I-Little Piece of Provence e-Finger Lakes
I-Mirbeau Inn & Spa iyindlu yokulala yamahhala angu-34 kanye ne-spa ku-Finger Lakes, evelele ngobuhle bayo. Kodwa ingabe indlu yasemakhaya eNew York ephuphuthekayo ingenza sengathi ikhona eProtevence, phansi kwesibonakaliso sebhuloho laseMonet kanye nedamu ngamabilise amanzi? Ingabe iMirbeau ingayikhipha ngempela?
Ngithole ithuba lami ukuthola ukuthi i-Mirbeau Inn & Spa iqalise yini i-Fresh Start Cleansing Retreat ekhethekile. Ngangikhathazekile kancane njengoba ngigijimela - indawo yokupaka izungeze indlu.
Kwakukhona umculo we-corny we-French cafe njengoba ngangihamba ngeminyango yangaphambili. Futhi ingabe unobhala wedesksi wayegqoka ngempela i-beret?
Kodwa-ke ngahlala phansi egumbini lokungcebeleka (into eyodwa cishe engazange ihambisane nokuhamba ngezindawo ezinkulu zokungcebeleka) futhi yathatha umoya ojulile. Igumbi lalilingana nomuntu, elinama-sofas ahlanzekile kanye nomlilo. Amafasitela abheka echibini, ibhuloho elimhlophe laseMonet nezindawo ezimnandi nezifudumele eziphuzi. Ngangikholelwa ngempela ukuthi ngise-European Inn. Kuze kube manje, kuhle kakhulu!
"I-detox" yami yaqala ekuqaleni, kodwa, njengoba kwakunjalo ngeSonto, futhi ikhekhe elikhulu lama-carrot ephuma ngeSonto brunch lalihlezi phansi, libiza kimi. Eqiniswe ngoshukela, ngaya egumbini lami, enye yezindlu zokulala ezinamakamelo amakhulu abavakashi kanye nendawo yokuhlala. Ngithanda igumbi lami. Kwakukhona indawo yokushisa igesi, izihlahla ngaphandle kwefasitela, kanye nesibhudo esikhulu esinamahlombe.
Kwakukhona isipho sokufika kwebhokisi le-herbal teas e-Tea Forte, eyaziwa ngekhwalithi yabo ephezulu kanye nezikhwama zomuntu ngamunye, okhethekile kubahlanganyeli be-Fresh Start.

I-Mirbeau Inn & Spa ingaphandle kwe-Skaneateles (ebizwa ngokuthi i-skinny-atlas) idolobha elicebile, elinemifanekiso elihle elisemaphethelweni asenyakatho yeLachaneateles Lake elide futhi elincane, eliphakeme kakhulu kwi-Finger Lakes. Kukhona ama-wineries aseduze (Isivini sika-Anyelas sibheke echibini), sithenga edolobheni elihle kanye nosuku oluya eSeneca Falls nase-Aurora eliseduzane.
Ukubeka Izinhloso Zethu
Kodwa iqembu lami laligxile kakhulu kithi! Lolu hlelo olukhethekile lugcina izinsuku ezimbili kuphela, nezikhulumi eziningana ukuze zisisize sisize thina. Ngobusuku bokuqala, sahlangana njengesiqhema se-"I-Purification Ritual and Ceremony Tea," eholwa uthisha we-yoga nommeli wokudla okuluhlaza uJuudann Cesta. Ukhulume ngezinzuzo zokudla okuluhlaza kanye nendlela yokuhlanza kanye nokuxosha impilo yethu ngokujwayelekile - ngokuqeda abantu abanobuthi, ngokwesibonelo, nokuthatha ukuphefumula ekuhlanzeni emini.
U-Judiann wakhuluma ngendlela yokubeka izinhloso, nokuthi ukuba ne-altare ekhaya kungasiza kanjani lokho. Sibhala izinto ezinhlanu esasizibonga ngazo, into esiyidinga kakhulu, nento esifuna ukuyilahla. Ingxenye ngayinye yephepha yangena ebhasikisini leqembu eliya e-altare.
Khona-ke sathola esinye isipho esamukelekayo - inkomishi enhle kakhulu ye-tea "Kati" ene-lid yokugcina itshisa. (Thenga manje) Siphuza indebe yokuxuba itiye ngokukhethekile ndawonye.
Khona-ke yayisemini yokudla, lapho kwakukhona izithiyo eziningi ze-detox! Sasihlala ekamelweni lokudlela elimnandi, elithandanayo, elidumile ngamagagasi alo! Akumangalisi ukuthi lesi sikrini asizange siqedele imenyu ye-detox. Akuyona nje into yakhe.
UMirbeau uyaziwa ngohlu lwawo lwewayini. Amatafula abekwe ngezibuko zewayini.
