Holiday Mojo - Kate James

This has been the trip of a lifetime, I’ve made a connection to the land up here that’s different from anything I’ve felt at home.

Kate’s tip: Allow plenty of time to pack and be organised so you’re not up until 2am the night before you leave.

There’s something spiritual about Kakadu that makes you stop and contemplate the things that really matter in life.

Kate’s tip: Keep your connection with the outdoors alive by having lunch in the park or organise a short weekend break away.

The sheer expansiveness of the land puts everything into perspective.

Kate’s tip: Create time in your diary to reflect on your holiday and the experiences you’ve had.

This NT holiday has rekindled my sense of adventure, I’d forgotten how to be so spirited.

Kate’s tip: Take a holiday that offers something completely different to your every day life.

I watched our indigenous guide Wilfred walk on the sandy path, stepping carefully between the grasses, one slow step in front of the other.

Kate’s tip: Ease back into work and prioritise your time. Answer only urgent emails on your first day back and make sure you leave on time.

Wilfred knows that everything will be here tomorrow, now I understand that there is all the time in the world.

Kate James - Life Coach

Kate James, life coach and Director of Total Balance Group, describes ‘holiday mojo’ as the feeling of inner calm and vitality you get when you return from a rewarding holiday.

She says people often lose their ‘holiday mojo’ quickly because they undertake a holiday that doesn’t fulfil them personally.

You should consider travel destinations that offer interactive holiday experiences such as, being outdoors and in wide open spaces. This can help you feel revitalised and reconnected when you return from your vacation.
