I love yoga - but seriously?

One usually doesn’t associate a major luxury retailer like Holt Renfrew with yoga (other than potentially breathing deeply while they swipe your credit card through when you are purchasing that designer pair of boots that you totally do not need). However, a lover of all, Holt Renfrew will be carrying a brand called Beyond Yoga.

I perused through the clothing available on the website, and the prices are comparable to your local overpriced-yoga store (ie: Lululemon) (although, probably slightly more expensive overall).

If you live in Toronto, Holt Renfrew is having a GWP offer on with the purchase of $85 worth of Beyond Yoga gear between August 31st and September 18th. You can get a free week-long pass to The Yoga Studio in The Yorkville Club - more details here!

I think that I’m probably okay with the yoga gear that I’ve got (I’ve acquired quite a collection, he says), but I’ll probably check it out.

I’m not huge on Spa’s, but my skin has never reacted so badly to the crappy Canadian weather we endured this year, either. All hell broke loose on my skin and I look and feel like I’ve been through a battle. So, while I was considering going to a Spa anyway (hooray for facials!), I found that WaySpa.com is selling their gift certificates (redeemable at any spa that they have listed on their site) for 10% off! Essentially, that’s 10% off a facial for me :) 

WaySpa.com is a fabulous site, too! On top of being able to purchase gift certificates for friends and relatives afar (that they can redeem at many nearby spas), you can actually book your treatment online through them. I booked my facial with a spa near my home and they called me first thing the next morning to confirm. 

Get your 10% discount now!

OH - and it’d be a great mothers day present, too :D
