Time to reflect

I have just been in Langkawi for 5 days after the Malaysian GP with 2 lovely girlies. We spent the week chilling, chatting, seeing and eating! Had an awesome time away from it all and much needed! Photos to come after I get back home and have time to edit them!I am now in the Banjaran Retreat in Ipoh, Malaysia. I have never seen anywhere so amazing.I've never been one for spa days and relaxation... Spending time on my own in solitude. This has proved that this is exactly why I needed to do this!

The place is in the mountains with 25 villas. Each with a private pool and jacuzzi! The living space is so relaxing and as it is half outside half inside, you are always in the open! Even the Geckos I found in my room didn't scare me surprisingly! Today I have had Reiki in which I was told I needed more Apple green around me. Funny as the word apple has cropped up in my life a lot recently! The reiki made me realise what I'm not doing and also how to start doing it. Being in this environment has helped me to work things out in my head and know what is important and what isn't. Working in a high pressure job can make your brain hurt.

A friend who I respect a lot who shall remain nameless..has recently told me how much I have changed in the past year. I can see that it is because I have let things get to me. I've become irrational and even more impatient and not grateful for what I have. So, thanks! You know I appreciate your words and your ability to make me smile :) Friends are also very important. I have some friends around me who probably know me better than I know myself sometimes. I appreciate each one of them and love them for who they are. Without them and this week to get my thoughts together I was falling apart! There's been a few who have had their ears constantly moaned at by me or their inboxes filled! You're all amazing :)

After Reiki, I had a personal yoga session so have learnt that as well as meditation and then an anti oxidant treatment basically shut in a hot room for 40 minutes. My inability to sit still and be quiet made this quite difficult so I started over thinking and stressing again but I've learnt how to cancel this out now! Just jump in the jacuzzi :) heheIf anyone ever wants to get away or just have some time to themselves or even a couples romantic holiday, I'd highly recommend this place! Theres natural hot spring water pools outside, meditation caves, swimming pool, wellness centre, and the scenery is amazing. Again, I'll post some pics when I'm home and can download them!Just chilling in my villa has totally chilled me out and I feel like a new person. I've never heard thunder like I have here though! I thought the mountains were crashing down!!!! Anyway I'm getting back to chilling...
