What are bank holiday weekends?
A bank holiday is a national public holiday. Bank holiday weekends are weekends that are extended by a bank holiday. Thus a bank holiday weekend is a long weekend with at least three days off from work.
If a bank holiday is celebrated on a Thursday or Tuesday, in Germany it is very popular to take the extra day off (between the bank holiday and the weekend). Thus you only have to take one day off from work but can enjoy a longer break of four days.

Especially the days around Christmas, between Christmas and New Year, and around Easter and Whitsun are popular dates for long bank holiday weekends.
Planning a spa break on a bank holiday
Anyone planning a spa break in a wellness hotel should take a close look at bank holidays. If a public holiday is celebrated on Thursday or Tuesday, you can spend a long weekend at the wellness hotel with just taking one day off from work (provided you have the weekend off).
A Spa break is often a short holiday that is planned as a supplement to the main holiday. Long weekends are therefore the ideal opportunity for a spa break. Accordingly, the dates are often in demand. It is therefore worth booking wellness package deals on a bank holiday very early.

Crazy but true: You can stay energized and awake even without coffee! Stimulate the acupressure points that make you feel awake by massaging your pinky. On days where you feel particularly tired, simply massage each finger separately. This way you activate every reflex zone.
Not only exercising regularly contributes to a healthy lifestyle, moving a lot in your daily life does too. 6,000 steps daily has a lasting impact on your health and has a positive influence on it. That is quite a lot! Why not start with 3,000 steps daily and run your errands on foot?
