HOTEL PALACIO ESTORIL NEAR LISBON
The glorious Hotel Palacio Estoril has a wellness centre, where a floor of scented, sure-handed Banyan Tree treatments is capped by two floors of fitness and medical. Fashionable Portuguese have been taking the waters at Estoril since the 19th century, and the spa funnels that tradition through jets of hydro-massage, Vichy pampering and sessions in the therapy pool – wobbling to maintain yoga poses on an oversized surfboard; pedalling underwater while a sergeant-major voice instructs you to ‘push the water’...

BEAUTY MYTH A ‘BASE TAN’ WILL PROTECT YOU FROM GETTING A SUNBURN
According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a tan does not provide enough protection against the sun. Actually, a tan is really like a big scab, says the CDC.

YOU MUST TRY...
BABY GOAT YOGA A new trend has taken the yoga world by storm: baby goat yoga. Also known as caprine vinyasa, baby goat yoga has gotten hundreds of people practicing their asanas in the company of adorable…baby goats.
What’s it about? During a typical baby goat yoga session, the participants are more than welcome to pet the goats or focus on the yoga practice — but the goat kids are likely to make the class more challenging than normal by climbing on you while you’re trying to keep a pose. With tremendous energy and playfulness, but also a short attention span, the baby goats will attempt to break your concentration and get you to play with them instead.
What are the downsides? The goat kids are also known to pick a random mat for a quick nap — or even a random yogi to nap on if they manage to climb on your back or in your arms.
What are the benefits? Doing yoga with baby goats is an exercise in concentration, but it can also be a humbling lesson about different forces of nature and life energies coming together under the same roof.
Is it any good? Said another way: it’s pretty hard to take yourself or life too seriously when there are baby goats involved, so it’s a great way to break from your normal mindset and relieve stress.
