PAIGE'S RETREAT!

 

While I finish planning out the details of our next Lithe Escape, I'm heading out of town to one of my favorite places in the world (Jake's, Treasure Beach, Jamaica) to spend some time with some of my favorite people at Paige Chapman's Jamaican Yoga Getaway.

Think: Yoga, spa treatments, delicious food from Jamaica's bread basket, snorkeling, quiet nights, ocean breezes, sunshine and salt air.  There are a few spots left. Who wants to come with?  April 19th-23rd.  If we overfill Jake's we can stay at the beautiful Hope House!

PARIS EATS.

Jordan and I just returned from a fantastic 5 day getaway to one of my favorite cities.  We did nothing but sleep in, walk the city (never took the metro or a cab once!), eat and drink.  I have a "I'm Loving (Paris)" post coming to you soon, but here are some of the amazing spots that we were lucky enough to enjoy some of the best food in the world. 

If you're hitting up Paris sometime soon check out:  You can't go wrong with any bottle of champagne, but Claude Carre et Fills rose was one of my favorites (at Lescure), coffee at Hotel de Vendome, Comptoir de la Gastronomie for lunch, Pierre Herme Macaroons, American Chef, Daniel Rose's Spring (one of my top 5 dinner experiences ever!), L'Atelier de la Robuchon, classic French at Lescure, dinner at Alcazar and Pierre Jancou's Vivant.

GONNA FLY NOW.

Taking a nod from Sayeh, this blog post should be read while listening to Bill Conte's Gonna Fly Now.

Lauren,
Here are some pictures from our hike of Mount Liamuiga in St. Kitts which is a 3,792 foot tall volcano. We hiked to the top in about two hours and it took another two hours to get back down. It was an amazing experience and I have lithe to thank for it! It was a strenuous hike - imagine doing 4 straight hours of hipster lunges on the tall box!  The whole way up our guide was telling us all these stories of how people who had personal trainers, went to the gym everyday, etc. and STILL couldn't make it to the top. But every time he asked if we wanted to stop to take a break, we screamed "let's keep going!'.  The picture of us at the top right is looking down into the volcano's crater.

- 30 DAYS UNTIL LITHE ESCAPE!

Greetings Spring Lithe Escapees... Our Lithe Escape is less than one month from today! Soon we will be in gorgeous Harbour Island, Bahamas...sigh.  Attached here you'll find our general info sheet/FAQ. This document includes some of our most asked questions which will make your whole Escape experience much more smooth and carefree.

One thing both Liz and I like to stress the most is: RELAX, you're on Island Time! The speed and efficiency that exists in Philly/NYC does not exist on Island Time.  Things change, and the pace is slower down in the islands.  The best thing you can do is slow down, and embrace the simpler, slower pace of life (and the time it may take to get things done), and know you will get back to your super efficient and fast-paced lifestyles one week later! 

In the meantime, get excited for girl time and down time, A healthier body and mind, confidence, lessons learned, unbelievably delicious food, fantastic fitness, inches and pounds lost (without going hungry), unparalleled results and an entire support system of like-minded women.  Feel free to email us with any questions/concerns. We're all ears. We are looking forward to meeting new Escapees, and greeting old ones.
