This time of year means gearing up for back-to-school + squeezing in some last-minute summer fun. But did you know that August is also National Wellness Month?
No matter what this month has in store for you, we hope you can find time to focus on your well-being. Keep reading to see our local guide to find your center.
Morning
Kick off your day by getting your blood flowing at one of many yoga classes happening around town. At 11 a.m. every Sunday until October 10, you can head to Ashland, the Henry Clay Estate for a free, outdoor flow session taught by Lissa Sims.
Head down the street to High On Art & Coffee to grab your favorite morning beverage and breakfast, browse local goods, and take a seat in its outdoor garden.
Afternoon
Ready to take your wellness up a notch? Have a professional work out those knots with a massage from one of many salons in the area. We suggest a one-two stop at the Distillery District — start with a deep tissue massage at Massage Strong, followed by a creek-side lunch from Little Fork along Town Branch Creek.
Continue your wellness adventure with a quick drive down Manchester Street, where you’ll arrive at McConnell Springs. Here, you can reconnect with nature, take a stroll on its scenic path, or participate in programs hosted by Parks & Recreation.
Evening
End the day by basking in the glow of a halotherapy session at Lexington Salt Cave. Or find peace + quiet with a warm sauna session at Revive Sauna Studio.
