This has been an exciting week for me — first Skydiving (Freefallasana with a mantra of wheeeeeeeeeee) and then a day at the spa. I guess it makes sense to follow exhilaration with relaxation. In addition to doing a whole heck of a lot of relaxing (and napping in the “Relaxation Room”) at the spa, […]
