When you're surrounded by colorful reef fish off the coast of Bali, biking down the side of a volcano and standing in the middle of an ancient Hindu temple, you're going to tell yourself, "This trip is the best thing I've done for my health in years." Let Bali work its magic on your body and soul. It may still be winter when you return home, but warm thoughts of Bali should get you through to the spring.

The winter blues have a way of melting away when you're biking along the lush rainforest with magical lake and volcano views or swinging in a hammock with a cool drink. Bike your way through the country's most spectacular landscapes and feel your spirits lift. Witnessing the playful antics of the mono cara blanca, Costa Rica's exuberant white-faced monkey, or watching a blue morpho butterfly glide through the forest? We think it's some of the best medicine around!

After returning from your biking trip in Thailand, your friends will inevitably comment on how good you look…how relaxed…how Zen. "Whatever you're doing, you should bottle it," they conclude. And that's what we did! Spend your days biking to remote villages on backcountry roads under the warm sun. Accept a blessing from village elders and have intriguing interactions with Buddhist monks. Indulge in delicious flavorful food—Thai food is known to offer one of the healthiest and most well-balanced diets. Bears hibernate in the winter. Don't be a bear.
