Results for Relaxation
Needing some much needed quiet time or relaxation? Or do you need to forget your worries and connect to your adventurous side? You may NEED to travel just to get away. Just to feel free from this everyday craze called life. Here are some travel suggestions I like to dive into when I really want to connect on a holistic level.
This guide focuses on one of the most important things we as humans truly need in life, RELAXTION- Whether you have a tough job that is physically demanding or mentally stressful at times OR maybe you've been dealing with other social or environmental discomforts that have overwhelmed you. There could be a million reasons you are in a place of stress or exhaustion. However, you DO have the option to take a break and get away! Yes! Because you absolutely deserve some peace and relaxation!
So where do you go?
*SUGGESTION TRIP: A body of water! The ocean is a great place to start however studies show that just being near any flowing water can reduce cortisol levels within 30 seconds of arrival. So this doesn't have to be a fancy trip to Hawaii this can be any river, lake, ocean that is near you. Here are some great U.S. trip ideas.
My beach trip suggestion- CANNON BEACH, OREGON.
Not only are the towns surrounding quaint and adorable, the beach Itself has beautiful giant rock structures and plenty of walking beach space to unwind. Slow down and take some deep breaths while sitting in the sand listening to the waves. Im telling it won't disappoint!
-Check out my Cannon beach hotel recommendations below!
My lake suggestion- LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA. Yes this can be quite a busy and touristy area, however the hiking around the lake is very peaceful and quiet and there are always places to get away from the crowds for some quiet time. The water can be very clear and blue with beautiful surrounding trees and forrest environment. This is a great place to walk off some stress and then spend some time by the clear waters to reflect.
-South Lake Tahoe hotel recommendations below!
My river suggestion- BIG THOMPSON RIVER, COLORADO. Running through beautiful Estes Park, the drive itself is absolutely breath taking. There are a ton of places just to pull off the road and be right on the river or to hike around. You may like to fish, hike or just sit and listen to the sound of the beautiful flowing river. The mountains surrounding will give you a great sense of peace and the serene river will have you relaxed within minutes.
-Hotel recommendations near Big Thompson river below!
Wherever you find yourself in nature, make sure to let go of your stressful thoughts from your everyday world and stop to be present within the beauty around you. Take some deep breaths and let your soul lead the way. Know that as stressful as life can be there is always natural beauty all around you and you always deserve a break...

If Sri Lanka isn't already on your bucket list - please add it immediately. Stunning beaches, rich wildlife, and thrilling adventure, there is just so much to explore.
The country boasts an extensive coastline with picturesque beaches such as Hiriketiya, Mirissa, and Arugam Bay, perfect for relaxation, surfing and snorkeling.

It's also famous for its large population of Asian elephants, which yes, you can sometimes casually see in places like Arugam Bay and driving through Yala National Park (more on that later!)
