Food<\/h2>\n<p>Hydrating and feeding her body with plenty of fluids and nourishing foods is key to Roberts\u2019 daily self-care practice. Taking that routine on the go can be challenging, she says, but it\u2019s made easier with reusable items like a large water bottle, food-storage containers, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.urbanoutfitters.com\/shop\/bdg-serena-canvas-tote-bag2?inventoryCountry=US&amp;color=040&amp;size=ONE%20SIZE&amp;type=REGULAR&amp;quantity=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.urbanoutfitters.com\/shop\/bdg-serena-canvas-tote-bag2?inventoryCountry=US&amp;color=040&amp;size=ONE%20SIZE&amp;type=REGULAR&amp;quantity=1\">canvas tote<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anthropologie.com\/anthroliving\/shop\/butterfly-garden-napkins-set-of-4?color=000&amp;type=STANDARD&amp;size=One%20Size&amp;quantity=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.anthropologie.com\/anthroliving\/shop\/butterfly-garden-napkins-set-of-4?color=000&amp;type=STANDARD&amp;size=One%20Size&amp;quantity=1\">cotton napkins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When she finds herself in a new place, she makes an effort to check out any local farmer\u2019s market she can find. It\u2019s an easy way to travel sustainably and, for Roberts, the experience of connecting with locals and stocking up on gorgeous fruits and veggies is a total self-care win. \u201cFarmers\u2019 markets offer locally grown produce, often with fewer packaging materials and a smaller carbon footprint compared to supermarket goods,\u201d she says. \u201cSupporting local farmers not only promotes sustainable agriculture but also connects you to the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of family farms, while you might not find a booth filled with cotton plants at the market, choosing naturally farmed cotton over other kinds of fabric is <a href=\"https:\/\/thefabricofourlives.com\/the-benefits-of-cotton\/cotton-farming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/thefabricofourlives.com\/the-benefits-of-cotton\/cotton-farming\">another way to support farmers<\/a>. So fill your tote with bursting berries, meet a new friend or two, and get to know the place you\u2019re visiting, all in one fell swoop. That\u2019s a healthy serving of self care.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Sun<\/h2>\n<p>With UV indexes at an all-time high, Roberts considers sunscreen a key step in her summer self-care routine. Take her lead and keep a stash in your bag\u2014but be sure it\u2019s the high-quality stuff. \u201cLook for [reef-safe] and mineral-based sunscreens that are free from harmful chemicals like oxybenzone and octinoxate,\u201d she says. \u201cThese formulations are better for your skin and the ocean ecosystems you may encounter during your travels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Add an additional layer of sun protection with comfy clothes you can wear and re-wear.
