Sensual EscapeIt was time for a sensual escape. It's time to let our hair down. Step out of restrictive clothing. Discover a place where we could leave the tensions and worries of civilized society behind.
This particular location had it all; a beautiful, pink sandy beach, beach umbrellas and a place to change. Refreshing, fruity drinks were served by the most beautiful cabana boys, there to satisfy your every need. And sustenance was always at the ready to keep you deliciously satisfied without getting too full. The town of Aghia Galine, located in the south of Crete, this seaside resort was like stepping back in time. Life was slower here, demands were fewer, and life was simpler.
Against the brilliant blue sky, the freshly painted white walls and winding cobblestone paths, transport you into a dream state of heaven on earth. When you get the chance, indulge in a professional massage by the sea. As the tension is pressed out of your muscles, nothing smells more intoxicating than the salty breeze. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, take your time. When you’re indulging your senses, time does not exist, nor should it. Every moment can be savored, lingered over, enjoyed for all it is worth. And what is it worth? It is the quality of living, fully, doing for yourself what your mind, body and spirit need to rejuvenate, without worry, fear, aggravation or tension. Part of the sensual escape is enjoying delicious cuisine. If it is truly the heaven I propose, it is mostly freshly caught fish, minimally cooked so that its mouthwatering flavor delights your taste buds, as it sustains your body with pure protein, easily digested. Take small bites. Chew slowly. Complement its flavor with a glass of white wine for an overall experience. There is no rush. No need to go anywhere, see anything, do anything, save what you are doing right now. Not everyone can afford to go far away from their routine for a vacation. Limited financial resources, children, a demanding job, are all restrictive to our ability to indulge in such luxuries. When that is the case, the next best sensual escape is in your bathroom, and specifically, your bathtub. Set candles for mood, scent and ambience. Have a warm, plush towel ready for when you’re done. Add scented bath crystals to the tepid water. Immerse your overworked, overstressed body into this liquid form of heaven and relax.
The bath may not be a drastic change of location, but it is another world, and a sensual escape. Simple, relaxed, rejuvenating, a reconnection to your natural state-enjoy!
