Well, as the song says, "the weather outside is frightful"...winter has arrived, there is no doubt.Winter brings its crystal clear and cold nights, warm and dry houses because the fireplace is burning 16 hours per day, the desire to burrow under the covers and stay there till spring!!! But winter is also a great time to take care of yourself in a new and different way: learning self care and stress reduction.
As we begin the first month of our long, midwestern winter, how about making a plan that will not only take care of your body and mind, but will also start some new habits that you can take into spring ( when it is time to bring out sleeveless shirts and toeless shoes!!)
I have some thoughts: incorporate yoga or tai chi into your exercise program; add strength training to your fitness plan; give yourself a facial at the start of winter so that your skin care plan will match the dry and cold weather; learn about the benefits of mineral makeup and learn the correct way to use Bare Minerals to your best advantage; keep your feet and toes in good shape for that upcoming trip to someplace warm (even if it is the health club pool!!!); and find yourself on a massage table on a regular basis which will do wonders to offset the stresses of daily life and pressures.
Ask Santa Claus for spa gifts this year; who needs another cookbook or sweater? Give the gift of spa from Wild Clover and get a gift certificate for yourself as well (buy 125.00 worth and receive a 25.00 one for yourself or for another loved one!).
Happy Spalidays!!!

I can't think of anything better than a holiday gift certificate for a Wild Clover massage, crushed cranberry facial, and/or a pedicure after a long day shopping in downtown Galena. The spa environment is so relaxing and the staff are always so pleasant and friendly.
