Your team is traveling for a reason and if they can’t perform at the peak of their ability it can hurt your profitability. John’s program (presentations, workshops and consulting) will show your team how to be more energized, healthy and balanced when they travel…and back at home.
Travelers should expect to gain an understanding of how they can prepare for a variety of travel situations and be proactive in their approach to reducing stress and maintaining their health on the road. John’s presentations are edutaining with immediately useful action items. I’ve laid out the book in a very easy to read fashion, with highlight boxes, chapter summaries, and a sample packing list. I provide my recommendations in a chronological fashion from preparing and packing for the trip, to how to thrive on the plane and in a hotel room, to some contingencies around eating, exercising and dealing with illness. I conclude with a chapter on how you might use this natural health information as a way to potentially begin a new lifestyle upon your return home.
As a naturopath and frequent business traveler, I’ve had many friends ask me what I do to stay healthy when traveling. They sometimes ask very specific questions like: * What do I do if I start feeling sick? * How do I handle jet lag? * What happens if I feel really anxious? * What if something I ate is not digesting well? So, with that in mind, I wrote Travel Balance in a conversational style as if answering a friend who had just asked me these questions. I write about my best tips and advice, along with some fun stories to make it interesting and entertaining.
What makes this book unique is that it is written from the perspective of a knowledgeable natural health doctor (naturopath), who has also traveled for business with IBM more than three million miles, to over 26 countries, over thirty years. This intersection of my two “worlds” provides a very unique perspective, as it’s not just based on what I think might happen, but rather personal experiences during my many domestic and international trips. This book is not just about what to eat and how to exercise, but rather more about the entire trip, from beginning to end. You can use the parts you like, and discard what doesn’t resonate with you, but either way, you’re more than likely to gain at least a few tips that you may not have tried before.
Yes! While this book specifically targets travelers, there are many tips and techniques that will apply at home as well. Some examples include: * Ways to improve your sleep * Tips to help with digestion * What to do if you feel like you’re getting sick * Drinking water for good health * Time changes (daylight savings time) using jet lag techniques * Ways to deal with anxiety
New Year, New Focus on You!
As we begin the new year, it might be a good time to consider new ideas about how you can make some changes around your personal self-care. The key thing is that you can’t be effective if you are stressed and overwhelmed, so let’s
start there.
Make exercise a part of your daily routine. Regular activity, both physical and mental, helps the body get tired and sleep. If possible, get moving earlier in the day. Freeman cautions that exercising late in the day may actually stimulate you.
With Summer finally here, for many of us it means taking a vacation. If you’re like most Americans, you have traveled at some time in your life.

While we can’t do anything about a delayed flight or other things beyond our control here are some tips it’s important to stay balanced while traveling.

💫 We’re all guilty of it. Business travel pops up, and we let our health routines be “excused” because we’re on the road. We feel guiltless skipping workouts at the hotel. We tell ourselves that gourmet meals, glasses of wine, and late nights are just part of the job.
