After a painful breakup, there’s nothing quite as healing as grabbing a few girlfriends and hitting the open road. A girls' road trip is a fun distraction that can help you regain some of those precious feel-good hormones (serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin) you’re no longer getting from your ex. It can also help you reboot, refresh, and rediscover who you are, so you return home empowered to create a fresh start. If you’re currently nursing a broken heart, there’s never been a better time to hit the road with the girls and get your mojo back.

GAIN PERSPECTIVE
There’s something about being out on the open road with no real set schedule that reminds you life is unpredictable and full of possibilities. Your relationship has ended, but your life certainly hasn’t — you still have a future ahead of you. While you need to feel and work through your emotions, it’s also important to keep things in perspective so you’re not consumed by negativity.
That’s what a road trip can help with. When you’re stuck at home, reminders of your ex are everywhere. It’s hard to move on when even the tiniest little thing (like a song, coffee shop, or daily walk) makes your heart ache. A change of scenery and a catch-up with your girls can be a healthy distraction from sadness and past memories. A few days of pure, mindless fun and laughter will do you a world of good.
CREATE NEW EMOTIONS TO FORGET OLD ONES
Having new experiences and emotions is a great way to block out pain and eventually overcome it. Think of it as your psychological first aid. Try yachting, thrilling dune buggy rides in Dubai, or renting a high-speed car that you wouldn't dare to try in your everyday life. Even a trip to the exotic UAE can be a new experience for you. Renty.ae will help you quickly and easily with comfortable transportation around the city, whether in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or another city in the Emirates. They also offer luxurious entertainment such as a yacht party or a buggy tour in the desert.

A CHANCE TO PAMPER YOURSELF
One of the best ways to feel better after a breakup is to pamper yourself. So, when it comes to what you drive, where you stay, and what you eat on your road trip, choose the very best (in line with the group budget, of course). For example, a luxury car can take your road trip experience to a whole new level.
If you’re looking for inspiration, BMW is currently the world’s best-selling luxury carmaker. But, whichever make and model you go for, luxury cars are always stylish and packed with amazing features to help you make the most of your trip. It’s hard to feel sad when you’re sitting on heated seats and scream-singing along to your favorite songs playing on a premium sound system.

INCREASE YOUR SELF-CONFIDENCE
A girls' road trip can also help you recover some of the confidence and sense of self you may have lost post-breakup. This is your time to figure out who you are without your ex. With your friends, you’ll do things like make plans and decisions, work out directions, and solve problems. All these actions help build self-esteem. By the end of your trip, you’ll have discovered you’re not powerless in the face of life’s challenges and that you have self-agency.
