New year, new decade, new promises for better days!


Along those lines, let me start 2010 with a fresh new article for Valerie's Gallery. Some ideas for ways to improve your life.

Let's start with the simple act of centering yourself through meditation. It isn't always an easy pursuit, but the proper music can certainly help.
Have I got an idea for you! My dear friend, who happens to have the same first name as I do,  is an amazing musician and composer has just released a meditation cd that is sure to get your new year off on the right foot, or chakra..

It's called Valerie Romanoff: Healing music for massage, meditation and transformation and it is just wonderful... Ahh....Now that's a great way to ease into the new year. Click here to to learn more and to purchase the CD.











Talking about chakras if you are in the Westport, Ct. area, there is a great yoga studio for you to check out.

Ann Katz runs a yoga studio and pays special attention to people who are healing from traumatic illness. ..http://www.annkatzyoga.com/

Now how about purchasing jewelry with the right Karma? Karma Kraftings is a great little jewelry company I came across on a jaunt through the wonderful holiday shops at Bryant Park The lovely woman, Suzanne, who runs the company has an amazing story. Healing from a traumatic illness herself, she left the corporate world and started making jewelry infused with her positive energy. She is delightful, and so is her jewelry.

And finally, if you are looking for a quick and needed getaway, let me tell you about  a place just 40 minutes outside of NYC. Fox Hollow Inn.













I needed to just get off the treadmill of life for a day. One day. I wanted to go to the beach, way out in the Hamptons where no one goes in December. But the ride was too long, and I needed to be back in the city
the next day.So through my googling, I found this great deal at the beautiful Inn at Fox Hollow in Woodbury, Long Island. For a special first timer mid week rate of well under $200, I was not only provided with a spacious two room suite, a kitchen, and a spa shower bathroom, but a dinner and breakfast, a free drink at the bar, and free cookies and apples by their roaring fire.














Nice. Really Nice.

Totally a find. www.theinnatfoxhollow.com

You get a 25% discount for Thursday night too!

Check all these businesses out:  Meditation CD, yoga studio, Karma Jewelry and a place to just BE.

Not a bad start to the new year, eh?


Happy and healthy my friend..Till next week...

Cheers!
