Your Best Self – October 2014

I’m up to my ears in pumpkins, Halloween costumes, renovations, planning Thanksgiving, supporting Dr. Pollack running the marathon this weekend (don’t forget to turn your clocks back!) and overseeing the development of our exciting new website, but I can’t ring in November without saying goodbye to October with some of my favorite things to help me (and you) look and feel the best!

BEAUTY – If you haven’t yet tried Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment, they have created the ultimate blend of lipstick color and chapstick in one – sexy and elegant with the perfect amount of moisture (not too much, not too little), Fresh comes in a wide palette of colors and is available at Sephora and Fresh stores everywhere.

FASHION – We all know how much I love my high heels.  But there are times when you need to run like crazy in this city (or after your kids), and the high heels won’t cut it.  Tieks makes these gorgeous, chic foldable ballet flats – they are fashion forward and perfect for a night out or when you’re traveling – you can fold them away and tuck them in your purse and slip back into those 3-inchers when you’re ready.

FOOD – Oysters.  You either love them or hate them.  Oysters contain high levels of heart and brain boosting omega-3 fatty acids and zinc.  The Mermaid Inn, with various locations throughout the city (Upper West Side, Greenwich Village, East Village), has a happy hour from 5pm to 7pm every night, where oysters are just $1/each.

COMMUNITY – Dr. Pollack is running the NYC Marathon to benefit the American Cancer Society.  At DASHA®, we believe that enhancing your well-being extends from beyond our office doors and into the community.  Click HERE to make a donation!

CULTURE – Tomorrow evening, Trinity Church in the financial district is inviting kids of all ages to trick or treat, free of charge.  At 5:30pm, there will be a screening of the silent 1925 classic The Phantom of the Opera inside the church with spooky organ accompaniment.  Happy Halloween!  Be safe and have fun!

DASHA® – All NYC Marathon particiants with a bib can purchase a Runners Relief Package at 50% off if booked by Friday, November 7th.  Six 30-minute ART/Graston sessions at $150/each.  All sessions include a complimentary stretching.  Take care of your body and book now!  Use code DASHA®NYRR.  Call us now at 212-755-5500.
