Different Vacation - 8-day Challenge to Deeper Refresh

By M. K. Hegde Y.

This book covers 8 ideas over 8 days to help achieve much more rejuvenating vacation. You need about 10-15 mins for 8 days, ideally the consecutive ones for continuity. Feel free to write your notes in the space provided in the printed book or your own digital notebook. Enjoy the respective idea of the day. There are further reading sections in each chapter that illustrates the idea with a story. I hope you find a few gems and treasures in your journey.

Ideas for the 8 days are summarized below.

Day 1 – Be a curious kid, map your places. This chapter describes the idea of expanding awareness to unclutter the mind. This brings deeper relaxation

Day 2 – Know your guide, the explorer. This chapter is about self-exploration, acknowledging the realities of the past and moving forward, refreshing the purpose, likes and dislikes and so on. This helps in releasing emotional baggage and move forward. This also helps bring clarity and long-lasting fresh energy that you deserve from vacation.

Day 3 – Orchestrate events. Focus of this chapter is to emphasize on collective experience and collective success. This also reflects upon the idea of relativity, friction and people dynamics, maximizing results with minimal effort, turning resistance and conflicts into opportunity. This helps reduce friction and increase collaborative success that is deeply refreshing and rejuvenating.

Day 4 – Take bath in a clean lake. This chapter is about cleansing and purification. We are up to 90% water; water is beautiful when clean. This cleansing concept is however beyond taking bath; purification of various aspects including physical, mental and emotional, social and energy cleanse. Techniques such as meditation and silence are also covered in this chapter.

Day 5 – Awaken your artist. This chapter focuses on expressing the instincts of creativity, creatively solving problems, converting problems into opportunity with innovation and so on.

Day 6 – Dance with clock. This chapter is about alignment; alignment within, with others and rest of the world to bring harmony. Concept of Mindfulness, body clock and seasonal implications are described. Alignment improves wellbeing and tranquillity.

Day 7 – Learn to farm and harvest happiness. This draws parallels with farmers dealing with the good crop and weeds and emphasizes on the art and science of increasing happiness in life.

Day 8 – Get ready like a soldier. This chapter is about returning from vacation with readiness to take on new challenges, approach of planning and executing with a refreshed mind and energies.

I'm confident that you find this 8-day challenge transformational and its positive effects long lasting.
