Dubai averaging 9.6. Sunlight is seen as great way to combat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) as it increases the serotonin and melatonin levels in the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uaetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image_processing20220126-2701176-1vi675x-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25726\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The top 10 cities for sunshine hours are split fairly evenly across the Southern and Northern hemispheres<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Happiness helps<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People in Abu Dhabi and Dubai were also seen to be happier than the majority of other cities taking part in the study with both cities once again ranking highly. Abu Dhabi was found to be the 10th happiest place to live whilst Dubai was 13th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uaetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image_processing20220126-2701176-1tsns8p-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25727\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The top 10 cities for happiness had a largely European representation but Abu Dhabi represents the UAE in 10th<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst the life of an expatriate may be the dream for many, it is no secret that living overseas comes with its own challenges. Homesickness, lack of familiarity, developing self-sufficiency, and culture shock are all elements of relocating to another country that affect mental wellbeing.<br>Slowly, conversations around mental health are becoming more common. Propelled by the pandemic and a subsequent increase in the number of people seeking support, the stigma around mental health is being broken down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur latest study is an invaluable resource for ex-pats who are looking to move to a new city. Expatriate Group has always been dedicated to understanding the needs and concerns of people living overseas. It is no secret that moving to another country has its pitfalls, such as homesickness and culture shock. Add to this the stress caused by the pandemic; it became very apparent to us that some expatriates were struggling. Highlighting the very best cities for expat mental wellbeing (and breaking them down into categories) hopefully encourages ex-pats who want to improve their physical and mental wellbeing to perhaps venture to a new city. In light of these findings, Expatriate Group will be restructuring the group iPMI policy cover to enable businesses to put ex-pat employee wellbeing at the heart of their culture. It was amazing to see from our research that both Stockholm and Copenhagen offer employee flexibility, specified rules, and shorter working weeks to encourage a happy and healthy workforce for nationals and ex-pats alike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abu Dhabi and Dubai have fared extremely well in the recent study carried out by&nbsp;Expatriate Group&nbsp;with Abu Dhabi coming 3rd and Dubai 17th.
