Yoga for vacation

Ahhh, traveling… Who doesn’t dream about strolling through the ancient streets of Rome, exploring Machu Picchu or flying off to an unforgettable trip to India. Even a weekend get-away is always anxiously awaited.

When I travel, often times I find myself feeling rather unsettled. It is not exactly something I can put my finger on – just that faint sensation of  “something is not right”. Feeling antsy is the best way I can describe it! Yoga and meditation are definitely a great help.

Lately, though, I’ve been experimenting with different ways to get myself settled.

I found that walking is a great tool for me.

Meditation is a great way to spend time when you’re waiting for a plane or during a long ( or even a short) flight.

Eating well makes a huge difference in how I feel.

Taking some time to be by myself seems to clear my head, too.

Once you start noticing what makes you feel out of balance, you will be able to find tools and activities that help you stay grounded – on vacation or not.

Here is a great yoga sequence to help you calm frazzled nerves and impart peace of mind.
