According to the survey, 59% of respondents say they often think about things back home likechecking on pets, vehicles, or staying in touch with family. These thoughts impact how well they switch off, with 89% admitting their ability to relax is affected while on holiday.
To help make summer breaks more refreshing, Ring offers a suite of smart home security solutions designed to keep users connected and in control no matter where they are.

With Ring, we’re proud to offer our customers advanced capabilities that allow travellers to fully disconnect while staying perfectly connected.”

Ring and Relax guide:
As an added bonus for travelers this season, Ring has also introduced the Ring & Relax Guide, a light and engaging resource packed with useful tips to help people unwind more easily during their holidays. From breathing techniques and digital boundaries to mindset-boosting affirmations, the guide is designed to complement Ring’s smart security features and support peace of mind from departure to return.
- Create A Pre-Holiday Checklist: Write down outstanding tasks, worries, or reminders, such as work commitments, household chores, or home security concerns.
- Use ‘Anchor Tools’ To Stay Grounded: Bring your awareness back to the present with rituals and techniques, such as breathwork or journaling.
- Practice Affirmations To Calm Your Worries: Intentionally remind yourself that taking time off is not indulgent, it’s necessary. Use affirmations like: “This time is for me. I’ve earned it.”
- Control What You Can, Let Go Of The Rest: Focus your energy on getting ready for your trip, set up your home security, then make peace with what’s out of your control.
- Turn Stress Scenarios Into “Sorted” Moments: Instead of worrying about “what if” scenarios, create clear action plans. For example: “If my parcel is delivered when I’m away, I can speak to the driver with Ring’s Two-Way Talk feature”.
- Use A ‘Digital Boundary’ Technique: Avoid constantly checking your phone, set specific times for digital check-ins and feel secure that Ring Motion Alerts will notify you if movement is detected inside or outside your home.
- Practice Intentional Breathing Techniques: Use simple breathwork practices to regulate your body’s stress response. These techniques are helpful when worries about home creep in.
- Visualise Your Home As Safe: Prime your nervous system for relaxation by mentally picturing your home as secure and protected. You can support this by using Live View on any of your Ring cameras for instant reassurance.
- Affirm Your Autonomy: Remind yourself, “I’m in control of how I spend my energy.” Taking charge means saying yes or no based on what fuels you, not drains you.
- Create A ‘Return Ritual’: Instead of jumping straight back into your usual routine, take a day to gently transition, giving you space to readjust before fully re-engaging.
