Moving can be very stressful, so what do you do when circumstances or opportunities require that you relocate? How do you get through a move in one piece? You might begin by following these helpful stress relief tips.
Start early
Few feel relaxed under a deadline, but having the benefit of time can help calm the nerves. The time to start planning for your move is as soon as you know you need to move.
Get Organized
The number one method for alleviating emotional stress when moving is to feel like you have control over what’s happening. As illusory as that control maybe, being organized will help you handle the unexpected. First, come up with a relocating schedule that will help you break the moving process into phases. Detail exactly which task needs to be accomplished when. Use a checklist to make sure you are taking care of necessary goals by their due dates. Create a system that works to help you keep track of everything. Whether you make up your own or get help from someone with moving experience, having a model to work from will be your saving grace.
Make it easy
Don’t be married to an initial moving plan simply because it was your first. As you do the footwork, you may discover there is an easier way to get the move done, and you should embrace this! Sure, driving your car cross-country might have seemed the only affordable option initially, but a search for reputable auto shippers and a sale on air fares could make all the difference between a stressful move and a more relaxed one. The same philosophy goes for packing. Rather than take on the entire process yourself, be sure to get quotes for having movers assist you.
Schedule time for stress relief
In the weeks leading up to your move, you may be so focused on getting everything done that you neglect your own health. Coping with a move requires that you stay physically and emotionally fit, so get plenty of sleep, eat well and get some exercise. This would also be a good time to schedule a massage or a spa session. If time allows, try to get a weekend or at least a night away so that you can take your mind off your move for a little while.
Ask for help
Obsessive-compulsive people and the detail-oriented among us often have trouble asking for help. While you are making your thorough preparations, also be sure to contact friends and family on both sides of your move to help you in any way possible. Many hands really do make the work lighter, which can relieve a lot of stress. You’ll be glad for the company, too.
Look forward to the end results
Yes, you know moving will be hard and potentially fraught with stress, but you will survive it. Many others have gone before you and lived to tell about it. Know that there is nothing that can happen that you can’t handle and focus on the potential for new growth and adventure in your new home. Moving is one of the more stressful things we can experience, but there are ways to make it easier. Prepare, get organized and stay flexible. Before you know it, you’ll be unpacking your things in your new home and wondering what all that worry was about!
Travel Checklist When Moving With Pets
Veterinary records, certificates, and recent photos
Medications
Beds (pillows, towels, or other crate liners)
Plastic bags and scoops for dogs
Your pets' usual foods and plenty of water from the home you're leaving (changing their water source can be disorienting and upset their stomachs)
Food and water bowls, a can opener, and resealable lids
Leashes for cats and dogs
Litterbox for cats
Cage covers for birds and rodents
Paper towels for messes
Toys, chew bones, and treats
Provisions for the first day at the new home
Take Your Time When Packing. Stretch out your moving preparation time over several weeks. Avoid panic in the last days. Take steps to ensure that moving day is as relaxed as possible for you and your pets.
Make Travel Arrangements For Your Pets.
If your move involves air travel, contact airline carriers one month in advance. Ask about their pet regulations, and make reservations. Choose a nonstop flight to avoid extra handling and climate and airpressure changes.
Visit Your Pet's Veterinarian Before Moving.
A couple weeks before moving, request a copy of veterinary records, a rabies vaccination certificate, and a health certificate. Be sure your pets are up to date with their shots. If your pet is a senior or has health problems, ask whether a mild sedative would be advisable before travel. Can your vet recommend another in your new location? For out-of-state moves, contact the State Department of Animal Husbandry or the state veterinarian about entry regulations—almost all states have entry laws for most animals except tropical fish.
Microchip Registration. Update your new information with the company that placed the microchip.
Don't Change - Maintain Your Pet's Routine.
Keep your pets' routines, such as feedings and walks, as normal as possible in the week before moving. Because dogs and cats need to feel in control, they might exhibit behave oral changes or even become ill when stressed. Treat them with the same level of attention you would ordinarily give them.
Make A Special Room For Your Pet. A few days before moving, choose a small room to be the "pet room." Tape a sign to the door that says "Pets: Do Not Open." Make the sign large enough that friends or movers can see it easily. Move food and water bowls, as well as toys, into this room. Provide dogs and cats with sturdy carriers equipped with litter box (for cats), chew toys, or favorite objects that have a familiar smell. Leave carrier doors open so pets can adapt to them before travel day. On moving day, keep animals in their carriers. As an alternative, consider boarding dogs and cats, or ask a friend to care take your dogs during the last few days.
Get Tags And Leashes For Your Pets.
If you have a dog or an indoor/outdoor cat, buy or create identification tags with your new address and phone number. Be sure your pets are wearing them during travel. While you're at it, pick up a cat leash—you'll need it if you're taking a long road trip or an airplane.
