Self care isn’t selfish — it’s how we show up as a better version for everyone around us. A win win in my opinion.

Here are some of my favorite places to go for a self care moment in NYC:

🤍@STILLPOINTBEAUTY. — TMJ + Craniosacral (SPB1 for 15% off in Aug).
🤍@PACIFICTOUCHNYC. — Healing facials.
🤍@AIESHAABEL. — Acupuncture.
🤍@RHEMEDYBYRHED. — Lymphatic drainage.
🤍ALL SEASONS BODY WORK. — Foot massage (great for a friend date).
🤍@GLOSSLAB. — Mani + pedi.
🤍@TRISKEL.BALANCE. — Colonics.

Where are your favorite places to take a pause for yourself?

Can’t express my gratitude enough for you all and our SWS IRL event this past weekend with @lizzireyn at @beverlyhilton. It was so nice to meet so many of you (+ also see those familiar faces!) and build this incredible community in LA. We CANNOT wait to run it back AGAIN and have more LA events.  But while we’re here … WHERE ELSE IN CALIFORNIA SHOULD WE DO AN EVENT? OC? Newport? San Diego? TELL US.

WAYS I USE MY @ELMHURST1925 MILK:

🥛WITH CEREAL + BANANAS.
🥛CORTADOS/CAPPUCCINOS. — (it’s great for frothing!)
🥛OVERNIGHT OATS. — (for exact recipe check our EATS highlight)
🥛CREAMY VEGAN PASTA SAUCES. — (or any recipe where it says to add plant milk)
🥛SMOOTHIES.
🥛OATMEAL.
🥛TEA.
🥛CHIA PUDDING.

IMO the best flavors are: unsweetened cashew, walnut, almond + oat. And I love that they use only two ingredients. BUT TELL ME: how else should I use it? Need more inspo!

@FORMAPILATESLA - was it worth the hype?

I’m just gonna start by saying: ABS-OFREAKINGLUTELY.

This is by far the HARDEST, most challenging reformer pilates I have ever done. (It’s also the hardest to get IN to, so if you can get in, don’t hesitate. This studio is by referral only).  Forma is a semi-private Pilates studio. The instructors here are incredibly knowledgeable and FORM is EVERYTHING. Think small and controlled movements. Both times I went, I took class with @elizvidor - she is insanely good. Now, as you all know I’ve have taken MANY reformer classes in my life. I was… humbled. Even though I’m familiar with many poses + movements on the reformer, I experienced them in such a different way. At Forma, when you think you’re almost done with a move, you’re not even half way.  This is also a very intentional class - the person they pair you with (if you go alone) is selected with the goal of making it more challenging each time - so you’re constantly pushing your limits. The first time we used Bala bangles the entire time, and second time we used a heavy resistance band while on the reformer.

While it’s obviously pricier than your average class, to me, it’s worth every penny. I will be definitely be going back a bunch (especially for wedding prep). You won’t just leave this place with a cute selfie, you’ll be sore for DAYS. (My obliques and butt were fire mode from Sun - Weds Lol).

MIGHTY PILATES: NEW LOCATION REVIEW I checked out

MIGHTY PILATES: NEW LOCATION REVIEW

I checked out the new location (not far from the old one!) at 15th + Montana in Santa Monica last weekend. And let me tell you, this new studio is a VIBE.

It’s located on the 2nd floor (above La La Land Kind + Cafe - highly suggest you go there after!) and there’s a huge parking lot connected to the studio with free parking.

The studio has a ton of natural light flowing through … bathrooms, products, a water refill station (+ the good mints, IYKYK 😉) and a ton of options for class types: Re:Form (their signature class that I took), Jump + Core (more fast paced) & Advanced.

Re:Form is great for all levels. Whether you’re new to pilates or have taken 100 classes, this class is absolutely worth your while. I left feeling incredibly aligned. The instructor (Sherry) offered a ton of adjustments and I definitely felt the burn. Nothing crazy intensive, but the class felt good on my body.

Reminders: this is a sticky sock class, so bring yours! Class is available on Classpass. You can find many classes for #10andUnder Credits. UPDATE: masks are again required.

PRO TIP: Class fills up quick, so book it a week in advance to secure your spot. Have you checked out this new location yet?
