Top Tips To Ease Jetlag

By Jessica Sepel

As I prepared for a long flight home from Los Angeles earlier this week, I knew I was going to be jumping right back in to a busy schedule upon my return. To help combat the inevitable jetlag from traveling from one side of the world to another, I prepared my body and mind. So far, these tips have been doing the trick! I feel calm and awake, and the transition has been quite smooth. Give these a try during your next big journey!

Drink plenty of water throughout the flight – I add 2g vitamin C powder + magnesium powder.
Avoid alcohol pre-flight and on the flight.
Avoid salty foods before, during and after the flight.
Pack healthy snacks to prevent yourself falling for unhealthy options – think raw nuts, bliss balls, seaweed and veggie sticks.
Prep a green wholefood powder when you arrive home. I’ve been using Nature’s Way green powder.
Take a walk in the fresh air as soon as you can upon returning home.
Start up your yoga practice again as soon as possible.
Use lavender oil on your temples to calm the nervous system.
Sip chamomile tea at night.
Take homeopathic melatonin two hours before bed to help adjust your internal clock.
