We have many responsibilities and it can be easy to put our needs on the back burner. Before you know it you are eating poorly, not exercising, not sleeping and it starts to take a toll on not only your work but on the quality of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are interested in doing this job long term you need\nto set aside the time to care for yourself. If you just do a few trips here and\nthere, it is okay if you let yourself \u201cslide\u201d those few weeks out of the year.\nBut as we all know they quickly add up and start to affect us. I have watched\nso many tour guides burn out and have to leave a job that they loved because\nthey did not set up boundaries to care for themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Health is Not Rocket Science: <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"#eat-well\">Eat Well<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#be-active\">Be Active<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#sleep\">Sleep Sufficiently <\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#stop\">Take Time to Stop and Smell the Roses <\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We get caught up in every new health fad instead of simply doing what we know we need to be healthy.

On the road, we are surrounded by people on vacation. They are eating like they are on vacation. We are encouraging them to eat all the famous desserts and cheeses of each area we pass through. We have huge included dinners with included desserts. We are riding all day and passing snacks around the coach. We often have to do fast food for meals due to scheduling or lack of other options. We often have to be working during a meal break so we need to grab something quick that we can scarf down. We are working so hard that we \u201cdeserve\u201d to have that extra piece of a pie that one of our passengers gave us\u2026.and the list goes on! All of this catches up with us quickly, first in sluggishness and then you need to get the next size up in clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are a few tips that I have found to be helpful for eating correctly on the road:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Bring your own snacks<\/strong>. Often we wait until we are really hungry to grab something and our only options are a donut or fried pork rinds (which are delicious by the way, but not great for you). When you bring your own snacks you control what is going into your body between meals or when something happens and you have to skip a meal. You know what you need to consume, but for me I generally bring<ul><li><strong>For the Coach: <\/strong>(I have a container or Ziploc filled with goodies)<ul><li>Water- I always make sure to have plenty of water. You get several reusable bottles that you fill up at the hotel each night or have a case of bottled water. Not only do you save on buying water, but staying hydrated is key to being healthy. If you are not a fan of plain water you can get those little flavor packets to add-in.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Granola\/Protein Bars (read labels as some of them are just candy bars in different wrappers)<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Peanut Butter in individual packets.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Fruit (if I am not crossing international borders). Mainly apples as they last a long time (it only takes one banana being left in an overhead bin for you to not do that again)<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Jerky<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Huel (*<a href=\"#huel\">see m<\/a>y note at the very bottom as to what this is)<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><ul><li><strong>For the Hotel:<\/strong> (Ziploc in my suitcase) Often times you get <g class=\"gr_ gr_68 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling multiReplace\" id=\"68\" data-gr-id=\"68\">in to<\/g> the hotel and maybe it has been a while since dinner and you want a snack.

Don\u2019t fill a plate at the buffet. If it is a plated meal, don\u2019t be afraid to leave food on your plate. I know that is blasphemy for those of you that like me, were raised to clean your plates. But the reality is you are not wasting that food if you shouldn\u2019t be eating it. Let me <g class=\"gr_ gr_73 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation only-del replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"73\" data-gr-id=\"73\">explain,<\/g> if you eat more than you should then you gain weight and you have to work hard to lose that weight or you have to deal with the repercussions of being heavier (clothes not fitting, loss of energy, etc.). So basically by not eating everything on your <g class=\"gr_ gr_72 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation only-ins replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"72\" data-gr-id=\"72\">plate<\/g> you are actually doing yourself more of a favor than if you ate it. To be clear I hate how we waste food in this country and there are so many people who need that food, but you overeating is not helping them or you.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Don\u2019t eat the stuff you shouldn\u2019t eat. Stay away from a lot of sugar or soft drinks, you know the drill.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>You may be great at moderation, but I am not. So what I do is just not have the dessert because I can\u2019t just have one bite. If it is a group meal that is the time that I go and pay the bill. I stay away from all soft drinks and just have them for special occasions.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Give yourself a break. I generally will have one or two meals a week that I let myself indulge like I am on vacation. This way I can have something to look forward to and don\u2019t feel like I am missing something when we are at a place that is known for their desserts or fried foods.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>If you feel like you need to track calories just to get a better grip on your diet, there are great apps for that. I personally use My Fitness Pal App <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myfitnesspal.com\/\">https:\/\/www.myfitnesspal.com\/<\/a> \u00a0(available on all devices), it is very easy to enter your meals (you can type or just scan barcodes to add food). It gives you a breakdown of where you are lacking or overindulging (carbs, protein, fats) it even sets a per day calorie goal that is personal to you and your goals.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"be-active\"><strong>2.

If you are in town and going to have some free time the next day you can run around the area to get familiar with it. You get a good run in and you have great suggestions for your passengers for the next day. There are many apps that will track your run or give you runs in the area.

In the beginning I\ncannot tell you how many times I stayed up late into the night perfecting my\ncommentary only to not do a great job presenting because I was so exhausted, or\nto not be able to handle a situation well because I was not on top of my game.\nThe more you do this job the more you will discover that while commentary is\nvery important, it is much more important that you are present and active with\nyour passengers. That is not just for you, but for them. They would love to\nhave an expert as a tour guide, but if they had to choose they would rather\nhave one that is personable and attentive to what is going on. You can\u2019t do\nthat if you are consistently not getting enough sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each person is different in how much sleep they need. You\nhave to discover for yourself what that number is and work around it. I have to\nhave 8 hours of sleep otherwise after a few days I start feeling it. So I look\nat the time I have to get up to get everything done the next morning, I count\nback 8 hours and that is the time I have to be in bed. Then I prioritize what\nhas to get done and what will not get done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obviously there will be times I break this rule or someone\nbreaks a hip in the middle of the night. We need to have a general\nrule\/boundary that guards our needed sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">White Noise App- There are many of them out there. They are\nof great help when you have a noisy hotel room. Whether you are too close to\nthe road or city noises or your room is haunted, this little app is so helpful.\nYou can choose from a wide variety of ambient noises to lull you to sleep. Each\nperson is different but for my ears \u201cpink noise\u201d is the one that drowns out the\nmost noises and lets me sleep. You can also use the app is an alarm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of alarms, none of us wants to oversleep and the\nfear of that can sometimes keep us up. I always have the front desk set up a\nwake-up call and have my phone set with an alarm as a back-up. It gives you\npiece of mind to sleep better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"stop\"><strong>4.

