GET INTO THE GROOVE
You rocked out in the sixties when rock and roll meant something. You indulged and paraded in the seventies and ultimately paid for it in the eighties. A century later and you are still around, relatively speaking. Don’t forget who you are and let the music that once kept you out late at night keep you out again. Take a dance cruise; it’s a great chance to put some good use to the cardio exercise you’ve been getting from regular walks. You’re fueled now with your portable music player and used to getting in refreshing walks along with the music you love. Rhythm subtly guides every day. The flow of traffic is as vibrant a piece of music as any.
Being social is a big part of remaining healthy and vital. It can be easy to loose motivation and a cruise is an opportunity to meet some amazing new characters. The cruise ship is home to a floating city. None of the comforts of home are left far behind. Miles can be walked with sights not seen. Take an Alaskan cruise to see whales. The vistas seen from the vantage point of the ship are unparalleled.
FEEL THE RHYTHM
It’s as natural as anything else we do in life. Autonomous functions are understood to be beyond our control, so too is our reaction to the lure of bass sounds. In music it is thought to be among the first instruments, in tune with ourselves. Our hearts have a rhythm; we should listen to it more and not ignore our responsibility to take care of it. Dancing is a great way to exercise not only naturally but as our own pace. There is no need to feel rushed.
BEING PREPARED
Early morning walks on the deck can be meditative. Getting in some exercise early in the day will help to maintain a healthy appetite and give you the chance to burn calories that you needn’t feel to guilty indulging in. Wear the right shoes for your activities on board, and enjoy the variety of food without over doing it - it will be hard to go dancing late at night feeling bloated. Active living happens when we are excited to have new experiences. Life is unpredictable, a chaotic beauty that shouldn’t be missed.
