Travel also provides one of the greatest gifts to our minds: relief from chronic stress. Stepping away from daily responsibilities allows the nervous system to reset. Whether listening to ocean waves, wandering through a forest, or enjoying the rhythm of a new city, travel creates moments of peace that help lower stress and restore emotional balance.

And that was one of the lessons I received on that day from the great teachers.

Whether it be journaling or creating fictional stories, writing can be therapeutic. It has always given me comfort. Releasing thoughts (the unseen) to the seen (physical) to take out lower emotions to bring in or make space for higher emotions.
