Exhale deeply and open your eyes to find yourself at peace next to the calming waves of the Pacific or the relaxing blue waters of the Atlantic, or possibly you are atop a mountain surrounded by the natural wildlife sounds of the jungle.
If this sounds like your most recent yoga experience then you are most likely in Costa Rica.
Costa Rica has quickly become one of the world’s top yoga destinations and it isn’t hard to see why. Many yoga retreats/resorts have opened in this magnificent country filled with beautiful beaches, abundant wildlife, majestic mountains and even active volcanos! Costa Rica offers a great balance of convenience and nature so let’s get to it and talk about some of Costa Rica’s most visited yoga destinations.
Nosara
Nosara is a pleasant beach town located in the Guanacaste Province. The breaking waves make a wonderful soundtrack to you morning yoga session. Just down the road is the Ostional wildlife reserve, here you may have a few tiny visitors scurry past you as you free your mind and body as it is one of the world’s best places to see newborn sea turtles! Being in Guanacaste this region is also Costa Rica’s driest, giving you 5 months of pure sun from December to June and less rainfall throughout the rest of the year then other parts of the country.
Montezuma
Located on the southern coast of the Nicoya Peninsula, Montezuma is known as a very magical place. Something about it draws people here time and time again, as is also said with Sedona, Arizona. Montezuma’s beach is amazing and you will surely want to spend most of your time on its sands, but if after your routine you feel like getting your adrenaline pumping try walking up stream to the waterfalls where cliff-diving is the pastime.
Central Highlands
Costa Rica’s Central Highlands are vastly different then its coastal regions. In destinations like Alajuela and Cartago the cool mountains air is a delight as colorful parrots and other wonders surround you with a presence of naturalism. These destinations offer great mountains and valley views from high altitudes that are truly awe inspiring. Going through your routine of poses high in these hills is an incredibly calming experience.
Costa Rica also offers tons of other great yoga destinations, so explore some yourself! Never forget sometimes getting slightly lost is the best way to discover new experiences and beauty!

Ways To Live More Happily (1)
glitter-graphics.com
Many problems we have in the life are not real but invented by our mind. We often do not think about it but if we could change our attitudes, the life could change and become better.
So, what are those behaviours that ruin our existence?
We often judge others from our point of view. We do not pretend the person that does not have feet, for example, runs so as we do. But we pretend that others are able to do something so as we do it.
Specially, it's true for the mothers that pretend their children are perfect or at least so brave as the mother. And they suffer terribly if the child has not the capacities the mothers want he has. So many times I heared from my friends: I was so brave to study -why my child is so stupid???
The other wrong behaviour are the predictions. We "know" what this or that person will do in the next moment, in this or that situation. We act accordingly to our predictions -and create explosive situations. By the way, this is the main cause of most broken relations.
One of the reasons of the unhappiness is the dramatization of the situation. Some persons are very brave to create big problems from nothing. This behaviour creates anxiety. With all the consequences that are known to everybody.
Often, we create rules for ourselves. The rules we are not able to follow. We accumulate the tasks and suffer from different complexes that grow from nothing.

Raw Food Diet
Raw food... maybe, I'm not informed about it but I have to admit that I knew nothing before I read this article today.
Do you eat raw aliments? Well, salads, fruits... What else? Ah, I eat medical herbs I pick up in our soil when I go for a walk in the morning, in spring. And I make juices from them, too.
Who knows, maybe raw food could be the right solution to loose weight.
They say, fibers are very useful for intestine, they clean it and all the body, too. And the skin becomes young and beautiful, naturally.
Do you know what is my problem? I can't live without meat, sugar and fat. I'm able to eat 250 g of butter without anything. Only butter. I add 2-3 kg after that, I even feel bad some time later, but I can't resist on the tentation to eat it.
Raw food is not for everybody -those who has allergies, pancreatitis etc have not to experiment with raw vegetables because they can irritate the intestine. But in my case it is not so serious and I want to try, sincerely.
I'm not convinced, because I know that the vegetables sold in the shops grow often in not clean places. But, to be honest, where you can find clean ambience today? Only on my hill, where I live. And it will not be too natural because there paesants use very hard toxins to grow anything. And vegetables you grow personally in your garden will be contaminated, anyway.
Well, I will begin my diet immediately. I go to squeeze a lemon.
