What a shocking weekend it has been.

The weather in the North West of England this past weekend has been absolutely appalling and the poor people who live there have had to endure a lot of upset.

Personally I have never known such heavy rainfall in my life. It seems relentless and never ending.

I decided to try and cheer myself up I would have a look at taking a nice relaxing holiday. Usually I enjoy taking action packed holidays. However, this year has been particularly stressful and I feel the need to escape this rotten country and go somewhere where I can be pampered and feel myself getting rejuvenated.

I was originally looking to visit the Caribbean as there seems to be a vast array of Caribbean Spa Holidays currently on offer. However some of the Spa Holidays in India look so beautiful that it is going to be a difficult decision to choose between the 2 destinations. I honestly never realised there were so many spa hotels to choose from, the list is endless. It’s so difficult to choose any one hotel, as they all look absolutely breathtaking and each has it’s own appeal. However, they all seem to have in common some fantastic facilities and brilliant activities.

After reading about the classes on offer, I will definitely be booking in for a yoga class or 2. A few years ago I started going to Pilates classes and really enjoyed them. I would imagine that Yoga is fairly similar in that it is very disciplined and controlled and makes you think about your body and how you hold yourself.

I am also going to book in for a couple of meditation classes. This is something that I feel would be of great benefit as I find it very hard sleeping through the night due to my mind always being on the go. The trouble is I find it very hard to switch off from my work and I get really worried that I haven’t done something I should have done. I am hoping that when I return from my holiday, I may just have learned a few meditation tips that might just enable me to switch off and enjoy a good nights sleep – here’ s wishing!
