Spending Quality Family Time – Even in Short Bursts – Can Reset Stress Levels to Normal

According to the American Institute of Stress, 48 percent of Americans say work stress negatively impacts their personal life, while 35 percent stress out about how much their job actually interferes with family time.

There’s hope! The remedy lies in a weekend getaway with your family. Vacation destinations that offer something for the whole family help strengthen bonds and reduce stress levels. You don’t have to go abroad to truly escape. There are plenty of fully immersive vacation experiences just a short drive away.
