LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER Alana Snyder PUBLISHER Alana Snyder DIRECTOR OF SALES AND MARKETING John Snyder ART DIRECTOR Liz Painter EDITORIAL ASSISTANT Kyle Determan ACCOUNT MANAGER Taylor Hanson PUBLISHING COPY-EDITOR Emily Swan It's always nice to hit the restart button, and what a better time than the new year?

I'm excited about what 2018 holds, and putting together this issue inspired me to take the time to reflect and refresh.

Entrepreneur Lindsay Frankenfeld let us into her Rapid City loft and told us her journey of downsizing.

WRITERS Monica Albers Andrea Conover Tracy Kirby Morgan Matzen Kelly Nelson

Does an item or piece of furniture bring you joy?

INTERNS

No?

Yany Avelar

Peacefully let it move on and let it go. Surround yourself with only what you truly need.

CIRCULATION

Our cover story especially is important with the day-to-day hustle and constant "go, go, go" mentality. Not only is self care key to staying sane, but there are really cool ways to mix it up and relax physically and mentally, like the Escape Float Spa on our cover.

Or, truly get away from it all with serene facilities like the Akela Spa of Deadwood. After touring the Akela Garden, which has a dry sauna in a beautiful tipi, all I dream about now are jacuzzis and sitting by the fire.

And trying something new isn't just about spas and the latest trends.

We tried Skogen Kitchen in Custer, which is every foodie's dream.

Literally, stop what you're doing and drive to Custer right now.

After you finish reading this magazine, of course. Eliza Belland and Chef Joseph Raney have created one of the most unique and special restaurants in South Dakota. Suckling Pig. Need I say more?

Embrace 2018 with open arms, and make sure to be good to each other. I know I'm ready for a refresher.

ESCAPE AT AKELA SPA

BY KELLY NELSON

STEPPING INTO AKELA SPA OF DEADWOOD IS LIKE STEPPING INTO A WORLD WHERE PROBLEMS ARE FEW, AND SILENCE AND RELAXATION ARE PLENTIFUL. MANY CALL THAT HEAVEN, OTHERS MAY CALL THAT A TYPICAL EXPERIENCE AT AKELA, WHICH HAS THE MANTRA, “WHERE SERENITY IS INDIGENOUS.”

Often described as a sanctuary, Akela has called Deadwood its home since December of 2013. Owner Kimberly Rupp has been in the healthcare industry for much of her life, starting off her career as a nurse, and finally settling into a career as the owner of a spa. Rupp

describes how spa getaways should be a routine part of a healthy lifestyle.

“Massages have many health benefits, which include pain relief, improving range of motion, increasing circulation, reducing stress and anxiety, and helping the body detox to get rid of waste,” Rupp said. “Studies have shown how stress negatively impacts our health and quality of life. Because of the tranquility and peaceful environment, it’s a great place to meditate and refresh your spirit.”

Rupp drew inspiration from South Dakota’s indigenous history, and found a meaningful name they wanted

translated into the aesthetic of the spa.

“We found the Lakota phrase ‘Abla Kela,’ meaning 'calm,' and we made the word Akela from that,” Rupp said. “We had the privilege of having a Native American artist visit the spa, and he told us Akela also meant ‘welcome.’”

Noticing the lack of day spas in the tourist-attracted area, Rupp was motivated to create a space in the Black Hills that could extend a hand to those visiting by offering an option that strays away from the busy, emphasizing that vacation should be relaxing and restorative.

Akela has created a calm and welcoming atmosphere

LIFESTYLE that offers dozens of services that will suit anyone that steps foot on the spa’s intimate grounds one mile east of Deadwood. Some highlights include a full-service locker room with Kashwere robes and Oka-B slippers, a relaxation room, and lunch from The Lodge at Deadwood (if requested) that offers 11 different wines and four types of beer.

The infrared sauna is also available, which Amy Wismann of Akela says is great for relief from achy muscles and joints, to detox from a night of celebration, or to simply warm up.

When Rupp and her husband started brainstorming the aesthetic of Akela, they decided to hire consultants to

bring their vision to life. They hired Sam Marguiles, an international spa consultant, to design the peaceful space.

“At the time, Sam only took on 15 projects a year. We were fortunate to catch him in between projects in China and India,” Rupp said.

“When he was finished, Christi Cano was then hired, who was named the number-one spa consultant from the American Spa Magazine in 2014, 2015, and 2017.”

