Style Magazine: February 2020

Fortunately, there’s no passport required to reap the relaxing, romance-inducing benefits of a solid soak. Our backyard is brimming with thermal baths—and they’re the primo place to bring your beloved. Flip to this month’s Travel article on page 75 for five local places to make a splash. From an off-the-beaten-path pool that’s sans signage, and easier-to-get-to offerings that sit amid ritzy resorts, there’s bound to be one that’ll float your boat and get your heart a-fluttering. If, post-soak, your relationship is still in need of some rejuvenation, turn to our cover story, “Head Over Heels,” on page 42. It’s dedicated to dates, particularly local outings that’ll push you to step outside of your couple comfort zone and do something different. Whether it’s a first date or your five-hundreth, and whether you’re into wine or working out, there’s an activity for all. Remember, when it comes to courtship, creativity counts. Local therapists also share some words of wisdom for duos who’ve been together for decades and singles breaking back into the scene. Now that I’m a working mom, making time for my marriage (let alone myself) is a struggle some days, but this article is a good reminder of just how important date night really is. When it comes to literal hearts, we have you covered, too. In Health & Wellness (page 67), med pros spill their top tips for keeping your ticker ticking, which is essential considering heart disease is the number one cause of death for both men and women in the U.S. Not surprising, exercise is essential; in fact, the National Institutes of Health recommends at least two and a half hours of moderate activity each week (or 30 minutes, five days a week). Check out Take a Hike (page 22) for a scenic way to sneak in one of those workouts, then reward yourself with a swoon-worthy spa treatment (see page 20 for 10 we love), cold craft brew (“Beer My Valentine,” page 90), or carefully crafted confection (“For the Love of Chocolate,” page 87). As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the magazine. If there’s a particular piece of editorial you adore and find yourself flipping to every month, or another department you despise, tell me! In the meantime, grab a loved one, set a date, and make it a month—and a Valentine’s Day—to remember. Cheers!
