A Journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.-Lao-Tzu
My first step is to travel to india to take part in a goddess retreat where I will be introduced to the Ayurveda Indian Healing Methods and take part in traditional beauty rituals that have been past down from generations since 1500BC .
