jan 9/22 - How to practice "vacation meditation" and feel like you really went somewhere!

This week we were at a friend's home in the jungle of Costa Rica and it was so peaceful, so beautiful that I was wondering how I can hold on to the memory forever.

Vacation memories can be a powerful tool during stressful times! Revisiting a vacation memories can be a powerful tool during stressful times! Pulling up your vacation memories during meditation may offer protection for mental health.

It’s been a tough time for many not being able to travel like they used to. In my practice it was something we worked on with many people…vacation meditation

You can meditate anywhere, while laying in bed before really waking up, before going to sleep, even sitting at a desk, just close your eyes, take some deep breaths, put some ocean music or whatever makes you happy on your phone through you tube or Spotify and just listen, breath and remember your fond memories of your travels.

The ocean and waves can be a powerful memory for some. They are soothing, they remind of us a time when we were able to just lay on a beach without a worry in the world. Try visualizing yourself on a beach, warm sun on your body, the sound of waves soothing your mind and just BE…don’t think of anything but the sounds and feelings you had when you were fully relaxed. Take some deep breaths and just feel the power of your thoughts calming your mind.

Stress can creep up daily so remember to also practice some daily “happy” thoughts, whatever they may be, for me nothing is as calming as the ocean but find your happy place and go there often.

Remember “thoughts become things” keep your thoughts happy and positive and just let the Universe guide you to living your best life wherever you are
