One of the keys to a better self is to realize that health goes beyond food and extends to relationships, your career, physicality, and spirituality. A person soaking in negativity with even one of these things is bound to be suffering which is where travel comes in.

We don’t mean business travel or stressing out over an itinerary but of the incidental benefits of traveling to a foreign area. In short, travel that is transformative for the traveler. It is with this pursuit in mind that we offer nine benefits of such travel.

Mindfulness.

Traveling is all about getting caught up in the now. Not knowing the surroundings means you can better focus on your environment and focus.

Relaxation.

A vacation is a great way to break free from the routine of your daily life, including all of the stress that builds up over days and weeks of earning a living.

Exercise.

Travel does not give you many opportunities to sit at an office desk all day. Traveling means you are more active without even realizing it. Walking, swimming, hiking, biking and even shopping all mean your body is engaging in more activity than it usually gets.

Healthier Eating.

Take a trip outside of the United States and you will discover how easy and cheap it can be to eat natural and organic meals and ingredients. You also get to better cherish the meal from the chatter that burbles up while dining with fellow travelers.

Exposure to New Foods.

Belize has several different cultures that are each known their own specific staple dishes and it also has a milkshake-like drink derived from seaweed that is a known energy drink, cure-all, and aphrodisiac.

Neural Stimulation.

Novelty is incredibly invigorating and beneficial to the human brain and travel gives you plenty of chances for your brain to soak up new cultures, smells, tastes, sights, creatures, and people.

Fight Depression.

Depression is a serious issue that can drag down your entire life. Escaping your usual element is a great way to reconsider your problems by helping you realize the world’s true scope, all of your options, and how granular your issues really are.

New Perspective.

Leaving your routine is like stepping out of camouflage; you can see and be seen in new ways. One great way to improve your awareness while traveling is to do some volunteer work in troubled nations. It is a thrilling moment when you see yourself as a local instead of a tourist.

Greater Appreciation.

Whether it comes from treasuring what you have or the new things you have been exposed to, rare is the traveler who comes home unappreciative of what he has.

When you see all of the benefits a trip can offer, it makes sense why a place like Belize is just perfect for fostering wellness. You do not even need to worry about a language barrier!
