Are you curious about where the term “island time” originated? It may surprise you to learn that it was coined by North American soldiers whose hometowns were freezing and snow-bound during winter months. As part of the U.S. Pacific island landing forces in World War II, yanks wrote home about settling into mindsets where time was measured by golden sunsets and mesmerizing waves and the pace was slow!
Sound like you could use an island time break to help you adapt to a slower, low-stress state-of-mind? “Island time is all about taking life at a slower pace and enjoying each moment as it comes rather than plowing through it to get to the next one,” according to a blog post from a legal firm where clients are invited to adopt this state of mind while going through the stress of lawsuits, trials, and other distressing legal events.
Must you experience legal issues to justify craving island time?
Heavens, no! If you are in need of healing, rest, and a break from the deadlines that stoke your stress and threaten your well-being, there’s a Belize island specializing in island time, and there is no extra charge to help you reset your internal clock during your much-needed stay at Coco Plum Island Resort.
