As our team gets ready to leave for France (Prostate Cancer Climb), I'm reminded of the need to periodically take a break from everyday responsibilities and rejuvenate your mind and body. While we're going to Europe, you do not have to travel that far.

You're probably aware of how great a vacation feels when you're overworked and over-stressed. How about scheduling some downtime each week or month to refresh yourself?

Even if you don't have money to travel, consider taking a walk through a forest, on a local beach, or even just around your neighborhood.

If you're over doing it, there is nothing better to get you back on track than a simple break from responsibilities. Whether it's 20 minutes or a day or a weekend camping trip, a break can do wonders for your life and your money. The best thing about this is that it won't cost you anything but gas money and picnic food.
