Imagine that you have just returned from vacation. What is your first internal comment?

Select an answer:

On vacation, you have the whole day just for yourself. How are you likely to spend it?

Select an answer:

I plan every detail so I don't miss anything. I will intuitively let myself be guided - whatever comes, I will experience it. I will take the time for self-reflection and rest. I will participate in activities – let there be fun. I can't just be – I need to deal with something.

Do you feel a bit disappointed after returning from vacation? What's behind that?

Select an answer:

I expected more changes or experiences. I returned to the same stress as before. I can't get back into the normal routine. I feel like my vacation slipped through my fingers. Maybe I didn't really relax during it at all.

How do you envision the ideal way to relax?

Select an answer:

Silence, nature, solitude. A good conversation with someone close. Planning for the future – that also calms me down. Complete disconnection from technology and obligations. To be in motion, to explore and discover.

What annoys you the most during a vacation?

Select an answer:

Disruption of my routine. Boredom – when nothing is happening. Too many people around. The feeling that I am wasting time. Unclear expectations or conflicts.

Which idea best describes your return to work?

Select an answer:

"Now it will be even harder than before." "I'm already looking forward to my rhythm and system." "Again the carousel..." "Rest helped me, I can move on." "I have to quickly catch up on what I've missed."

During your free time, you start to reflect on what you are doing in life. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I feel uneasy – something is probably off. I will start planning changes. I'll put those thoughts aside – now is not the time to deal with them. I'm frozen, I feel stuck. I know that rest is the first step to clarity.

What sound would you say best represents your vacation?

Select an answer:

The silence of the wind in the treetops. The sound of notifications you don't want to hear. Laughter of the people around. The breathing of the sea – regular, calming. The ticking of the clock - time that drags or slips away.

When someone says "perfect vacation," what comes to your mind?

Select an answer:

No responsibility, just freedom. A place where I feel I can be myself. A combination of relaxation and meaningful activity. Escape – the further from everyday life, the better. A space to discover something new within me.

What is your most common inner state during vacation?

Select an answer:

Tension - whether I'm doing what I should. Relief – at least for a while outside the system. Uncertainty – whether I will really allow myself to enjoy it. Curiosity – what will it bring me. Gratitude – that I can be where I am.
