Wheatgracias

When bad habits and good habits collide something good can come from it. At least we feel this way because this collision involves relaxing at a spa.

Grand Velas Los Cabos spa on Mexico’s Baja Peninsula wants to mix up fun and health with its Wheatgrass Margarita kit. With February 22nd slated as National Margarita Day, guests of the Wellness Suites will find this gift awaiting them.

Lucky!

Wheatgrass is high in nutrients and antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E, as well as iron, magnesium, calcium, and amino acids. It’s also known to lower cholesterol.

Does that mean we can devour a cheeseburger with a wheatgrass shake?

Probably not.

The Wellness Suites offer all kinds of fitness and wellness amenities, including a MUSE brain sensing meditation headband, artisanal soap selection, healthy gluten free snacks and daily juice options, water menu, and an in-suite exercise kit comprised of a yoga mat, dumbbells, resistance bands, and even an exercise bike.

Water menu? That’s fancy. We’ll take ours bottled (it is Mexico).
