Last weekend my boss sent 4 of us girls off to Salt Spring Island Spa Resort. It was the most awesome time spent! We were pampered to the nines!
Leaving Thursday after work to catch the ferry.. we arrived at the resort at 11:30 pm. We went to our Chalet...4 beds, kitchen, spa bath, wood stove, and a lovely view of the ocean!
First off Friday I had a Facial... the first facial i ever heard of where i had to remove my clothes (under the sheets of course)... she wanted no restrictions and all relaxation! Well it was all that.. lol. then we were off to Ganges Village to do a little shop and dinner.
Saturday was Pedicure and Reike day... the pedicure wasn't all that.. i would have enjoyed a good massage on my feet rather than painted toenails lol. the Reike massage was one of the most powerful and spiritual feelings i ever had! It is the healing with hands... and the guy who did it knew what he was doing. I felt things moving about and leaving my body... I felt so energized .. and recommend it. Everyone was done by 1 pm...we had lunch and then left for a tour down to the south point of the island called Fulford.. wow.. so small and cute!
We headed back to the Chalet as we had a meeting with Tema, a Tarot Card Reader. She was amazing...we each had our own session with her and all I can say is WOW! She felt my cards vibrating as she laid them out after I shuffled them and put them on the table. Tema isn't a psychic, but she said my energies are very high and she hasn't sensed that before from anyone. She actually said I should do a reading on her... lol. Maybe one day when I have the time and lifestyle I could strengthen my inner psychy...one day... For now I will just focus one day at a time and keep my spirit healthy and happy.
That eve, we went for a bit to eat then walk out on the pier... I noticed a seal out on the water... and i was playfully making seal sounds and clapping my hands (yes my inner retardedness..haha) Amazingly enough the seal started swimming towards the doc....lol He was playing hide and seek with us.. it was dark so we couldnt see him in the water untill he poked his head up...
Sunday morning.. we started off with a Yoga session... ahhh i love yoga... relaxation at its finest! then we were off to do some more shopping ... a huge sidewalk sale kept us so busy we almost missed the last ferry off the island at 3! haha.. not that we would have minded staying another night...lol
Thanks to our boss...we had a very relaxing and spiritual enlightening weekend.
