Nowadays life is getting more hectic and it is becoming a daily challenge to meet lifes’ demands. We are all being pushed to do more and more whether at our work place, with our family and friends or keeping up with our studies. Stress has become a part of everyday life. Stress is known to cause a myriad of health conditions including hypertension, depression, backaches, migraines, and make vulnerable to common viruses. Studies demonstrate that stress, and its cumulative effects, are affecting the entire population at an alarming rate. More than 6 in10 Canadians admit they are experiencing “great stress” on the job or in daily life. Increased stress in daily life is a worldwide phenomenon and a matter of major concern. The World Health Organization has identified stress as a worldwide epidemic to be tackled seriously. There is a greater need today than ever before for people to take steps to relieve the impact of stress before it affects their health.
No one can escape from the impact of stressors (something stressful), since stressful situations are everywhere. What people need to do is learn how to relax in order to combat the effects of the stressful lives they lead. Resting and relaxing while surrounded by nature has proven to be a particularly effective de-stressing option for people after stressful or mentally fatiguing conditions. Studies by Morris (2003), Ulrich et al. (1991), Hartig et al. (1996), and Grahn & Stigsdotter (2003) confirmed that people choosing nature-based activities to relax themselves are rewarded with a speedy recapturing of normal physiological signs and symptoms.
Using the natural healing power of mother nature, Willow Beach Cottage Resort, an Ontario based lake resort, presents an array of stress relief options, around the dazzling Highlands region of Haliburton County. Being surrounded by lush forests, lake front vistas, hillocks, mighty Lake Kashagawigamog make Willow Beach cottage Resort an ideal spot to rest, relax and recover. For those with a desire to engage in more active nature pursuits there are options such as bike touring, snowmobiling, atving, and skiing that can be added to the accommodation experience. More recently a local company has launched outdoor experience packages ranging from guided bike tours, to nature-based culinary experiences (that’s right eating things right from the forest floor!), guided rock hounding and beyond. These can all be packaged into your stay at our Ontario cottage rental property.
