It’s a funny observation. Many of those who trek to Boracay come home feeling more tired and lethargic due to the island’s signature non-stop partying, not to mention the sunshine-soaked hangovers. However, there another side to the island that offers a haven of comfort and an overwhelming sense of renewal.
If I die and go to heaven, I’d expect to wake up in a private villa at Mandala Spa in Boracay. It may be a very strong statement but after a visit to this heavenly place, you’d completely agree.
I experienced a sampling of Mandala Spa’s new moves that gave me chills and goosebumps in a very good way.

Getting a treatment in Mandala Spa & Resort Villas is a definite must whenever I escape to Boracay. It’s one of the things that’s become so ingrained in my frequent visits to the island that I just can’t imagine a Boracay vacation without it. I always look forward to stepping into Mandala’s beautiful two-hectare-plus property of world-class spa facilities and 12 luxurious resort villas set amidst lush greenery.

[Summary] => 
It was an intimate exercise that started with me and my therapist in a small heated pool. Floating devices were wrapped around my joints to help me drift in the water. Afterwards, I was asked to let go of everything– emotional stress, anger, disturbing thoughts, et al. I then surrendered to my therapist’s arms as she cradled me for about an hour in the water making stretching movements, using the water as a life force to heal and relax me. During my experience, I felt emotions that I have not had since I was a child.

[Title] => What is your most unforgettable school experience?
[Summary] => All of us have one or two experiences in school that we will never forget. For some of us we remember how hard it was to leave our Mom when we had to go to school for the first time. But later on when we made friends at school we often chose to be with our friends rather than spend time with our family. There are so many firsts that school brings to mind – aside from the many lessons we learned (which at the time we may have thought were not so important) there was that first date, best friends, first boyfriend and so much more.
