As you may know, airport travel is by far one of the most relaxing experiences available. What, no? That’s not your experience? You’re not alone. In fact, in recent years, there have been studies on the effects of airplane travel on the body, detailing that the pressure, temperature, and oxygen levels in the cabin fluctuate throughout the flight, and the humidity level is much lower than at sea level. The combination of all of these factors can easily mess with your body’s normal functions, by dehydrating you, and draining your energy through less oxygen absorption. Sitting in tight quarters for hours and hours can also affect your blood flow. Not to mention that the process of traveling itself could involve switching time zones, coming into contact with hundreds of other people, and creating additional stress as you navigate your personal time table and itinerary, against the odds of the chaos around you. In today's episode, experience some simple movements to maintain circulation and comfort as you travel. Enjoy your flight!
