Time to take a wellness break

When I think of detoxing or healthy living, my mind goes to those awful green, goopy drinks made with bitter tasting veggies. Yes, they’re good for you, but are they FUN?

Absolutely not. 

Since I much prefer a more luxurious manner of healthy living, I’ve assembled a few places to get away that are not only GOOD FOR YOU, but FUN to visit as well. Whether you’re looking to channel that yogi that’s been hiding inside, or are a water baby type, you should find the BEST match for YOUR wellness vacation.

Channel Your Inner Yogi

With sweeping views of Lake Atitlán and its three majestic volcanoes, Casa Palopó is perfect for yoga-enthusiasts seeking to escape the everyday and channel their zen. The cozy, seven-bedroom boutique hotel’s “Yogis in Atitlán” package includes daily breakfast at 6.8 Palopo, one spa treatment per person in the privacy of their guest room terrace or Balinese-inspired boutique spa, round trip airport transfers, and daily personalized yoga lessons overlooking Lake Atitlán. This October, Casa Palopó prepares to host its first 7-day “Detox Week” retreat, which includes spa treatments, healthy cooking demonstrations and health professionals as guest speakers.

Achieve The Ultimate Zen

Santa Barbara Beach & Golf Resort

Sprawled across Santa Barbara Plantation’s 27-acres of rare natural preserve, this breathtaking property is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of every day life and focus on restoring your mental and physical energies. When not calmly enjoying the secluded stretch of white sand beach, guests can hike, bike, play tennis or try their hand at a range of weekly fitness classes like the resort’s Aqua Tai Chi class. To take your complete wellness plan one step further, sign up for the resort’s new PIAI Health & Wellness Program in November where you will learn how to heal yourself by finding a balance with nature.

  1. First of all I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing. I’ve had a hard time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips? Thank you!|掲示板}

  6. With almost everything which seems to be building inside this specific subject matter, many of your points of view tend to be relatively refreshing. Nonetheless, I appologize, but I do not subscribe to your whole suggestion, all be it exciting none the less. It appears to everyone that your remarks are not entirely validated and in fact you are your self not even fully convinced of your argument. In any event I did take pleasure in looking at it.

  8. Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Chrome. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Many thanks

  9. Throughout the awesome scheme of things you actually secure a B+ for effort. Where exactly you actually lost me personally ended up being in your specifics. You know, it is said, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be much more true right here. Having said that, let me inform you exactly what did do the job. The authoring is certainly really powerful which is probably why I am making the effort in order to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, while I can notice the leaps in reasoning you make, I am not necessarily convinced of how you appear to unite your ideas that help to make the final result. For now I shall yield to your point but wish in the future you link the dots better.

  12. My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
