DESTINATION FOUND: HEAVEN ON EARTH I admit I can be my own worst enemy. As an over-achiever, I am guilty of over-committing myself and in the process I create this crazy, fast paced lifestyle. Desperately in need of a recharge, I grabbed my best friend and found solace and rejuvenation in Costa Rica. Tucked into the arms of a quartz mountain overlooking the Nicoya Peninsula and Pacific Ocean seascape, I immersed myself into a state of complete relaxation for 5 magical days at the tropical luxury resort THE RETREAT COSTA RICA.
More than a luxury wellness destination; its restorative environment is a space for strength, renewal and letting go of the daily stresses of life.
Having just come off a whirlwind adventure traveling the Galapagos Islands and Peru I realized my second day in this nurturing and gentle retreat just how badly I needed this heavenly healing escape. My day-in-the-life of feeling fabulous at The Retreat started each morning with a flow yoga class. Practicing my Vinyasa in such a serene environment and taking in the 180-degree breathtaking views of the property’s lush mountain valley was the idyllic setting to find balance and hit the reset button. — continued on next page 32
