by Kristen Fisher

Self-care is the most exciting, loving treat you can give to yourself. Self-care is all about you and doing everything in your best interests. You need to give yourself the best treatment you can ever expect from anyone or you can ever imagine.

Thus, as you plan for your adventure holidays, ensure you do something that will make you extremely happy. As you plan for your next travel, here are 6 top ways you can maintain your self-care:

Be Present

All through your trip, you should practice mindfulness. Don’t do things absentmindedly; be intentional about all the things you are doing. Be engaged in conversations you have with people you meet on the trip, savour the foods and drinks that interests you. Try new continental and intercontinental food menus. Visit interesting places, meet new people and socialize with them. Learn new habits.

Be sure to have good, comfortable gear no matter where you are traveling. When flying overnight, bring comfortable noise-cancelling headphones, eye mask, comfortable clothing to sleep in and warm socks as the plane can get cold. Make sure you have the best carry-on luggage to easily bring on and off the plane. Bring a refillable water bottle with you to help protect the environment while staying hydrated.

Keep away from social media or anything that will distract you and simply enjoy the experience. You can share your pictures or memories about the holiday in your social media platforms days or weeks after the vacation.

If you are truly present, you will see that you will cherish every moment. Self-care means doing anything that will make you feel good. Go out there and explore the world.

Only do things that you want to do

Allow yourself the luxury of visiting places and events that interest you. If you have zero interest in arts, then there is no need spending time and money visiting an art museum. Go to places or get involved in things you can gladly spend your money on.

Go for a moving tour

There are so many tours out there such as running tours, cycling tours, walking tours etc. Simply go for a moving tour. Although there are quite a number of tour options springing around the world, but you are encouraged to go and make your own.

Many people truly love going around town with their phones, taking pictures of virtually anything and everything that interests them.

Treat yourself to a massage

However, this may be cost prohibitive for most tourists, if this is the case, you can massage yourself by lovingly rub your shoulders, neck, legs, toes, low back, etc. Do what makes you happy because you are the only person that knows what is best for your body.

Listen to your body and extend your stay

This is the best time to give yourself a beautiful treat you have always desired. This is not the time to think of something else, because you are free from the stress of workplace. Listen to your body and know when you may need more time to make yourself happy.
