Yesterday: Stressed? Yes, I replied as I set down my empty wine glass. Today: Ommmm, walking out of my yoga pod (and I'll probably still have a glass of wine tonight but I'll be so much more zen while I do it.) I was a little hesitant at first, just like all of us these days, but Whole Body Wellness &Yoga By Melinda Janofsky is the real deal. The studio is impeccably clean and sanitized. Everyone wears a mask. Melinda is warm, welcoming, instantly calming, and her yoga know...ledge is superb - her list of certifications goes on and on, as does her loving and supportive nature. Melinda will create a class specific for your pod at any level you desire. She also offers private classes. So, take care of you, take care of your mental health and well-being and message Melinda to set up your pod. *Non-sponsored post: I'm just so zen after her class that I'm giving away free marketing.

There's still plenty of time to shop, especially if you shop local. Here's our Chester County favorites, but feel free to add to the list to support your local shops too! The gift for anyone on your list: A Taste of Olive: Our favorite is the garlic olive oil and sea salts but they have SO many unique gifts beyond olive oil. They wrap each gift for you too! I typically call ahead to put in my order so I can just pick up when ready.... Health and wellness gifts: Our favorite for massage is, hands down, Wholistic Therapeutics Massage & Bodywork. A massage from Amanda Devaney or Amanda Fleischer will change your life. We have two favorite hair salons, La Difference Salon & Day Spa (Christy is the owner and hair color phenom) and Cole Wellness Spa PA (Priscilla is the owner, fabulously French, and will style you like no other.) Home and garden: This new company is not only amazing, it is also inspiring. Kristin started Gerry’s Garage and Garden because a tragedy taught her that life is just too short to not follow your dreams. She is an inspiration and we want to buy all of her amazing crafty goods. Women's clothing boutiques: If you want to invest in a timeless piece and make her cry, go to Posh Collections and ask Tina to pick out the perfect present or visit Tish Boutique and ask Ashley to do the same. If the budget simply does not allow for it but you still want something special, visit Christine's Upscale Resale and ask for Casey. Photography: Often forgotten, but oh so important. A family photo session is the perfect gift for Grammy and Grandpa and now more than ever, we need a reminder of just how important family is by displaying our friends, family and loved ones all over our walls. I hate having my photo taken, unless it is with Megan Tidmore photography. Her talent is unmatched and you will cherish every shot. Our list is short and sweet, but please add to it in the comments and let us know why you love the shop you tag. #shoponline
