As always, balanced well-being isn’t perfect. It’s better.

For a get-away, it means a little planning, but plenty of room to wander, eating well but keeping a “when in Rome” mindset, movement that feels good but maybe at a slower pace, and perhaps sharing it with others. (Though sometimes, time alone is just the answer). You’ll know what you need.
