cannot.” ― Gabriel García Márquez

Other crucial happiness habits have gradually been lost in our quest for "stuff", the grind of the hamster wheel and our slavery to technology- Creativity, connection with nature, learning new skills and just merely being present and sensing the awe of the everyday.

We have devised The Happiness Holidays to bring a little bit of all of these things back into your life- Nature, Peace, Comfort, Tranquility, Culture, History, New places and experiences - as well as providing perfect spaces for you to relax, recharge and renew.
