We are going on a family vacation soon, and due to the pandemic, I am a little out of practice with traveling with a little one. It’s pretty common for travelers to leave our bodies a bit out of sorts, even on vacations or travels that are supposed to be fun. Every bit of energy and tip to making an experience more enjoyable counts. This week, episode 44 of Poised & Powerful Podcast is sharing tips to make traveling as a family more enjoyable and less stressful! 

Do you find yourself needing extra time to recover from your weekend or time to prepare your mind and body for the week ahead? Join me for a restorative practice where we’ll release tension in our necks, back, and shoulders. Clear your mind so you’ll feel reset and re-energized for yourself and your family.

In this episode of Poised & Powerful Podcast, I discuss the following:

  • When we get stressed, we may experience tunnel vision, and so I touch upon how to identify that you’re in that tunnel vision, and what to do with that energy so it actually serves you.
  • How to properly lift a heavy suitcase or a child in various scenarios in your travels.
  • What I recommend bringing on the plane with you, and what popular items I don’t recommend for your posture and comfort while on the plane.
  • Tips for long car trips and buckling kids in car seats. 
  • What you should do when you get to your destination to undo and un-scrunch all the tension and back issues caused from your travels.

This episode is the perfect episode to save to refer back to both before you travel and after your travels, so you can keep your body and mind in alignment and reduce tension.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
