This heavenly place is Willow Stream Spa at the Banff Springs Hotel in Banff, Alberta. I have to say that I'm not much of a spa girl but going to this place was one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had. Pure indulgence. It was a completely rejuvenating experience and I swear I looked and felt years younger when I left compared to when I got there. It all started when a girlfriend of mine suggested that we go together as a treat after spending two full days packing up my house (this was before we moved). The idea is that it would help me unwind and give me some time to myself in the midst of August chaos. I readily agreed. So, off we went, lattes in hand for an hour of great conversation and tons of laughter on our mini road trip there. We pulled up to the Banff Springs hotel, checked the car, and walked into Willow Stream Spa.....beautiful, perfect.
Planning is now underway for the ultimate retreat weekend for women -- "Rejuvenate Yourself, Rejuvenate Your Life". There's more to this weekend than just going to the spa but I'll save that for a later post. I don't know the exact dates yet but I'm tentatively planning one in November and two in February so if you're at all interested or curious, get in touch with me as space is limited (8 women/weekend).
