This week, we’re diving into the world of traveling with bronchiectasis. While packing tips are coming (trust me, I’ve got you covered!) let’s talk about an even more crucial aspect: strengthening and stretching your body. Imagine navigating cobblestone streets with a nebulizer backpack, suitcase, and chest vest. Sounds tiring, right? The last thing you want while traveling is to throw out your back. So, before your adventure begins, consider dedicating some time to building strength and improving flexibility. This isn’t just about your back, but about creating overall strength from head to toe. Why is this important? A strong body will help you: *Effortlessly lift luggage into overhead bins, taxi trunks, and hotel room suitcase stands. *Maneuver wheeled suitcases with ease. *Maintain good balance and prevent falls. Beyond packing tips, “packing on” some muscle and strength can make a real difference. My book, “The BE CLEAR METHOD to Living with Bronchiectasis,” features 10 straightforward exercises that, done consistently, can significantly improve any travel experience. Remember, exercise does more than help with travel; it’s crucial for overall health and well-being. So, while you’re planning your trip, consider incorporating some strengthening and stretching into your routine. Ready to learn more?
