HEL LO READERS

S

ummer is finally here, and with it comes that age-old feeling of
excitement as you start thinking about forthcoming travel plans.
There's nothing quite like a holiday to recharge the batteries
- getting away brings a welcome break from the usual day-to-day
routine and an opportunity to enrich and transform your perspective.
According to medical experts, travel promotes brain health and builds
brain resilience. Every time you're in a new environment, your powers of
observation and your focus intensify, helping to sharpen your mind.
Family holidays take on an even greater importance, given the stresses
that parents face in today's modern, chaotic world. These are precious
moments where parents and children can create lasting memories - whether
you're building sandcastles, jumping over ocean waves or enjoying dinner
by a vista. While group travel builds social ties, there are benefits to
travelling alone, too. Venturing solo empowers you to step out of your
comfort zone and get to know yourself better - see pg 47 for inspiration.
Personally, I'm looking forward to doing absolutely nothing when I'm
away next month. Downtime for me used to mean sight-seeing tours, long
walks or rigorous exercise classes. These days, my most
taxing activity is choosing between reading or napping.
I'd love to hear what your travel plans are this summer
- but whatever you decide, don't forget to crank up the
enjoyment factor. Happy holidays!