The spa doesn’t only reside inside the walls of the building, but it also exists outside in the co-ed, year-round Akela Garden, the “crown jewel” of Akela Spa. The Garden is an area that has steam rooms, a dry

sauna inside of a tipi, jacuzzis, and fire pits to further the relaxing experience.

“Many actually find [the garden] more enjoyable the colder it is,” Wismann continued, “and snow is another bonus.”

Before Akela, Rupp had visited many spas, and strived to make an experience at Akela unique and one that would fit many different needs.

“You would be pretty hard pressed to find anything like Akela Spa between Denver and Minneapolis,” Rupp said.

“We are a legitimate spa. The name ‘spa’ has been so overused that the word doesn’t justify what we really offer. It’s truly an experience and offers the relaxation that many ‘spas’ do not.”

With dozens of services and seven treatment rooms, Akela specializes in anything from pregnancy massages to facials to manicures and pedicures to even a hair “spalon.” From head to toe, expect that Akela has got what you need to center yourself in restoration of mind, body, and soul.

AKELA IS OPEN TUESDAY-SATURDAY 10 A.M. - 5 P.M. FOR MORE INFORMATION, OR TO BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENT, CALL (605) 578-1180 OR VISIT AKELASPA.COM.

A Refreshed South Dakota Symphony Orchestra

BY MORGAN MATZEN

THE SOUTH DAKOTA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA HAS BEEN IN SIOUX FALLS FOR 95 YEARS. THEY CONTINUE THEIR TRADITION OF LIVE ORCHESTRAL MUSIC BY HOSTING UNIQUE CONCERT SERIES RELEVANT TO THEIR AUDIENCE, LIKE SHOWCASING THE BROADWAY MUSICAL WICKED WITH THE SHOW WICKED DIVAS LAST OCTOBER AND MUSIC FROM ACTION MOVIES LIKE BATMAN, SUPERMAN, AND THE AVENGERS WITH GUARDIANS OF THE SYMPHONY COMING THIS MARCH. 1 8 \\\\\\\\\ J A N U A R Y

SDSO marketing director Jake Windish says after seeing a huge success with Pop Series shows featuring Star Wars and Back to the Future when he first started at the symphony three years ago, he knew they had to continue to experiment with creative themes.

This past year they had another sellout with inviting musical artist Ben Folds to play some of his hits with the symphony.

“Having that big name like Ben Folds, someone people know and can relate with because they’ve heard the music so long, it means something to these people and proves that we need to continue reaching out to this different demographic and what they are listening to,” Windish said.

Another way SDSO stays fresh is by offering reduced ticket prices for their classical concerts. Adults aged 1935 can purchase $10 tickets, and children aged 5-18 can attend classical concerts for free.

Windish said SDSO does this to make the symphony accessible to everyone.

“Sometimes you think [the symphony] is a black tie affair, and that’s absolutely not true,” Windish said. “We just want to make sure people are getting the chance to experience this incredible music that they may never have otherwise.”

Windish also said for first time symphony-goers, the ticket is completely free for their classical concerts, like the upcoming Copland & Mexico concert and matinee.

Copland & Mexico is funded through the National Endowment for the Humanities and presents the story of famous American composer Aaron Copland and how his trip to Mexico inspired his music.

Music director and maestro Delta David Gier said he’s excited for the concert series.

“I’m the son of two college professors, so this humanities thing is something that gets me excited,” Gier said.

“It’s a kind of complete immersion into the subject of Copland and Mexico, and particularly a Mexican composer Revueltas who isn’t very well known in the U.S. but is probably Mexico’s greatest composer.”

A R T S + FA S H I O N

Gier said the story is told through a lecture demonstration, live orchestral music, and a film with live accompaniment. He said it’s atypical for a symphony orchestra to put on a show this way, but it’s engaging.

“If you don’t know anything about the subject when you walk in the door, it’s all there to absorb,” Gier said. “The music is simply fantastic. It’s very exciting, a lot of it is dance-oriented music, and very rhythmical. It’s a fun concert.”

The SDSO partnered with universities like Augustana to reach out to students, and partnered with Our Lady Guadalupe Catholic Church in town to reach out to the hispanic population, Gier said.

“It’s a way to serve the community in a way that we can do, but nobody else can through this musical engagement,” he said.

Later this January is another concert, Video Games Live. This nostalgic concert experience will highlight the orchestral music in video games.

