Going on vacation is wonderful, but returning to routine can be tough, both physically and mentally. It's normal for your body to feel confused upon returning and for there to be some difficulty adjusting after so much time away. dolce far niente.

If you've traveled by plane for many hours, completely changed your wake-up, sleep, and eating schedules, overindulged in food, and exercised less than usual… it's more than expected that the return trip will bring some challenges.

It's very important for the body to realize it's time to wake up, and one of the best ways to do this is to receive direct sunlight, as this puts us in tune with our natural circadian rhythms. Take the opportunity to move around (you can simply stretch your whole body or do some stretches) and, if you have time – even just 5 minutes – do a quick meditation. If you like, write down some thoughts or intentions for the day in a notebook. All of this may seem cheesy or an idyllic routine you only see in magazines, but it's really a matter of creating a few minutes for these things and noticing how they make us calmer for the start of a new day.

Bedtime ritual

7. No screens before bedtime!

It's normal to come back from vacation more ecstatic and less focused, and screens and social media are a kind of escape from what we don't want to do (like organizing things or admitting we have to go back to work). But, especially before bed, it's important that you avoid screen time – at least in the two hours before going to bed. Choose to read a book or do some kind of craft. Anything you enjoy that doesn't involve screens, since blue light greatly affects our sleep rhythms and makes it even harder to get back into a routine. If you feel that falling asleep isn't easy when returning to your routine, try... Sleeping Drops with calming medicinal plants that help you fall into a peaceful and truly restorative sleep. And try lighting Palo Santo in your home and bedroom, as its aroma and calming energy can help you sleep better.
