She took. me to the new Guerlain Wellness Center in the new Waldorf hotel. And my god, was it beautiful. Not only that, it was such a special afternoon that I am dreaming of going back. It was so enjoyable — both the treatment (we got facials) but the whole experience.

In October, I was lucky enough to participate in a 50-hour intensive Ayurvedic workshop. It was incredible. Learning about the doshas, the mudras, the mantras, the practice, the breathing, ALL OF IT, was an unbelievable, life changing, unforgettable opportunity.  Two months later, I am still reflecting on this journey, and am beginning to incorporate parts of my studies into my everyday life. I want to share more about this experience with you readers, bit by bit. And today, Pratima spa!
