If your significant other questions your announcement that you’re planning a girlfriend getaway with your closest pals, explain your reasoning and you’re likely to get buy in. According to scientific research, getaways with members of your squad are not just good for your health, but they can even improve the relationship you leave behind.
You need to periodically take breaks from life’s stressors by escaping to a place where you relax and have fun, notes Stacey Feintuch, whose article on the topic was so engaging, it appeared on two websites. That means leaving demanding kids, partners, and jobs behind. Where’s the best place to go right now? Belize, of course. It’s close to home and everyone speaks English, so no other destination will do.
What’s up with this research? Is it bogus?
Hardly. It’s true science yet you probably had no clue that girls’ trips have the power to release oxytocin, a neurotransmitter known as the love or trust hormone, according to medical study results published on the U.K.’s Brill.com journal website. Oxytocin releases “make you feel happy, trusting, generous and friendly,” and for older women, girlfriend trips are therapeutic.
Supportive friendships late in life help some women avoid chronic illnesses, according to another study on the power of personal relationships. There’s more. Close girlfriend ties help women live longer and may even help ward off the onset of dementia. And you thought your girlfriend trip was just an excuse to buy a new bathing suit!
Spend your girlfriend getaway at Chabil Mar
No Belize girlfriend getaway delivers on as much carefree fun as one taken at Placencia Belize’s Chabil Mar Resort where you won’t be ridiculed for doing absolutely nothing by lying in the sun on a private beach that’s uncrowded and pristine alongside your best buds. Shopping trips to villages on the peninsula are mandatory, if only to bring back souvenirs for the people you love.
Want to pump up enthusiasm for this girlfriend getaway? Gather the group members. Pour some wine. Play this video for everyone. You’ll be asked to repeat it! You’re going to get buy-in without hesitation as you contemplate the adventure, bonding and fun that awaits.
Expect one gal pal to raise the issue of money!
It’s likely that at least one member of your posse will bring up the subject of her family budget, so be prepared to talk Belize vacation packages that cover all expenses, including gorgeous accommodations, delicious meals (no cooking; no washing up, ladies!), and so many extras, you would be hard pressed to beat the value.
Still not convinced? How about exploring Chabil Mar’s current special: Stay for 4 nights but pay for just 3 or linger longer for a full week but only pay for 5 nights? There’s a deadline to be observed when it comes to these deals: It’s only good through September 30, 2021, so hesitating too long could put a fast end to your shared dream.
Watch that video again. If images of the rest, relaxation, choice of two infinity swimming pools and endless wine toasts to the wonder of friendship and the shared joy of just being together don’t push your group to say yes, we urge you to remember that girlfriend weekends can help you live a longer, healthier life!
