In 2000, Steve Sorensen took a simple piece of wire, purchased at a hardware store, and formed the original BlenderBall wire whisk. Always entrepreneurial, he and his wife Kim saw beyond the simple ball, recognizing its potential to revolutionize the way supplements are mixed and consumed. Together, they founded the BlenderBottle Company, and worked to build it into a global fitness icon. The vision that started as a home-based business quickly evolved, and is now a team of some of the best in the world.

BlenderBottle does more than just sell bottles. They simplify and improve everyday life. They challenge the status quo with every solution they create. They refuse to produce a product that is common or ordinary. In the U.S., their team is over 150 strong. Globally, they help employ more than 1,000 people. Today, their products are in more than 60,000 retail stores and 90 countries.

Let's be honest: this past year and a half has been brutal. Relax and let your worries drift away with one free float from Float Sixty. This meditative experience will help you unwind and be present in your float session and beyond!

What is Floating? The relaxation practice of being buoyant in approximately 10 inches of water in a solution of 1,000 pounds of magnesium sulfate, otherwise known as Epsom Salts. Float 60 or 90 minutes - some like it even longer! The temperature of the water is set to the body's normal skin temperature. This practice can be accomplished in a special floatation device like a float pod, a floatation tank or a float room. Some may have heard of a sensory deprivation tank; this is the same type of device as mentioned above.

Getting rid of all sensory input allows the 'constantly-make-sure-you're-not-dying' part of your brain to chill out for a second, allowing the creative, relaxed part of your brain to come out and play. Without the constant pressure of analyzing the world around you, your body lowers its levels of cortisol, the main chemical component of stress. Your brain also releases elevated levels of dopamine and endorphins, the neurotransmitters of happiness.

Once you've floated your cares away, indulge in a delicious 90-minute massage from Amanda Gurtler, LMT at Andersonville Massage. Amanda blends a variety of modalities into a unique, detail-oriented style of massage that is both therapeutic and relaxing. Using strong but sensitive pressure, she often finds her clients dozing off, even as she works deep into their trigger points.

Since graduating from the Utah College of Massage Therapy in 2013, she has worked in clinical, neighborhood, and luxury settings. Her goal in her own practice is to facilitate relaxation and pain relief in a comfortable and safety-oriented space where boundaries are always respected. This means you will never be pressured into work you do not want to receive, offered unsolicited advice, or shamed for who you are-inside or out. Her hope is that with every massage, you begin to feel more at home in your own body.

Now that you are well and truly rested, rock a new look via a $50 gift certificate to be used for any of Aveda's salon services. Services include:

• Haircut
• Blowout & Finish
• Bang or Undercut
• Beard Trim
• Retexturizing
• Color
• Makeup
• Skin Care
• Waxing
• Nail Therapy

Located in the trendy area of Lakeview, near Boystown, within walking distance to Lincoln Park, home to DePaul University and just a few miles from the Magnificent Mile shopping district on Michigan Avenue, the Douglas J Aveda Institute in Chicago sits inside The Century Mall. To make commuting easy, their location is close to all major transportations and the city provides easily accessible parking.

Help your wardrobe make a statement with this $25 gift card, turban headband, and scrunchie from BHAV! The turban headband and scrunchie are new to BHAV's accessory line, so you will be at the front of the fashion pack.

If opening your closet is a daunting task every morning, this closet edit from Jaclyn Beattie Personal Styling is just for you.

First they'll organize your space by category and color while ensuring everything you love is accessible and seasonally relevant- this means taking away short summer dresses in the winter and taking away bulky sweaters in the summer, but keeping the pieces that you wear year-round visible. Along the way they'll donate the items you haven't worn in years and others that are showing visible signs of wear. They'll spend time pairing together outfits with what you currently own and tailor any pieces that need minor adjustments, all while making a list of what's missing.

This process can seem scary at first, but they will never get rid of sentimental pieces or anything you are on the fence about. Instead, they discover colors that pair great with your skin tone and you'll learn the silhouettes that work best with your frame.

Jaclyn Beattie is a Chicago-based wardrobe stylist with over 15 years experience in the apparel industry. After graduating with a degree in Fashion Design & Merchandising, she moved to Chicago to start her professional career. In the last 10 years, she has run multi-million dollar stores on Michigan Avenue and purchased sports apparel for Sears & Kmart (go Bills!), but it was after an introduction to personal styling that made her change focus. She saw an opportunity to expand this niche style of shopping and set out to create a company that focuses 100% on the customer and delivers the most personalized shopping experience available.

Over the course of the weeks that follow, each performer will receive feedback and guidance on how to build the roots and support system necessary to get their work in front of an audience.

Even if you're a beginner who is uncertain about where to begin, this immersive course will radically shift how you think about and present yourself - both onstage and off.
