ith all the technological
advances of the 21st century,
people are more connected than
ever before.We can communicate
instantaneously with smart phones
that outwit anything M created for
007, and FOMO (fear of missing out)
has us scrolling through Instagram at
speeds resembling Jamaican sprinter Usain
Bolt. If all of this hustle and bustle, rapid
innovation and constant communication
leaves you feeling a little fried, here are a few
ways to disconnect, unplug and recharge
your own batteries without having to
venture to the far corners of the planet.
At the posh Spa at Turf Valley and
27,000-square-foot Haven on the Lake,
you’ll find rest and relaxation with luxurious
body treatments that pamper and soothe
stresses away. Relax at the Salt Sanctuary
of Maryland and let the salt air improve
your wellbeing. Ooh la Lal Hair Salon and
Spa, Salon Marielle and Envy Salon will
transform you from frazzled to fabulous.
Mind-body classes are a wonderful way to
manage the stresses of modern life. Columbia
