Tips to keeping it all together while travelling - steps to cultivate greater health in your life
1.
Dress comfortable and stylish.
Key to comfort while travelling is where quality basic soft textures that are
comfortable. It doesn’t mean you can’t add some classical pieces with a twist
or edge to style up your look. Try adding a stylish timeless scarf or wrap, you
will need it on the plane when the air condition is on! Or carry a stylish hat
or the latest new coat or oversized off the shoulder jumper for a relaxed and
stylish look.
2.
Hydrate all the way. While on
the plane strive to drink as much water as possible at least 1-2 liters
depending on how long your flight is. When you dis embark, the first stop is
the toilet then to refill your drink bottle so you can continue to re hydrate
your body. This will also help your mind
and brain be sharp for that business meeting you are rushing off to make.
3.
Meditate: Take time out on the
plane to meditate. Download a guided meditation before you leave, or try
relaxation music with soft relaxing tones of water and rain. You could begin
your meditation by visualizing you are lying in your favorite destination, a
beach or beside a running river. Feel you whole body relaxing and drifting into
a deep state for meditation relaxation, almost as though you are about to fall
asleep.
4.
Exercise: Pack your walking
shoes. Try a walk after your flight to help with blood circulation, especially
after a long flight.
5.
Nutrition: Walk to the
supermarket once you arrive, so you can get your healthy snacks for your hotel
room so you don’t get caught out without healthy options. This could be a small
list of green apples, bananas, a small cucumber, celery sticks, coconut water
for extra hydration, gluten free crackers, almonds or any vegan snack bars
which are becoming more and more available in the health food section. Look out
for Raw Bars.
6.
Classes: Check out your local
gym or yoga classes. Schedule in time for you. Remember we all have twenty-four
hours in a day. You deserve to take 30 -60 mins of that to exercise.
7.
Creative time: Pack your
journal and your favorite book. Essential for your flight. Become aware for
reading too many gossip magazines on the plane. Choose your reading and time
wisely while flying. This time can be used as relaxation or time out to dream
about your goals and aspirations in personal or career life.
8.
Network: While flying remain open, networking is a
wonderful way to meet like-minded women, whether that is in business or
personal. It can be a great opportunity to talk to someone next to you in the
que, sitting beside or waiting in line for the toilet on a long flight. You
never know who you may meet while travelling, or maybe you can offer some
kindness to someone next to you. Research shows us when we help others it can
help increase your own state of happiness and gratitude.
9.
Sleep: Getting the right amount of sleep is
everything. It can address your mood, energy, sugar cravings and clarity. Do
you know how much quality of sleep you need to feel balanced and energized? Or
do you wake up feeling groggy, a but achy while travelling? When we sleep well
we become more resilient to stress and have a stronger immune system.
10. Vitamins: Pack your essential vitamins. Taking the right
balance of nutrients, minerals and vitamins can be life changing for many
women. Magnesium powder is highly beneficial while flying and travelling.
