Shelly's Shares: Finding Balance: The Art of Enjoying Travel Without Sacrificing Wellness
Manage episode 495776941 series 3539680
Ever experienced that exhausted, disoriented feeling after returning from vacation? That "vacation hangover" is exactly what Shelly is unpacking in this personal, practical episode of Words of Wellness. Fresh from a meaningful trip to Wisconsin watching her son play baseball, she shares the real strategies that help her maintain wellness while fully enjoying travel experiences.
The balance between vacation enjoyment and wellness maintenance doesn't have to be complicated. Her approach includes simple daily movement (walking is perfect!), bringing along key nutritional products to support immune health during travel, and managing sleep schedules to minimize disruption. These small habits create the foundation that allows moments to enjoy that rooftop sangria or post-game ice cream without guilt or feeling completely derailed.
What makes vacation special is presence and joy, not perfection in our routines. There were days on her trip where vegetables were nowhere to be found on her plate - and that's perfectly fine! The goal isn't maintaining an impeccable wellness regimen while traveling, but rather creating enough consistency to keep energy high and recovery time minimal when returning home.
Beyond these travel wellness tips, Shelly is excited to announce her upcoming Moms Who Flourish Wellness event in Southern California and her new one-on-one mentorship program specifically designed for moms navigating wellness challenges, nutrition confusion, or the identity shifts of empty nesting. Connect with her on Instagram @wellnesswithshellyj to learn more about these opportunities to transform your approach to wellness. What small changes might make your next vacation more enjoyable and your return home smoother? The answers might be simpler than you think.
