Tips For Taking A Road Trip Alone

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

It can sometimes be tough to keep yourself awake when you are driving on a long road trip, as the road tends to put your mind into a lulled state, but when you are taking a long road trip by yourself, it can become even more difficult to stay awake; if you are going to be taking a long road trip of your own, make sure you follow these tips to know how to stay awake and effective!

Music: Music is one of the best ways to keep yourself awake, but you should not just put a CD in and let it play; it becomes a lot easier to stay awake when you put a pretty good variety into the music you are listening to.

Temperature: Variation in temperature usually helps to keep drivers awake, and it is easy to achieve this by changing the settings in your car every so often, and by sometimes keeping the windows rolled up and sometimes keeping them rolled down.

Space out required stops: You should try to keep your "required stops" as far apart from one another as you can, which means you should take a bathroom break and pick up any food and drinks you will need every time you stop for gas, so that you will not be stuck making additional stops just for these things.

Sprinkle in non-required stops: One big mistake people make when taking a long road trip is trying to "push through," which often leaves them so tired that they either have to stop for a long nap or - worse - they put their life and the lives of other drivers in danger! At least once between every required stop, you should stop at a rest stop (or a serene, relaxing place) to walk around for at least five minutes, which will allow you to get the blood flowing through your body as you stretch a bit.

Phone calls: You should get yourself a hands-free device, even if you are not much of a phone-talker; when you start getting tired on the road, one of the best things to resort to is a conversation with someone from home!

When you apply these tips to your own drive, you should be able to make it to your destination in one piece - without any real struggles or troubles at all!
