Now, the wrap-up
There's a whole lot of wrapping going on. Here are some different treatments to choose from around the Santa Clarita Valley. Happy wrapping!
It’s a wrap ... and a holiday for your skin
As a kid, I never liked playing in mud. Some decades later, I've had a change of heart. Lying on a heated bed, wrapped in mud, plastic and blankets, an eye pillow blocking out any light, I was transported from Balance Point Spa in Canyon Country to a sunny, tropical isle, complete with birds chirping and soft yet festive music in the background. My skin a-tingling, my mind empty of the usual chatter, it was ...

10 tips to de-stress for the holidays
Holidays can be one of the most stressful times of the year. We all have a picture of what our holidays should be like, but often our vision of that perfect Norman Rockwell family runs up against the relatives we really have. Or the fact that we are alone or sad on a holiday collides with the expectation that we think we should be joyful and cheery. We also have more social events to go ...
Mental focus is truly the key to your success
For the record, I started Fitness Edge Boot Camp almost five years ago. Until then, I had never found any exercise regimen that I could stick to. This program was the key for me, and when Fitness Edge Boot Camp founder Cheryl Broughton asked me to help her develop the mental focus portion of the program and teach it, I jumped at the chance.
Get smart & get out of your way
Vicky Minniss remembered seeing an advertisement of Cheryl Broughton in army pants, a white cropped tank top, and a drill instructor's hat, pointing at the camera as if she was pointing directly at her saying "I want you." The poster advertised Broughton's exercise program, Fitness Edge Boot Camp, established in the Santa Clarita Valley in 2001.
