HOLIDAY OR HAVOC?
Are your holidays truly healing you—or secretly exhausting
you?
In a world obsessed with “taking a break,” many of us return
from holidays feeling more tired, disconnected, and guilty than
before.
In Holiday or Havoc? Choose the Break That Heals, Dr.
Abhishek Gilara—entrepreneur, author of 100+ books, and spiritual
lifestyle thinker—invites you on a journey to rethink the very
purpose of a break.
Drawing from decades of personal travel experiments, spiritual practice, and deep self-reflection,
this book reveals:
• The illusion of modern rest and why it leaves us empty
• The 9 types of holidays—and which truly restore energy
• The cost of post-holiday guilt and how to avoid it
• How to design a break that aligns with your mindset and stage of life
• A powerful 10-step framework to plan your next holiday with clarity and purpose
Whether you seek peace, reconnection, or inspiration, this book is your travel companion—not for
the world outside, but for the one within.
Take a break that builds you.
Not one that breaks you.
