How do you attain a well balanced, stress-free life and travel a little more? Well, today’s episode is presented by DreamBody, “For the Well-Being of your Whole-Being!”  Your favorite producer, Wayne “Richard Simmons” McMullen and his trusty sidekick, Hannah “Jane Fonda” DeClerk jump-start the episode with a testimonial from one of our members, Henry from the Netherlands. Sprechen sie Deutsch? No need, since this member shares, in English that puts even Wayne to shame, about his incredible experience on a DreamBody DreamTrip.   

Wayne and Hannah tease our audience with the “More than a travel tip… tip” (tip, tip tip, top, tippity tip tip) that is sure to make you feel in “top” health while traveling. As usual, you’ll have to stick around to the end of the episode for more details.  Hannah talks about how she stays healthy and Wayne talks about his “aha moment” thanks to Today’s Feature guest interview…. and how he has decided to start drinking more water.

----more----Today’s Feature Today’s guest is none other than nine-year DreamTrips Member and health expert Jessie Ruof.  As a Doctor of Naturopathy and expertise in both healthy living and travel making, she uses her combined expertise to share how you can add “health and wellness” to your “travel lifestyle.” Jessie explains the science behind Naturopathy, which focuses on stress management techniques by balancing the body through breathing and moving towards the ultimate goal of vitality. That is, finding a way to  live in a high optimal state that your body naturally does as a child.

Lifestyle change is the topic under discussion, as Jessie goes into some of the ways to start living better in your daily life.  Jessie encourages you to live to the fullest, and explains transitioning from once a year healthy traveler to making health part of your travel lifestyle doesn’t have to be complicated. There are some things everyone can do before travel that will prepare you for your trip.  These tips, if followed, will make you feel better all-around physically and mentally.

Chatting about DreamBody DreamTrips, Jessie recommends that these getaways are a great way to get you on the road towards wellness as a catalyst to a healthier lifestyle.  Jessie shares her philosophy “it’s never too late to start doing something good for yourself,” and in Today’s Feature, presented by DreamBody, Jessie gives you a great foundation to start.