The busier you are the more your brain\nneeds a moment to just be. Call it mindfulness\/meditation\/whatever, just give\nyourself a few minutes to breathe deeply and not allow your mind to work on\nanything but being in the moment. This is such a powerful tool that \u201cresets\u201d\nyour day. Those few moments can give you a different outlook on a situation and\nbring calm into the storms of your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can make it as formal or informal as you would like.\nThere are a lot of great apps out there that will lead you in some mindfulness exercises.\nOr you can simply decide that for 5 min every morning before you get into the\ncraziness of everything you are just going to sit on the corner of the bed and\nrelax and take deep breaths. This is also great to do throughout the day. Take\na moment when the pax have free time or are taking some photos to just \u201cbe in\nthe moment\u201d. Relish in the fact that you are standing in front of the Eifel\nTower. Yes there are things to be done, but you need to enjoy these moments\neven if it is for only a few minutes. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-heading\">Bottom Line:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You know what you need to do, you did before reading this\narticle. You need to set up some boundaries and habits so that you can be\nhealthy and enjoy this amazing job that we share. Don\u2019t get burned out because\nyou didn\u2019t take time to take care of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Eat Well, Be\nActive, Sleep Sufficiently, and Take Time to Stop and Smell the Roses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"huel\">* A note on Huel. (<a href=\"https:\/\/huel.mention-me.com\/m\/ol\/ru9ap-casey-walton \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Get $10 off (opens in a new tab)\">Get $10 off<\/a>)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Huel is a nutritionally complete, convenient, affordable\nfood with minimal impact on animals and the environment. It is not a protein\nworkout drink or a weight loss drink it is just the right amount of protein,\nessential fats, carbohydrates, vitamins &amp; minerals. Literally a balanced\nmeal in a bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just to be clear, I do not work for Huel so this promotion\nis based solely of the fact that I found something that is brilliant and I want\nothers to be able to enjoy it as well. At first I did not want to include Huel\nin this article because I didn\u2019t want it to look like a commercial, but I\nthought that was silly to leave it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I first tried Huel as an experiment, because I thought it\nwas a excellent idea and fit perfectly with our lifestyles. Think of the time\nyou could save if for every lunch (that was not included and you didn\u2019t have to\nbe working) you could just add water and shake. No standing in line or having\nto navigate what to eat. You then had that hour to yourself, if you needed to\nget work done or just have a break. Not to mention how much money you would\nsave on a meals over time. Huel is under $2 a meal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short it does work and it is awesome. The main thing that\npeople complain about is the taste or texture, but that seems a moot point\nbecause you have several flavors or flavor enhancers and you can change the\ntexture just by adding more water. I like the vanilla flavor, but I love the\nchocolate flavor. They have an unsweetened unflavored variety and it tastes\nlike it sounds- bland. You can mix flavors or add your own flavors, many people\nadd coffee or other things in the mix to their liking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I do not use a blender, just the shaker bottle that comes\nwith your first order. I just measure out a serving and put it in individual\nZiplocs so I just grab one, add water, shake, drink and then clean it out for\nthe next day at the hotel at night. Easy Peazy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the reviews for yourself and see if you think it is\nsomething that would help you as much as it has helped me. I do not go crazy\nwith it like some people and just drink all their meals. I just do one a day,\nnormally at lunch. This stuff lasts a long time so even if you are just\nreplacing a few meals a week it is worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The downside for me going into it was the fact that you have to buy so much to just try it. You have to buy two bags. If you hate it and don\u2019t want to keep it you can return the unopened bag but you have to keep the bag you opened (which makes sense). Many people actually cook with it and there are a lot of great recipes out there so if you don\u2019t want to drink it you can still use that bag for cooking nutritious meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My biggest piece of advice it is going to sound funny: You\nneed to drink it like water. What I mean is, don\u2019t drink it like you would a\nsmoothie where you are sloshing it around in your mouth or feeling the need to\nchew. Just drink it down. There is a big difference, when you drink it like\nwater you are not really tasting it that much it is just going down, you are\njust getting a hint of the flavor. But if you are drinking it like you would a\nStarbucks drink trying to savor the flavor it is not as good. Also if you do\nnot like the texture, adjust the amount of water you add and add some other flavoring\nin it if you want. I am confident that everyone can find a flavor or additive\nthat they will enjoy. But I have to laugh at the people who complain because it\ndoes not taste like a drink from Starbucks that is filled with fat and sugar\n(because it is not filled with fat and sugar).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A perfectly balanced meal, way cheaper than any meal we can\nbuy, more free time in my day- you can\u2019t beat that in my opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to try it <a href=\"https:\/\/huel.mention-me.com\/m\/ol\/ru9ap-casey-walton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"visit (opens in a new tab)\">visit<\/a> <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"https:\/\/huel.mention-me.com\/m\/ol\/ru9ap-casey-walton  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/huel.mention-me.com\/m\/ol\/ru9ap-casey-walton\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/huel.mention-me.com\/m\/ol\/ru9ap-casey-walton <\/a>.
