To Your Health

2008 Health and Wellness Guide

Relaxing, relating, and releasing are great for New Year’s and all. But that was six months ago. Mind-body, check 1, 2, 1, 2.

Get Physical
Urban Body Studios alums Peter Poulos and Jessica Lucas  just opened Intown Pilates, a cheery space for boot camps, one-on-ones, and — hold onto your mat — stretch and fusion classes set to music (500 Amsterdam Avenue, suite l5; 404-575-2333).

Rub One Out
On Monday, July 28, all metro Massage Envy locations will offer free hour-long Massage for the Cure. Book appointments starting July 21 or show up for first-come, first-serve rubdowns. All donations benefit the Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Stop and Smell the …
Take a whiff of Ambre blends, a new all-natural line of spray-anywhere essences. Our current fave: Invoke, a multinote wonder of jasmine, neroli, sandalwood, and a hint of rose (Shiami Doors, 4500 West Village Place; 770-319-6858).

Defrag Your Mental Mainframe
Every third Saturday this summer is an e-waste recycling day. Take old electronics to Grady High School and say buh-bye to elecrobulk (929 Charles Allen Drive, at the 8th Street entrance).

Take the Path Less Traveled
Lost your cooler somewhere at Piedmont Park? Traded it for a parking space at the Civic Center last weekend? The Weather Channel’s adventure cooler is a perfect tote for your next under-a-tree excursion.
