  SPA FEATURE...a Spa Health Retreat just for YOU

How much do you cram into your life? When does an overload become an overload. We're continually adding new tasks, deadlines, people and experiences into our lives, some are by choice and some are not and that is what makes life - a juggling game.

I don't have children of my own, but my life is full on and I know that i need time out for me - to be by 'myself'. I hear my friends, colleagues and clients talk of their lives and how they manage to load them to the tilt with sports, school activities, social gatherings just to name a few - then there is what I call 'life maintenance'.

Yes, I call it 'life maintenance' because we all have to do it. It those components of life that are difficult to dodge, such as paying bills, washing and hanging out our cloths, going to the supermarket, making the bed... I constantly look at life and probe at ways of lessening 'life maintenance' but we cannot - the floors need vacuuming and if I wasn't the one vacuuming the floors I'd need to organise a house cleaner.

In addition to attending to life maintenance, there are things that just hit us out of the blue - your most used kitchen appliance goes on the blink, a family member falls ill, your telephone looses its ability to function - all on top of your regular day. Aaarrrhhhh......

It is at this time the most deserving thing you can do for yourself is to give time to yourself - to release and let go of all the things that you think so urgently need to be done. If you've done this in your life - surrendered -, you'll know the sense of relief and release of tension I'm talking about. If you haven't, give it ago - don't ramp-and-rave at the unexpected dramas - it is out of your control. What you need to do is feel and listen to your mind, body and spirit - ask yourself am I happy or tried and burnt out? Most people I talk with, will say - burnt out!

Here is when you can do yourself the most amazing favour - give time to yourself, to retreat, to escape, to rejuvenate - visit a Spa Health Retreat. It is a sanctuary where you are nurtured, where all your meals are prepared and served for you, where soothing skilled hands of a therapist will ease tension, where a medical practitioner will listen to your concerns. It is an amazing place to be. I've felt it and client's I speak with that were in need have felt the benefits. Karen Goudge

maya ubud resort & spa, bali
Release a new 'spiritual journey' in Ubud. The origin of the name Ubud is from the Balinese word ubad meaning medicine. This traditional village has always had strong spiritual healing elements related to the confluence of the two sacred rivers, the oos and the pakusera and abundance of natural healing plants and herbs that thrive in the area, as well as the numerous balians (natural healers) that practice there. The village has always had a strong spiritual aura surrounding it due to its ancient temples, priests and mystics. Away from the crowded tourist areas, this enchanting village with its breathtaking landscapes, artistic and cultural charm generates an ambience of spiritual tranquility amidst the gracious gentility of the Balinese.

Wish to take 'a spiritual journey' , more can be discovered above under Spa and Travel Experiences and at Maya Ubud, Bali
