Travel tips: Getting on a plane this Christmas? ✈️
If you’re getting on a plane this holiday season, your nervous system, hormones, and immune system are all coming along for the ride – whether they like it or not.
The good news?
A few simple tweaks can mean the difference between landing feeling puffy, wired, and exhausted… and arriving calm, clear, and (mostly) human.
Here are 3 of my favorite flight tips:
1. **Cut. The. Noise.**
Airplane noise silently cranks up your stress hormones and drains your energy. Pop in earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones and give your nervous system a break from the constant roar.
2. **Move every hour.**
Once an hour, head to the back and do a quick “movement snack”: calf raises with shoulder shrugs, squats, torso twists, arm circles, gentle neck rolls. Just 1 min can make ALL the difference! Keeps blood and lymph moving, supports detox and immune function, and helps reduce clot risk – especially important in midlife.
3. **Fast (if it’s safe for you) – or bring real food.**
Travel days are a great time to let your body run on stored fuel (body fat!) and ketones instead of living on airline snacks and enduring blood sugar spikes and crashes. Ick.If fasting isn’t appropriate for you, bring your own low carb, protein-rich, real-food snacks and sip water with electrolytes instead of relying on ultra-processed airport food.
