Spas Spas Spa Basics Plan A Spa Visit Spa Treatments From Anitra Brown, your Guide to Spas I want to take you on a detailed journey of the Balanced Life Retreat at Stoweflake in Stowe, Vermont, because there were so many lessons. The terrible, the unexpected, the wonderful all went on, and because we were working with prana, which is energy or life force, a wonderful group of women were able to make it through together. When Getting To Neutral Is Enough The first night Dr. Claudia Welch started developing the theme of "neutrality" that would become so important as our five-day retreat unfolded. Neutrality is not something that our culture celebrates. "Being productive is the be-all and end-all, and relaxation is frowned upon in our culture," Claudia said. "This hasn't always been the case."
