In this episode of the Self (R)evolution Podcast, host Breanna Rae Blaney dives into something so many of us struggle with: staying healthy while traveling. Whether you're hopping on a plane for work or heading off on a summer getaway, travel can throw your body out of balance leading to burnout, sickness, and fatigue. Breanna shares Ayurvedic wisdom and modern strategies to support your nervous system, boost immunity, and keep your energy high no matter where you’re headed. From simple travel routines and grounding practices to hydration tips, food choices, and sneaky airplane rituals (yes, nose oil!), you’ll walk away with a full-body toolkit to stay well on the go. Topics we cover:

• Why travel disrupts your system (Ayurveda explains it all)
• How to balance Vata while flying or changing time zones
• What to drink before and during travel
• How oil, massage, and movement help your body bounce back
• The one thing Breanna never travels without
• How to maintain your meditation and food routines even when you're away

Your health doesn’t have to take a backseat while you explore. Tune in, take notes, and travel well.
