January first is just around the corner, which means that many gyms, publications, and well meaning fitness and wellness experts will exhort you to improve the quality of your life by changing your diet and fitness routines. However, while the modifications they suggest might be positive, it's highly likely that they will promote these lifestyle changes in a way that suggests that the need for change is rooted in the fact that your body, your life, that you are somehow insufficient, broken, or unworthy. Here at Chifferobe, we aim to provide paths to fitness and well-being that challenge this point of view, and move away from New Year's resolutions, and toward setting positive intentions. Thus, we are pleased and excited to announce our Winter Wellness Salon, which will present guests with a great opportunity to sample some of Chifferobe's fitness offerings as well as some local businesses who are equally committed to wellness that stems from a sense of self-worth.
Heated Kripalu yoga with Melissa Freitas (KYT-200):
This practice will make you feel great both inside and out! A fun and energizing soundtrack will fill the room as the extra warmth makes your muscles feel more supple, while adding a little extra oomph to your experience! As you stretch and strengthen your body, you'll also be cultivating a greater sense of self compassion. Kripalu yoga encourages us to observe rather than judge what we do on the mat; there's no need to compare ourselves to other people in the room, or to any ideas about how we should move or what we should look like. As we practice, we're better able to see our own beauty, competence, and worth.
Natural wellness with Flipp Apothecary:
Inspired by a variety of influences such as Buddhism, Tibetan medicine and her deep appreciation for beauty in all of its forms, Jo-Anna Cassino's mini-apothecary will acquaint salon guests with products such as essential oils, medicinal tinctures, herbs, butters, and tea blends. In addition to providing an opportunity to learn more about services such as aromatherapy and reflexology. By offering natural alternatives to products that rely on potentially harmful synthetic chemicals, Jo-Anna and Flipp connect to the salon's aim of encouraging guests to explore paths to wellness that honor and celebrate the body and the self.
DIY mini-facials with R.I. Hope Soap Company:
Contrary to what too many people believe, there is room for indulgence in your life when you're pursuing a better state of being, and the Rhode Island Hope Soap Company has just what you need to add a dose of healthy luxury into your daily routine! Founder and proprietor Aimee Sepko will lead guests through DIY mini-facials, and introduce them to her amazing line of natural bath and skincare products. With a little help from R.I. Hope Soap, you can transform your bathtub into a home-spa and experience the truth in author Anne Lamott 's words: "you can change the world with a hot bath if you sink into it from a place of knowing that you are worth profound care."
