Soul Satisfying Journeys: Travel Tips for Any Journey

 

1. Balance is the cornerstone of any journey. Find things you enjoy

doing. Do a variety of things, but in moderation.

 

2. Allow things in your life, which make your heart sing, feed your

soul or nourish you on a daily basis.

 

3. Get organized. Plan ahead and make provisions for your trip. Keep

your travel plans, including accommodation details, to yourself.

 

4. Allow yourself to work with the " flow of nature " and change as

your situation changes.

 

5. Be flexible as the old willow survives in a hurricane, where the

brittle, stubborn oak does not.

 

6. The number one rule is don't drink the water, and that includes

ice. Only use water from containers with a serrated seal - not tops

or corks. The simplest way of purifying water is to boil it

thoroughly.

 

7. Thoughts on food. If you can cook it, boil it or peel it you can

eat it...otherwise forget it. Make sure you have a well-balanced

diet.

 

8. Keep your hands clean. Washing your hands after being outside,

after shaking hands, after every trip to the restroom and before

eating. It is the number one way to avoid germs, bacteria and the

common cold.

 

9. Keep safe. Be aware of your surroundings. Don't take risks or

venture into areas you are not familiar with. Travel with someone or

be around others.

 

10. First aid checklist includes: thermometer bandages, gauze,

cotton, adhesive tape, Ace bandage, tweezers and needle (for

splinters). Insect repellent such as meat tenderizer (mix with water

to make a paste for bug bites), Aloe vera gel (for sunburns and skin

irritations) Hydrogen peroxide, and 70% rubbing alcohol Bring eye

drops, lip balm, remedy for upset stomachs, diarrhea, Dramamine,

children and adult's decongestant and antihistamine, Acetaminophen

(children's and adult's pain reliever), Calamine lotion (to soothe

sunburns, bug bites, poison ivy). Take along a triple antibiotic

cream, sun block, syrup of Ipecac (to induce vomiting in case of

poisoning). Also include any prescription medications, prescriptions

and telephone numbers for your doctors.
