Hangover Helpers

Hangover Helpers

Have you ever been out a little too late? Maybe partied a little too hard? That next morning can be awfully rough.

W Hotel Chicago Lakeshore

W Hotel Chicago Lakeshore

A friend of mine visited Chicago for a few days of work. However, he didn’t want to miss out on some of the sights Chicago had to offer, so I offered to show him around. I stopped by his hotel to pick him up… the W Hotel Chicago Lakeshore.

But here, you can beautify your inner self as well. Here, the concept is “healing from within.”
The “spa for the spirit” is dedicated to teaching people about wellness and creating a lifestyle that suits and comforts them. …read more

Capoeira

Exercising is never easy, but it should be fun. If you’re tired of squatting and crunching, maybe you’d like to try a combination of dance and martial arts called capoeira. “Capoeira is a mixture of martial arts, dance, theatrics… It’s hard to compare with other things because it’s so unique,” says Tinte Forte, a capoeira instructor.
Soulistic Studio & Spa offers services like massage and reflexology treatments, but also provides classes in boxing, Pilates, yoga, and capoeira. The fight-like dancing was popular among African slaves who used it as a form of artistic expression as well as self-defense. Music, history, culture, …read more
