Destination Spa Group Reveals the
First-Ever Spa Lifestyle Pyramid
TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 22 - Destination Spas from around the world recently
unveiled a new health tool, "Pieces of You" -- a Destination
Spa Lifestyle Pyramid. "Pieces of You" represents the Destination
Spa Lifestyle formula for achieving a healthy and happy life. The
model is the first of its kind that advocates the spa lifestyle and
incorporates an individual's whole life -- mind, body, and spirit
-- as compared to focusing on just one aspect of wellness.
"The Destination Spa Lifestyle Pyramid is about the mind-body-spirit
connection and the importance of implementing strategies to address
all of them in a complementary manner," states Michelle Kleist,
Executive Director of Destination Spa Group. "Incorporating all
components into our daily lives is essential for achieving well-being."

The mind, the body, and the spirit must be in harmony
with each other for optimal health. They are interconnected -- weakness
in one may hinder another area's development, whereas strengths in
all areas can work synergistically. The Destination Spa Lifestyle
suggests how to keep the pieces of you in balance and attain total
wellness.
The Mind
The mind is constantly active -- guiding our behaviors,
continuously yearning for more knowledge, and seeking emotional bliss.
People can satisfy and control their minds by continually stimulating
them with information, engaging in creative outlets, and finding a
sense of security.
The Body
The body thrives from active movement and healthy nutrition
during the day and abundant, restful sleep during the night. Taking
good care of yourself by nourishing the body with whole, nutrient-dense
foods, exercising daily, and sleeping in regular patterns, adds enjoyable
and productive years to life.
The Spirit
The spirit is the life spark. It is a living part of
everyone, which encompasses purpose. When people focus on building
meaningful relationships and strengthening faith to understand that
purpose, their guided spirit grows.
The Destination Spa Lifestyle Pyramid (2-D or 3-D) is
available on the Destination Spa Group website and at all Destination
Spa Group locations where Destination Spa Lifestyle classes are taught
daily. Examples of these classes include Meditation 101, Hike for
Health, Hands-On Cooking demonstrations, arts & crafts, Fitness
for Home, journaling, and herb gardening. Collectively, a Destination
Spa vacation provides the tools and teaches the skills for guests
to start living the Destination Spa Lifestyle and ultimately achieve
well- being.
A destination spa is defined as an environment that
