Chopra Center

California travel expert Veronica Hill of http://www.CaliforniaTravelExpert.com tours the Chopra Center, a world-renowned retreat for yoga and meditation run by Drs. Deepak Chopra and David Simon.

Located at the upscale La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, the Chopra Center is known for its restorative 3-5 day yoga retreats that combine hatha yoga, guided meditation and Ayurvedic massage therapies.

Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old Indian healing system.

There are plenty of day classes as well, whether you prefer a simple core yoga program or a yoga for kids session, offered Saturdays during their family yoga hour.

One of the best kept secrets is the complimentary group guided meditation, offered twice daily. A free one-hour Introduction to Meditation class is offered on Fridays.

Upon your arrival, take a moment to relax in the Chopra lounge with a cup of organic dosha balancing tea, or quietly browse their library for a yoga journal, spiritual book or yoga video.

While you here, don't miss the Gaandarva therapy, which combines a deep body massage set to the soundtrack of singing crystal bowls. It's the Chopra Center's signature treatment.

At the Chopra Center Store, you can stock up on tons of great yoga supplies including their signature yoga clothing, yoga mats and yoga music. Ayurvedic spa products, zafu cushions and handmade mandalas are also sold here.

Deepak Chopra is famous for his Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, which focus on several sound principles, including non-judgment, selfless giving, acceptance of people and circumstances, and using your unique talents to serve others.

No matter what your religion, it's a model way to lead your life.

Hi Veronica!

Will you also be doing a travel video for California's many Catholic religious sites? You know, like the Missions -- the Catholic religious sites that started much of California's history?

I certainly hope so.

Hi there, I actually am Catholic and I have two Mission videos in our library already. We will be filming all of the Missions. Thanks for your support — Veronica
