Although I’ve enjoyed going on road trips this spring, I do need to balance that with time to relax and unwind. My coach says that a travel day puts enough stress on the body that it should be treated like a hard workout, with some rest needed the next day.

Sometimes it’s not immediately obvious when I’ve had too much going on. I didn’t have much energy on Saturday night after traveling to a rowing regatta, however, and it has been slower than usual to come back. A peaceful week with no rush to do anything—just living in today—has been good for me.

Nurturing Thursday was started by Becca Givens and seeks to encourage self-nurturing and to “give the planet a much needed shot of fun, support and positive energy.”

  1. People say the best part of the trip is returning home. I should plan a trip for this summer, but I’m thinking if it will be worth the trouble of the preparation and the travelling, we still have restrictions to come back to the country, so not sure if I’ll adventure to go far away or maybe only a weekend away close by. It’s always good to be “living in today”.
