LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK, July 1,
2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Meredith
Corporation's MyLife, a personalized mindfulness and emotional
wellness app for kids and adults, and Travel + Leisure, the
world's most influential travel media brand, have teamed
up for a new mindfulness series aimed at helping
travelers get out and explore the world with ease. Launching in the
MyLife app on July 1st, the
seven-part program, "Travel + Leisure's Mindful Travel
Collection" is designed to help travelers slow down to take in
everything a destination has to offer, combat jetlag, calm the mind
to get them asleep on overnight flights or in new time zones, and
to be able to live in the moment while traveling.
The teams at MyLife and Travel + Leisure worked together to
curate a mix of meditations, stretches, journaling prompts, and
sleep exercises that can help people stay mindful and present on
every step of their journey. So whether they are sitting in an
airplane seat, lying awake in a hotel bed, walking down a busy city
street, or people-watching at an outdoor cafe, these Essentials are
there to help clear the mental space needed to make the most of
it.
The special curated section will offer seven different sections
that can be completed in any order or as needed and cover how to
acclimate to a new time zone and combatting jetlag, tips on taking
a mental vacation, yoga and accupressure to relieve travel stress,
travel anxiety, and deep breathing exercises to handle feeling
overwhelmed. Each of the activities range in length from a few
seconds to 10 minutes and are designed to be completed on the
go.
Travel + Leisure Digital Content Director Deanne Kaczerski said,
"Our audience never really stopped
traveling—however, many opted for road trips to our national parks
instead of international flights or staycations, visiting small
towns and attractions within their own state. But,
as more and more travelers get back out there in
earnest once again, we're here to help make their experiences
the best they can be. Our new offering created in collaboration
with MyLife will give all travelers the tools they need to enjoy
their upcoming trips to the fullest. After all, isn't that what
travel is all about?"
"We understand that the MyLife users are eager to travel the
world again, but not without understandable hesitations, concerns,
or anxieties. MyLife is thrilled to partner with Travel + Leisure
on this comprehensive collection of activities and actionable
resources to reference before or during their trips," said
Liz Doupnik, Director of Content
Strategy + Production. "Our goal at MyLife is to provide
mindfulness tools for moments of peace, healing, and empowerment no
matter what's in our users' way — from sprinting to a connecting
flight or juggling jet lag."
According to a 2020 study by the American Psychological
Association, over half of U.S. adults feel uneasy to readjust to
in-person interactions.
The MyLife app is available on iOS, Android and Amazon Alexa and
online at my.life.
