Mental health is something that is often neglected, so making time for yourself is essential in today’s busy society. With the new year fast approaching, it may be time to resolve to take better care of yourself and focus on your wellness.
Travelling in luxurious surroundings is great for your mental health and well-being. Being surrounded by everything you could need whilst experiencing new places and the tranquillity of the sea can help the stresses melt away.
Research shows that just over one-fifth of travellers are doing so for health or wellness reasons. Traditionally, wellness and travelling were confined to spa breaks and meditation retreats, but there has been an evolution in this sector.
One of the features of travelling that appeal to many is privacy, calm, and exclusivity. Yachting can give you all of these and more should you choose it. Being on a quiet, calm boat surrounded by nature has a calming effect on even the busiest mind, allowing you to relax and focus on yourself.
Yachts exude luxury and exclusivity which works perfectly if you are looking to unwind. Many yachts come with features perfect for indulging in self-care such as spas, yoga decks, and nutritious food for every meal.
Self-care comes in many guises, so when booking a yacht you should think about what is important to you. For example, if you enjoy spending time outside then ensure you have ample space to gaze across the ocean.
One added extra is to consider is your yacht management team as, your crew will help to create the illusion that your every need is catered for magically which takes the stress off of you and your family. This will only add to the already incredible experience and make it a dream come true.
One of the great things about yachting is the amount of freedom it comes with. Unlike traditional holidaying, you can change your destination or extend your stay far more easily than if you were flying or going by train.
If you are looking for the perfect wellness destination, head towards the Bahamas. Made up of over 700 islands, there are plenty of quiet coves for you to moor up and soak up the sun.
On the quiet island of Eleuthera is The Cove. This spa is dedicated to the holistic working of the body and offers a range of wellness activities. Sunset yoga is popular as it combines beautiful views with a gentle workout. This is perfect for shaking off the stresses of modern life.
Alternatively, you could enjoy the serene views whilst eating an exquisite sushi dinner. Sourced from the island itself, the menu is fresh and clean, helping to further rebalance your body and mind.
