MAJORCA - A LOVELY SUNNY ISLAND TO SPEND YOUR HOLIDAYS




 

Valldemossa village is located in the Tramutana range hills, about 17 km from Palma. There was beautiful green view of mountains everywhere and a lovely village to visit to do some shopping and sightseeing. We went to see the statue that was made for Saint Catalina Thomas, she was born in 15th century in the village of Valldemossa.

                                                                                          
We stayed in Cala d'or and Santanyí, the beach above was closest to our holiday home.
There was clear blue water and sandy beaches surrounded by beautiful nature.

 Cala Figuera.
One of the bays we visited during a boat trip that started from Santanyí and took us to see many lovely beaches and landscapes.




Mondrago natural park is just beautiful. We went for a hike and stopped to meditate and to do some yoga at the top of the hill surrounded by the waves.


 
   Nice way to spend time in the evening.                       Cold Gaspazo soup in a hot day, yummy.                                                                        


 
Cuevas del Drach "Dragon Caves" are formed by water. It was exciting to visit these approximately 4km long dribbling caves near Porto Cristo. Towards the end of the visit there was a short classical concert performed by musicians on boat. Then we could do a short boat trip at the magical underground lake.


Have any of you been visiting Majorca? I felt that there was so much to do and see although this was my third time spending a holiday week there. First two times I was staying close to the capital Palma. : )

Why to use coconut during the hot summer months?

Image
I absolutely love coconuts and summer is the time when I can feel best the many benefits when consuming this tropical wonder fruit. Actually coconuts are one of the most nutritious of all fruits there is and there are also many ways you can  consume this precious  tropical fruit in order to reap most of its benefits.                                                 One of my favorite  drinks when practicing yoga during the hot summer months is coconut water. It just cools down the body from inside so well and it really quenches my thirst. Indeed coconut water is a great hydration drink as it contains about 95% water. Actually, fresh coconut water is one of the highest sources of electrolytes, and it can be used instead of a sports drink to prevent dehydration during rigorous exercise or extende...

WILD GREEN ENERGY FOR YOUR BODY AND SOUL

Image
Now is the time at the Northern Hemisphere when the nature is flourishing bright green and this is the time when we can also fully enjoy the nature's bounty. I think that green drinks are a great way to kick-start a new day and also many yogic scriptures encourage people to enjoy green juices and smoothies. Right now you can also add some real wild green energy to your body by simply collecting the commonly so annoying garden weeds like stinging nettle and dandelion from your own garden or some clean place near your home. Actually these weeds can be very beneficial for the human body. Nettle leafs contain high levels of protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, beta-carotene and high amounts of the vitamins A, C, D, and B complex. Nettle is an excellent dietary supplement because it has rich, diverse and balanced range of nutrients that are essential to the human body. Actually if you don't get som...
