The research shows that if you โ€œget awayโ€ โ€“ whether around the corner to an event or around the world โ€“ the benefits are possible.Janet Stevens, Ph.D. is an educational researcher and wanted to gather information to show that travel is good for us. She believes that if you have a positive bias or attitude toward travel โ€“ acquired from reading RX: Travel which provides the proof or research โ€“ you will gain more from traveling that someone who does not believe travel is good for you.We can all make things happen when we know and believe it is important to us. Most people do not think that travel is an important part of our lives โ€“ so we put it on the back burner or work it in when we can. But travel is important. It is your prescription to improve you mental, physical and emotional health.When Janet was young, she used to say that when she grew up โ€“ she wanted to become a โ€œtouristโ€. Sounded like a good job. As long as her parents paid for her trips and excursions โ€“ she would go and learn. After that (on her own nickel), lots of things got in the way of traveling and that dream. Eventually she found ways to get away. The more she traveled, the more she believed it is not a luxury but essential to our brain, body and mental health.
