Holiday shopping in the Denver area is building up towards its yearly holiday peak. With cold weather on the horizon and businesses scrambling to get their affair squared away before the holiday break, it seems almost impossible to find a few minutes in the day to take care of your personal wellbeing and fitness. At Firehaus Pilates, we are offering our clients and their loved ones a reprieve from seasonal stress and holly, jolly, jangled nerves.
This month we are inviting clients new and old to come in and design their own relaxing holiday retreat with us. This could look like back-to-back classes one weekend, a weekly private Pilates session, or an early morning group class every other day – whatever works best for you and allows you to make time in your schedule for good health and happiness. By scheduling a little time now before things get way overbooked in the next few weeks, you’ll be investing in a little peace of mind.
Let’s face it, we’d all like to spend time relaxing on a tropical beach or adventuring in some far flung vacation spot, but in the busy holiday season it’s impossible to find the time or the money for such an excursion. Just because you may not have the extra money for an island getaway or cruise doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to take some time away from it all. Centering yourself and getting in touch with a sense of inner calm and tranquility is always the right move and it doesn’t have to cost you a fortune. Ask our Pilates instructors about the meditative nature of Pilates and they can help you build a practice that will let you access a private, relaxing mental sanctuary any time you need it.
Many people think back on the holidays with happy nostalgia that they never seem to recapture in their adult lives. Of course, this is because when we were kids we enjoyed all the trappings of the holidays without the responsibilities and obligations that come with them. We can’t go back to being children, but we can make room in our lives for a little peace. Planning a Pilates retreat for yourself or with a partner can be a great step in that direction that won’t break your holiday budget.
No matter how or where you spend your days leading up to the holidays we hope that you’ll take some time to relax, stretch, and remember that the season was made to be enjoyed, not just endured. Happy Holidays; we hope to see you in our Pilates studio real soon!
