I hope your new year's intentions included a place to reflect and relax. It could be a long weekend (3-5 days) or a vacation (7 or more days). I always have this debate on what constitutes a vacation. To me it needs to be 7 or more days. But, if you need a long getaway I recommend Pura Vida Resort in Costa Rica.
Pura Vida is one of the premier resorts for yoga and wellness in Costa Rica. I may be un petit peu (little bit) biased because Kimberly Wilson – mentor, yogi, and fried teaches an annual retreat there which I have to attend. This year I have family obligations in Louisiana so it's a no go. It's on the calendar for 2012 or 2013. I will get there eventually. A few inspirational lyrics from a few of my favorite songs.
I want to get away, I want to fly away . . . Yeah! Yeah!
[Lenny Kravitz]
Let Go and Let God!

Om Shanti. Om.
[Yogic Chant]
The hazy days go to nights returning on and on
The eye in the sky that don't lie be watching all y'all
The troublesome time filled anxieties just keep crawling on
And a dream world line up in your mind just keep on calling y'all
[Blackalicious]
Have you ever thrown a fistufl of glitter in the air?
Have you ever looked fear in the face and I said I just don't care?
[Pink]
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free o' I prayer
Closer to heaven above and closer to you!
[The Dixice Chicks]
Love Lenny! He and I share the same birthday though he’s almost double my age. Stevie Nicks, too.
Costa Rica looks so beautiful.
