Trade shows can be 15 hour days and when you string 3 or 4 of those together it can be a recipe for illness. Over the years I have found with 5 ways to stay healthy and ensure I have energy after the trade show is finished.
1. Drink a lot of Water
Water is important and you need to drink enough each day. Water helps to keep away headaches, flush the salt from the snacks that you eat on the go, and gives you an excuse to step out of the booth for a moment.
2. Snacks
Always have quick, portable snacks on me at trade shows. The snacks help replenish your energy and it keeps
3. Sleep
You need to find what helps you sleep; white noise machines, sleep masks, melatonin
4. Comfortable Shoes
You will be standing on concrete a lot. Carpet padding can help but you still need to ensure your shoes don’t cause you pain. Also, consider different shoes for different days. Wearing the same shoes for 3 days is a recipe for blisters.
5. Mindful Minute
Take a minute or two at least once a day to just sit and breath. Find a quiet corner, put your phone away, close your eyes, and breath. Use this to center and calm myself. These quick bursts of mindfulness help you to recharge.
Trade shows are long and stressful days, find a routine that works for you to keep you healthy.
