7 Signs You Desperately Need a Break (and How to Take One This Weekend)
Desperate for a little break? Same. Between work, family, errands, and never-ending notifications, it’s easy to push rest to the bottom of the list. But when you’re running on empty, the best thing you can do is step away, even just for a couple of days.
That’s exactly what Last Minute May is all about – giving you the excuse (and a cheeky discount) to take that much-needed break. Throughout May, you can score 20% off when you book online and arrive within 7 days. No overthinking, no massive planning session… just a quick getaway to reset, recharge, and breathe.
Not sure if you’re overdue for a getaway? Here are 7 telltale signs you desperately need a break, and a friendly nudge to make it happen this weekend.
1. You’ve Googled “How to feel less tired” more than once this week
If you’ve been self-diagnosing with everything from iron deficiency to burnout, it’s probably time to close the tabs and open a booking page. A change of scenery can do wonders for your energy.
2. Your screen time is up and your patience is down
When the only greenery you’ve seen lately is your desktop wallpaper, it’s time to swap scrolling for stargazing. A couple of nights in nature can help reset your headspace.
3. Everything is irritating you – even the way your fridge hums
If small things are setting you off, it’s not them – it’s burnout. Take a beat, breathe in some fresh air, and give your nervous system a break from the noise.
4. You’ve been “just about to book a trip” for weeks
You’ve opened the website. You’ve browsed the cabins. You’ve told yourself you’ll check with your partner/friend/boss. This is your sign to stop hesitating and hit book.
5. Your idea of me-time is doomscrolling on TikTok in the bathroom
No shame, we’ve all been there. But there are healthier ways to indulge in some me-time, like a good book, warm campfire, and a couple of nights where no one’s asking what’s for dinner.
6. You’ve said “I need to get away” at least twice this week
You don’t need six months of long service leave. Just a weekend. Somewhere peaceful. Somewhere simple. Somewhere with a cabin or a campsite and a view of something other than your inbox.
7. You’re reading this instead of working
Hey, no judgement. But if you’ve made it this far, it’s clear: you need a break. Lucky for you, we’ve made it easy.
Your spontaneous weekend escape with 20% off is only a few clicks away. You know what to do…
