Healthiest habits on vacations

Is it possible to have healthy habits during vacations?

In everyday life, we lead to a healthy way of life, or at least we try. Healthy meals, enough sleep, and exercise regularly are some part of our daily routine.

When we go on vacation, the first thing we want to do is to disconnect us from the routine and reconnect with our family and ourselves.

The emotion of being at vacations make us feel like we can break our healthy routine to enjoy more our holidays; But staying healthy does not mean you stop enjoying your vacation to the fullest.

We want you to keep your healthy habits, with just a twist, you can stay fit and enjoy your vacations without testing your will.

Watch what you eat.

During vacations, we have the right and obligation to indulge our selves, but we must do it responsibly. Although we would love the idea of eating a plate replete of French fries accompanied with a piña colada or even better, beer! We must keep in mind the number of calories and of sugars we ingest. Don´t be too obsessed with it, just try not to exceed the quantities you consume on a daily basis.

Fruits are your best allies.

Always have fruit with you, you can either eat it as a dessert or as a snack for when you are hungry or thirsty. The fruits are one of the best ways to not neglect your diet and get energy for your day of activities. Look for a seasonal fruit from your destination, although you already know the fruit, it will be tastier.

Stroll the destination.

A long walk at your destination will help you keep your shape, and you will know much better the tourist destination, You will find exciting spots that you could easily miss driving a rental car. So wear your sneakers and start walking.

Turn off your cell phone.

The office pursues us still on vacations. The ideal scenario would be to disconnect our selves from everything, but we all know that it is not possible. Avoid surfing your mobile devices every 5 minutes searching for information or uploading pictures of the happenings.

Vacations are waiting for you outside, not inside your cell phone. Limit the number of times you check your devices to see social networks updates or response work e-mails, I know they are essential, but I also know that you are on vacation. Enjoy it!

Play

Wherever you go on vacation, there will always be where and with whom to play. As a rule, the hotels have a specialized entertainment team that organizes events during the day. These activities will help you stay active. If your destination is the beach, Play 2 hours under the sun, and you will get a uniform tan. We know that holidays are for rest but why stay lying on a beach lounger if you can spend the day having fun?

Take advantage of the facilities.

If the hotel you are traveling has a gym, or there is a public gym near the hotel, take advantage of it! Spending 20 minutes in the morning will be more than enough to continue with your healthy routine. Your mood, your meals, and vacation activities will do the rest.

Water with lemon

If you don´t have this habit yet, maybe it's the right time to start. Take by the morning, a glass of warm water with lemon squeezed on it and a small quantity of baking soda, it will help you to cleanse and alkalize your body.

Water and more water
