Been lawyering for five years now, with only one-two week vacation that I took over two years ago. I’m married, husband is also in legal. Work has been pretty much all I do (no hobbies). Need to get away from all of it for a week or two to reset because of extreme burnout. Anyone travel alone for a week or more and any suggestions on where to go to decompress solo? Not looking for trips that involve a lot of socializing or sightseeing. Just peace.

Canyon Ranch. I prefer Tucson but Lenox is nice as well. You can treat your whole self, mind, body, and spirit. I always feel evolved and re-energized after.

Oh wow! Where are you flying from? I can usually find good flights from NYC but not gonna lie, the distance from the airport to the resort eats into a long weekend. You can fly into Puerto Rico or Martinique and then take a small plane to the closer/smaller airport but I haven’t tried it. You can also take a helicopter from the large airport to the resort for like $500 but your luggage goes by road. Haven’t tried that either!

Have had friends go to all-inclusives alone and really enjoyed it - just naps on the beach and time to read/watch movies uninterrupted

I also second an all inclusive. I just came back from Punta Cana and after laying on the beach for a week with a novel, I feel wayyy better. Pick one with a clean beach and good food.

I went to a dude ranch in the middle of nowhere a few years ago and it was recharging. No internet or cell service, all meals catered, and hanging out with animals.
