Take Off:
"I was going to go to Europe, but I knew if I went there it would be very hectic. I finally decided I wanted to go on a vacation by myself and totally unwind, so I went to the Canyon Ranch health resort in Tucson, Arizona. It's well-known as one of the best spas in the world. I looked at a couple of others, and I chose this one because it was relatively close by. I've been to spas before, but this one has more of a spiritual vibe to it. To an extent, I'm interested in Eastern homeopathy and I wanted to experience it. You're in the desert and you wake up early, like 5:30 in the morning. At the Canyon Ranch, they specialize in massage, acupuncture, meditation and yoga. I did the whole thing. I tried a lot of stuff that I have never done before. I've been working hard, so it was nice to do something relaxing. I can really say that the high point was spending time with myself. It's very solitary. You take classes, but it's not about schmoozing. It's very much about going there and getting into yourself and being introspective. That's something I wanted to do. As hectic as my schedule is, I don't get the opportunity to do that a lot, and it was nice to make time just for me. It was wonderful."
"One of the instructors at the spa was also a martial arts guy, so I hooked up with him [and] worked out with some serious kick boxing."
"The spa doesn't have horseback riding, but they facilitated it so that I could go to a stable nearby to ride."
