点评:I decided to book a yoga retreat for my 40th birthday and after A LOT of research and comparing, I went with Vita Pura. I was absolutely blown away with this experience. It was so much more than I could've ever expected. The resort was awesome: having that amazing room to come back to and relax in was incredible. The location and convenience was perfect. The retreat itself - INCREDIBLE. The leaders (Taylor and Minyon) made this experience so unique and well-rounded. The beautiful hikes, mindfulness, meditation, breathwork, and yoga practices all out in the most mind-blowing landscapes - almost indescribable. All of that aside, the group of women that came together for this experience was beyond incredible as well - we all fell right into conversations and became instant friends. Those friendships, conversations, meals together, and time spent opening up and sharing our journeys - will be just as memorable as the hikes and practices. I was so nervous about going somewhere completely by myself for the first time ever - knowing no one - and I left with such a sense of power and with so many new friends. I had the perfect balance of alone time to recharge plus the group time to share and get to know the others - sharing our experiences and journeys.
The locations, the practices, the leaders, all came together in this perfect harmony of just what I needed. Forget fitness-driven yoga, this was a time for connection, spirituality, and being IN the moment. I would love to make this a yearly tradition, getting back to this incredible place as often as I can. This was an absolutely incredible birthday experience that I will never forget!

地点、练习、领导者,一切都完美地融为一体,这正是我所需要的。忘记以健身为导向的瑜伽吧,这是一个联系、精神和活在当下的时刻。我希望把这变成每年的传统,尽可能多地回到这个不可思议的地方。这是一次绝对令人难以置信的生日体验,我永远不会忘记!
