How to Use Travel for Healing Mentally, Emotionally and Physically

Have you recently gone through a traumatic event? Maybe you lost a loved one, a spouse, a divorce or had a health scare. Travel can provide the pathway to healing in body, mind and spirit.

First, travel physically separates us from our situation providing a different perspective and time alone to process and grieve. Solo travel forces us to look within and reflect.

Secondly, travel forces us to in the present moment. When you in a new place, new culture, new city, one must be present even simply to navigate. But more importantly to absorb and take in the surroundings.

Thirdly, travel can evoke gratitude. Having gratitude signals the brain to produce serotonin and dopamine (our happy hormones). Therefore, a shift in our mood occurs.

Fourth, travel can provide physical healing. Travel can relieve stress which is a known cause of many diseases. You can also attend a wellness retreat for the full on physical healing experience.
