HIATUS SPA IS NOW OPEN AT HISTORIC PEARL

This is exactly what Historic Pearl needed and we’re so glad it’s now open! Lucky enough to get a sneak peek, we tested out their one hour massage, when we tell you it was relaxing we mean it. The ability to pop into a retreat in the middle of downtown is just part of the appeal. They offer a membership option, a monthly spa service for $69, and we love the idea. It’s the perfect way to commit to your own (sanity) wellness, a monthly treat to look forward to plus you get a solid discount on additional monthly services. Get the details on all spa services including the optional monthly membership here.

MEDITATION FOR SANITY

Staying sane appears to be a trend in this email. If you’re like us, you’re juggling all the things life throws at you (family, work, hobbies, etc.) and sometimes it feels like a lot to handle. So what’s the solution for taking pause, regaining composure and tackling life in the most enjoyable way possible? Meditation. The latest in wellness buzzwords, we want to tell you we’ve made it part of our daily routines but it’s proved a bit challenging. Can you relate? We know it can be extremely beneficial, we’re so plugged in to some form of tech device all day that a mental break, no tech allowed, is what every doctor is ordering. We watched this quick 2 minute video and she nailed all of our reasons why we don’t do it in the first 30 seconds. She also convinced us to make time for it – anti-aging, stress reduction and becoming less reactionary – were a few points that caught our attention. Watch this quick video, see if it shifts your perception about this free, impactful way to improve your mind, body and soul.
