Lucy Hale Recommends Taking a Solo Trip

Lucy Hale puts herself first during a solo trip to Arizona.

In a recent Instagram post, Lucy Hale revealed that she spent “days hiking, meditating, and spending time with [her]self.”

The multiple picture post shows Hale looking refreshed and relaxed as she lounges under the sun. With the disclaimer “this is a long caption,” Hale emphasizes the importance of putting your needs first. The Road Between singer writes, “This trip was a beautiful reminder that my health and happiness are crucial to the life I want to live and in order to be the best for my career and my loved ones, it’s necessary to do really nice things for yourself.”

Disclaimer : this is a long caption. For the last week I took a solo trip to Arizona. (FYI -if you want to feel spiritually recharged, Come here.) I spent my days hiking, meditating, and spending time with myself. I’ve never done this before because I used to feel that putting myself first was selfish. It’s not. Not only is it healthy, but it’s necessary so that you can be the best for everyone else around you. I know this happens in other industries other than the one I’m in, but it’s incredibly easy to get sucked into the vortex of worrying about the next job, the success of a current one and what others think of you. This trip was a beautiful reminder that my health and happiness are crucial to the life I want to live and in order to be the best for my career and my loved ones, it’s necessary to do really nice things for yourself. SO, I highly recommend treating your mind, body and spirit right ( and taking a solo getaway). Thank you Arizona, I feel so refreshed 🙏🏼

The Pretty Little Liars alum and singer has had a busy year promoting Dude, Truth or Dare, and Life Sentence, so we can see why she would need a getaway.

Practicing self-care by putting yourself may seem selfish, but as Hale points out, it’s necessary for achieving your best self.

As the weather warms up, it may be the perfect time to take a solo getaway like she suggests.
