Virtual Traveling During COVID-19

Pick your destination.  The sky is the limit; it’s time to travel beyond your dreams while staying home.  As we shelter in place, our network shares an array of videos, stories, pictures, and adventures for all to see.  Picturing yourself on that desired trip from your living room helps relieve stress, enhances optimism, and builds some resilience.  All attributes much needed during these uncertain times.

Monday morning, I decided to go to Brazil, Tuesday Australia, and planning South Africa on Friday.  I had a fantastic safari scheduled for June of 2020 with my family that I’m rescheduling for 2021.  While I’m sad, it gives me more time to learn and educate myself and my family on the destination, after all, looking forward to a future trip is part of the adventure.  Now with so much knowledge, it will enhance our experience.

Visualization is more than what we see; it is a form of meditation uplifting and motivating, traveling around the world from my living room as I work, parent, teach, and learn, keeps me going.  It unites me to destinations that once felt so far away and keeps me connected beyond the backyard.

New visual actions are going beyond pictures.   For the time being, social media posts no longer focus on selfies, a shift that has moved in a positive direction.  Snaps and posts of inspirational, gratitude-filled messages overload my feeds.   We change our focus from the external to the internal this is a virtual healing process.  Time with our family is a picture engraved in our memory uplifting today and tomorrow.  Just as nature is healing itself, we heal ourselves.

If there were ever a time to embrace technology, it is now.  Travel companies have become actors, and the sequestered world, the audience.  I am grateful for all the travel companies and hotels that have looked beyond their loss and created content hosted by dedicated staff members to engage guests.  Now we can delve deeper into the traditional yoga class, meditation, and cooking class, all inspired by our favorite hotels and destinations.

Virtual travel actions should continue beyond the virus. They help inspire undecided guests on their next vacation, and the content fills our soles its a win-win.

Visualize that vacation you always wanted to take, learn all there is, see all the amazing sites and make it a reality as we outlive COVID-19; you deserve it.  Be the light.
