Candlelight Yoga Benefit for Haiti at Exhale
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 by Adam Marks
I love Exhale for their staff, top-notch spa services and amazing body-transforming classes–I always leave feeling good about myself.
But this Saturday night, Exhale’s giving all of us the opportunity to feel good about ourselves, long after we walk out the door.
Exhale is hosting a fundraiser this Saturday, Jan. 23, to raise funds to support the Haiti relief effort. Anna Argeropoulos will be teaching an inspirational music yoga flow class in their candlelit, temple-like yoga studio.
The Vinyasa-style yoga class will conclude with a short meditation and prayer for healing. No worries if you’re a newbie, all levels are welcome.
This will be a donation-only class and 100% of the proceeds will go the American Red Cross. The class runs from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. Reserve a spot by calling Exhale at 312-753-6500. Space is limited.
Be sure to check out our last post on other opportunities around Chicago to contribute to Haiti relief.

A New Way To BYOB
Posted on October 16th, 2009 by Adam Marks
Sure, Chicago has a bevy of restaurants that are BYOB, and in this economy, ”bringing your own” is starting to become more vogue. But what if you’d rather gab with the gals and well, get pampered? Perhaps you’ll be as surprised (and happy) as I was to hear that there is actually a spa destination with BYOB status. 
Arbre Nail Spa in both Old Town and River North is a full-service spa boasting a variety of nail, massage, facial and waxing services. They’re also a part of the pack that can’t let go of Sex in the City, so you’ll find two flat screen TV’s playing all your old favorite episodes.
But perhaps one of the most exciting elements is the ability to throw a BYOB party! It’s a fun alternative when celebrating an engagment, divorce, new job or anything in-between. Bring your favorite food and drink and Arbre will provide the glasses, silverware, napkins and settings for you. Why wait for the next martinis and manicures event to post? Create your own any day of the week!

And Zoe It Is
Posted on August 16th, 2009 by Adam Marks
Experience a semi-meltdown each time you’re forced to choose between the regular and organic tomatoes at the farmers market? Relax, Chicago has a USDA certified oasis to soothe your guilty green psyche. Zoetica Wellness Facility (1250 N. Lasalle Dr., 866-963-8422) recently opened, helping you feel good about saving Mother Earth.
Whether you’re looking to revive your tootsies with a foot treatment after a summer filled with sandals or analyze the damage of your street festival binge with a personalized health assessment, Zoetica is not meant to feel like a spa or doctor’s office.
Born and raised in Yugoslavia, Lillian Ostojich spent most of her life conjuring up ways to live a healthy lifestyle.
Ostojich spent nearly four years planning the three-story diggs, which incorporates organic, eco-friendly or refurbished materials in everything from the ceiling tiles, to the furniture and décor. Of course, no ordinary prods would do, so the already ambitious ostojich created her own line, ranging from an almond facial cleanser ($36), to a healing balm ($35).
Let your green fingers do the walking (or shopping) on-line. You can find Zoetica’s custom-made furniture, along with a bevy of sustainable gifts and nibbles for purchase while surfing the net in your pj’s.