Futhi i-Wine Bar igcina amabhodlela angu-16 omuhle kakhulu ezimweni ezikhethekile ukuze ukwazi ukulawula ingilazi futhi uqiniseke ukuthi kuyoba esimweni esivelele. Sanciphisa, futhi sala iwayini eliphilayo. Ngobusuku obulandelayo, ngahamba ngokuphelele ekubhujisweni futhi ngine-Steak! Futhi kwakukhona konke okwakumele kube khona i-steak emihle kufanele ibe yiphunga elimnandi, elinamanzi, elithenda, futhi eliphekwe ngokuphelele. Akumane nje ukuxoshwa.
I-Spa enezimlilo emakamelo
U-Judiann uthatha isandla esingenalutho esikhathini esizayo samaRetireat Fresh Start. Amamenyu azoba ngu-80% ukudla okuluhlaza nokukhululeka kokubisi, inyama, ukolweni, gluten, ushukela ohlanziwe, ukudla okucutshungulwayo, i-caffeine no-alcohol. Futhi leli qembu lizodla endaweni ehlukile, kude nezilingo! (Uma ufuna i-romance ne-steak newayini elihle, ungahamba noma nini!)
Lapho siphindela emakamelweni ethu, ibhuku lalinamatshe amabili (amakomile kanye ne-rosemary) kanye nebhola elincane le-Aromatherapy Associates i-oil blend ebalulekile (thenga manje).
Ngangena emgodini. Okumnandi.
Ngakusasa sasinekilasi elikhulu le-yoga noJuudann, omunye wabafundisi abaningana esiteshini somzimba wengqondo. (Ungathola futhi ukuqeqeshwa komuntu siqu nokululekwa kokudla okunomsoco.) Khona-ke bekungena endaweni ye-spa ye-first of our two-minute spa treatments, ehlanganisiwe nentengo yephakheji.
Le spa enhle yenzelwe nguSylvia Sepielli, enezicingo emakamelo amaningi ekwelashwa angu-18. Ngemuva kokuthi uthole isambatho sakho ungena endaweni yokuPhepha, indawo egcwele nxazonke, ebumnyama, cishe ebunini-nanjengezivalo ezinemibala yezibalo zakudala ezindongeni, itshe elikhulu phakathi lizungezwe umfula wamanzi afudumele ungafaka izinyawo zakho , kanye nomlilo. Ibuye inezinto eziduduzayo ngokumangalisa izihlalo zokuphumula ngaphambi noma ngemva kokulashwa kwakho.
Ngakhetha i-Aromatherapy Ritual, esebenzisa lawo mafutha amakhulu a-Aromatherapy Associates, kodwa lapho kuvela umkhondo we-lymphatic drainage kwaba mnene kakhulu emahlombe ami aphukayo, umuthi walungiswa. Umsebenzi omuhle! Wanginika futhi amathiphu elula futhi aphefumula ukuxazulula izinkinga zami ekhaya, okuyinto abahlinzeki abaningi abazenziyo.
Ukwenza Amafutha We-Essential Amaqoqo
Ntambama sine-workshop emangalisayo ngamafutha abalulekile no-Amy Jane Stewart we-Organica Jane, uchwepheshe we-massage kanye no-aromatherapist oqinisekisiwe owavela kuDkt. Oz nge-Natural Hand Remedy. Wasitshengisa indlela yokwenza izingxube zethu zamafutha ezibalulekile ngokusekelwe kulokho esikufisa ukuba bakwenze, futhi iphunga esasikhangayo.
Ngalobo busuku sasizindla ngokuqondiswa noWil Alaura endaweni yokuPhepha, kodwa izihlalo zazikhululekile kakhulu ngangilele kakhulu. Ngemuva kwalokho, ngomlilo, wasibonisa indlela yokusebenzisa i-pendulum ukusiza ukuphendula imibuzo.
Kwakukhona nezinye izifundo ze-yoga ngakusasa ekuseni, kanye nokunye ukwelashwa kwe-spa okumangalisayo, okwamanje ukuhlunga okuyisisindo esijulile esivela kumuntu ochwepheshe waseRussia owazi kahle kakhulu onamandla futhi oqeqeshiwe. (Wafunda iminyaka emithathu eRussia.) Ngezinye izikhathi kwakungaphezu kwalokho engingayithatha, kodwa ngimvumela ukuba ahambe, futhi waphuma amafindo engangingazi nokuthi ayekhona.
Inkulumo yokugcina kwakuyi-Workshop "Living Balanced" workshop noJessica Charbonneau, isisebenzi senhlalakahle esisihola ngokuzivocavoca okucabangayo, lapho sagxila khona iphunga, ukunambitha nokuthungwa kokudla njengoba sasidla. Wasitshela indlela yokuhlukanisa phakathi kwesidumbu esiswini, indlala yehlombe (ikhekhe le-carrot), kanye nelamba lempumu - nendlela yokusebenza namaphethini amadala njengokudla okudliwayo.
Angikwazi ukusho ukuthi ngiyaxoshwa, kodwa ngafunda okuningi. Futhi uMirbeau wanginqoba. Ngangithanda ngisho nomculo we-French cafe ngesikhathi ngishiya!
