Have you ever had a vacation that just rocks your world? Your whole being? One where you come back a different person with a whole new outlook?

I hope you have! I hope that feeling shifted who you are and what you do in the most positive way possible. If not, I hope you get that chance really soon.

I just returned from one of these trips, myself. I was completely touched on all levels; physical, emotional, mental, sensual and spiritual. The place that cracked me open and stirred things up was Costa Rica. It has long been on my bucket list, but for many reasons, the time and conditions were just not right, until this year.

Sometimes we are so involved in our busy lives, doing what we do on the treadmill of life that we get so entrenched in our own little worlds. Often times, for me, travelling to new places, seeing new things, meeting new people, learning about different cultures and having brand new experiences opens my eyes and heart to the bigger picture of this entire universe and the one within us.

For me, travelling has always been part of my education. I learn about so many things, but mainly about myself. I've learned over the years that we cannot vacation from ourselves. Our qualities, traits, annoyances, personalities and habits come with us, but the more we learn about ourselves, the deeper we delve into our self's and become better connected beings.

I want to share this magical land and experience with you. I have posted a short little blog post about my trip if you want to read about it. And.... as you are reading this, I am planning on hosting a retreat in Costa Rica, hopefully this fall.

YES, you read it right! A PURE retreat in Costa Rica, to nourish your mind, body and soul.

I'd love hear your rockin' vacation story along with what you'd like to see if you were going to holistic health retreat in Costa Rica. What would you like to do there? What would you like to experience? What does your perfect healthy, nourishing vacation day look like?
