Hi all,

I've been meaning for the longest time to get back on my usual exercise regimen, but for one reason or another, it hadn't happened. I sort of needed this extra reason - something that made me get started. As fate or luck would have it, that's when I partnered with JOCKEY and EVEN Hotels for a fun staycation in Brooklyn.

I'm a big fan of the JOCKEY active wear items because of how comfortable and breathable they are - not to mention cute! It was a very pleasant revelation that I invite you guys to check out next time you're in the market for some work out clothes. Plus, I love their PJs as you can see in the image below! As for the hotel itself, EVEN hotels focuses on wellness and wellbeing, so no surprise that this what the kick I needed to get back on the exercise routine.

The weekend started off with a hot yoga session at Tangerine in Brooklyn and while I was a bit hesitant at first - it was only my second time ever doing hot yoga - I can tell you I survived and actually found it very relaxing. The instructor was amazing, bringing great energy and feedback.

After a blissful round of massages and facials, we went out for Mr. Purple for a few drinks - hey it can't just be all about wellness, can it? :). Mr. Purple is always a good time. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a pre-club drink or a lounge type of night. It also has great views for visitors.

The next day, there was no rest to enjoy, as we were back in wellness mode as we participated in a boot camp class with coach Hollis from Mile High run Club. Even though I had a sore ankle from the previous week, the special treadmills used were soft enough to alleviate any concerns I had. But I was counting the minutes at the end - I guess I'm a bit out of shape!

I'd like to thank JOCKEY & EVEN Hotels for an amazing staycation and you guys for reading!

xoxo,
