"A woman's life can really be a succession of lives, each revolving around some emotionally compelling situation or challenge and each marked off by some intense experience" Author unknown

We are making final preparations for this year's Annual Women's Retreats in Costa Rica (August - October).  These retreats are certainly a highlight of my teaching and coaching year, as we take A VIP Group of Women on a luxury tour of Costa Rica to exotic tent camps, Costa Rica's beautiful beaches and Rainforests.  It's a chance for the women to combine the vacation of a lifetime with a jump-start of mind, body and spirit.   In short, a just in time, Life-Lift!  In the past, some of our participants have experienced a recent life change (death, divorce, empty nest) and use this week ,in a completely different environment, to relax, renew and re-charge for their next chapter.  Other's simply need to escape the rat race and are duly warned to  leave their Blackberries behind. Tours, Workshops, One on One Personal Coaching and Yes, Pampering are part of the retreats as each participant works on 3 personal goals to create a (MAP) Mission Action Plan for the year ahead. 

Costa Rica, as you might know ,is already considered a mecca for a life-lift of a different kind---- plastic surgery, with state of the art cosmetic procedures at a fraction of U.S. Prices!  Indeed Medical Tourism is on the rise in Costa Rica with new hospital wings and recovery centers being built just to accommodate the growing demand of our Nip/Tuck society.   U.S. and Canadian visitors like the idea of recovering in Costa Rica's tropical paradise and returning from vacation really looking like a new person. I have worked with several women while they are recovering here and they have recognized that working with a life-coach might be a critical piece in their self-esteem make-over. 

Or as Rosalind Russell once noted"

"Taking Joy in life is a woman's best cosmetic"
