5 Ways to Hack the Long Dark Winter

Stayin' Alive in Florida

Let’s face it: 2020 has really tested humanity. Perhaps it’s time for a change of scenery … to a healing place where the birds are singing, citrus is ripening, the sun is shining and love is in the air. We’ve got what it takes to rekindle the joy in your hearts with good old-fashioned fun in short-sleeve weather. As temperatures dip into freezing up north, we invite you to Pyramids in Florida to warm up, chill out and lighten up. We are safe for families and open for vacation. There’s plenty of space in your personal-size pyramid as well as room to breathe and roam in our landscaped nature reserve — barefoot if you dare.

Hack 1 – The Sun is PURE Joy

Our sun is the source of all life on the planet. We’d be lost in the dark without our shining star. But don’t fret, the anti-dote is located in Fort Myers, and all you need to do is show up and look up at the bright yellow ball in the sky. If you live where the sun don’t shine, we recommend boot scootin’ down to Florida to get your doctor recommended dose of vitamin S.

  • Increasing sun exposure creates Vitamin D in the body. Vitamin D boosts your skeletal infrastructure like solid foundations, smooth roads, and strong bridges.
  • Sun exposure generates gratitude and joy. Happy feelings elevate your body’s frequency to a higher vibration, making you more resistant to pathogens and dis-ease. This is called Energy Medicine. It’s quantum. Get used to it.
  • People who experience winter blues otherwise known as SAD (season affected disorder) need lots of sun to dispel the dark feelings within. What are you waiting for? Let us help you with additional onsite therapy.

Hack 2 – Doctors Orders: Vitamin Smoothies

After checking into your cool pyramid vacation rental, you’ll notice the large bowl of fresh citrus and tropical fruits on the house. See the large blender on the counter? We’ve left you a fresh Florida treasure to blend into your favorite Vitamin Sun Smoothie!

  • The citrus groves of Florida are bursting with oranges, limes, lemons, and mangoes your body needs during the ‘Dark Winter’ months. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and natural beauty tonic for lush hair, smooth skin, and good nails.
  • The more fresh and alive the food, the better your body can read all of the information in the form of nutrients. Eating fresh raw foods is paramount to staying vibrant and healthy.
  • Citrus fruits balance the body’s PH, making the blood more alkaline. Many Americans and Europeans suffer from issues related to high acidity (gout, arthritis, high blood pressure, acid reflux, skin disorders, headaches, constipation, depression). Eat more fresh seasonal fruit!

Hack 3 – Tarzan Meet Jane

Tropical Heat. Cleansing Springs. Jungle Love … Yeah, Baby! These are simple things that refresh the spirit. Pyramids in Florida is that place where you can let your hair down and just BE yourself again. Awaken to parakeet songs. Enjoy your morning coffee on the patio. Watch the lizards play. Smell fresh flowers. Walk the Paradise Path in our own nature reserve. Tarzan never tired of jungle delights and nor will you.

  • A visit to Florida’s Great Outdoors lifts the mood. Spending time in nature reduces stress and anxiety while boosting happy hormones like serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins.
  • These are the same happy hormones that pump through your veins when you fall in love. Hello, Jane!
  • The color green fills the heart with joy and makes us feel part of a greater whole. If you were to meet Swamp Yoda, he would advise: Separate We Are Not. We have acres of tropical lush greenery and trails to explore within our vacation village. You can do it in bare feet, in your swimsuit, or birthday suit within your personal and private pyramid.

Hack 4 – Disinfect the Florida Way

As we watch the world swipe and sanitize itself, a few wise elders remind us of the cleansing and healing powers of the four elements: sun, wind, rain, and earth dirt! Yes, even our sandy beaches are cleansing agents. The sun has disinfectant qualities that destroy pathogens like viruses and bacteria. To cleanse mind-body-spirit, we recommend:

  • Step 1: Swim in our outdoor lake, a naturally free-flowing, deep earth warm springs. The water contains medicinal minerals (i.e. sulfur, magnesium, selenium, and calcium) that detoxify and nourish your body’s cells.
  • Step 2: After 20 mins of mineral spring soaking, leave the pool, and allow your body to dry off naturally under the Florida sun in our ergonomic poolside loungers.
  • Step 3: Repeat, Relax, Rest, Rejuvenate. A few rounds of this each day, and you will feel better than you have in months.

Hack 5 – Sleep like an Egyptian

When it’s time to take a break from the sun or retire for the evening, we want you to know that we built our pyramids just like the ancients did. Our pyramids are light-filled, joyous spaces to spend time with your loved ones. Here’s why:

  • The pyramid energy is a special vortex current that balances the body’s chakras and meridians based on ancient mathematical principles.
  • Pyramid energy supports healthy sleep cycles and a sense of harmony based on sacred geometric design. You will feel different after a few days, more energized yet relaxed.
  • While the pyramid structure naturally cleanses your energetic field, we ensure a supply of anti-allergen linens that are washed using a technical process that guarantees purity. You can rest assured with us.
