Hello my beautiful people welcome back to the moments podcast I'm your host Lexi if you're new here

thanks for tuning in and if you're not thanks for sticking around I know we've been going

out this for quite some time now but I want to do an episode today pretty bite-sized. I want to keep it short, I want to keep it sweet, I want to get to the point, I want to tell you what I'm thinking, and then have you move on with your day and go apply it to your life and just enjoy the day enjoy the week and be as bright and vibrant as you always are.

I love you guys so much by the way. I've just been thinking about how grateful I am for this community that we've built and I've been having so many ideas and things that I want to venture out on with this podcast and slowly but surely we're getting there and we're doing it and we're setting things in stone and I'm

getting ahead of myself I am leaving for Costa Rica tomorrow and if you guys

don't know Costa Rica is a trip that I've been going on. The same yoga retreat for the past 10 years of my life.

This might even be my 11th year going. I first went when I was 13 years old and it was a yoga

retreat that just changed my life.

I went to this place in the mountains,

in this yoga room where the walls are all glass.

I connected with nature.

I really escaped my own little bubble for the first time in my life when I went on this trip.

It was my first time doing anything alone that that serious and that far away from my family.

And it was really hard, but it was the most peaceful and rewarding thing that I've ever done.

And every single year that I go feels the exact same.

And I could not be more excited.

Usually I go with a friend or my mom comes this year I'm just going me I'm riding solo I

wanted my boyfriend to be able to come but he can't come this year so hopefully next

year but anyways I at first was like a little bit bummed that I'm going solo but then I was really

really happy because I know and understand how important it is to do things alone.

I just never want to do things alone when I'm at home because why be alone if I don't have to, you know? Like I of course I spend time with myself while I'm home, my journal, I do things like go get my eyebrows done alone, but you know what I mean. I never do anything serious and far and long term like this by myself.

And I am so excited to just go. The reason I bring up this trip