“Video games are actually all orchestra music,” Gier said. “It’s like film scores; it’s all orchestra. It’s different from concert music. For most of the people who have come to these concerts, it’s their first time experiencing live orchestra music and the power of what live orchestral music is.”

Gier said he spoke to the creator of the Video Games Live program about the theme of the show, and he said these kind of concerts are a gateway into the orchestral experience for many people.

“He talked about how experiencing live orchestral music just totally rocked his world as a kid, and he ended up going into the video game industry, so he worked on 30 of the best-selling video games ever in the last 30 or so years,” he said. “What really pleases him greatly is turning on new generations to live orchestral music through these video game concerts.”

Windish said video game music has a rich background in classical music and depth.

“It celebrates video games and introduces people who have never played video games to the medium, especially with the medium of music,” he said. “Video game music composers looked to Beethoven and Mozart for inspiration, and we see more and more of that as video games have continued.”

“THE STRENGTH OF THE PROGRAM, THE QUALITY OF THE ORCHESTRA, THE DEVOTION OF THE AUDIENCE, ALL THOSE THINGS MAKE SIOUX FALLS HOME FOR US [THE SYMPHONY].” - MAESTRO DELTA DAVID GIER, MUSIC DIRECTOR

Windish said one of his goals was to bring Video Games Live to the state. He said it’s kind of like a rock concert.

“Video Games Live is a large celebration of that, and it continues to sell out all across the country,” he said. “I am very excited and happy that finally now we are doing it, we are bringing this concert to the state and it’s going to be incredibly exciting to have.”

With all of the “fandoms,” Windish says he is excited to bring pop culture to the stage.

“The audience wants to experience these things that they love in their homes or in the movie theaters,” he said. “They want to experience them in different ways, whether it’s Harry Potter or Superman, and we’re trying to give them that opportunity to experience it in a larger scale.”

AT HOME LINDSAY FRANKENFELD

A

fter being gone for 10 years, entrepreneur Lindsay Frankenfeld moved back to Rapid City with a fresh mindset and one goal – to downsize. As fate would have it, a former Chevy auto showroom was being remodeled into modern lofts on the east side of downtown. Frankenfeld took a few tours during the process and fell in love.

“It’s just the right amount of space for me, and it’s a super fun place to live because I can walk everywhere,” she said.

The owner of 1977 Digital is just steps away from The Garage, where she offices out of, and Harriet & Oak, where she meets with clients.

With original exposed brick, wooden accents saved from mezzanine flooring during demo, and a ceiling that soars 24 feet (with a skylight), the industrial 1929 building has been transformed into the perfect place to start anew.

“I LIKE [THE SKYLIGHT] BECAUSE IT HELPS ME WAKE UP IN THE MORNING.”

HOME + LIVING

O DOWNSIZING While excited for the move, Frankenfeld found it challenging to go from a duplex to a 750-foot loft.

“I came from a place that had a garage to this,” she laughed. “But I purposely wanted to minimize, and it helped me do that.”

Frankenfeld was inspired by the book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up [The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing] by Marie Kondo.

“The book is about how if it doesn’t spark joy, it’s just taking up space,” she said. “Go through everything you own, ask if it sparks joy, and if it doesn’t, lovingly let it go. It’s something I’m always working on.”

One obvious thing that sparks joy in her life is her kayak, which is propped up in the corner of the living room and kitchen.

“My brother and I put it in the corner and tested it out, and it works,” she said.

Frankenfeld also had ideas from living in Japan for two years.

“There’s a lot of focus on being in small places,” she reminisced.

The hardest items to give away were furniture.

“One [item] was a big table I had bought with an ex-boyfriend, and I thought I needed to keep it because it was a substantial piece of furniture,” she said. “I had bought it for a different place, and it didn’t fit, and I didn’t need it. It was also emotional cleansing.”

Frankenfeld found it was most helpful to utilize shelving and to use baskets.

“It’s all about where to put stuff at,” she said.

“I KNIT, BUT I DON’T KNIT A LOT. MOSTLY I LIKE HOW THE YARN LOOKS – I FEEL LIKE IT’S COMFORTABLE."

HOME + LIVING

ONE OF FRANKENFELD’S FAVORITE FEATURES IS THE FARMHOUSE SINK.

“I JUST LOVE THAT I HAVE MODERN APPLIANCES. A LOT OF PLACES I LIVED DIDN’T EVEN HAVE A GARBAGE DISPOSAL.”

O LOFT LIVING A lot of tricks can be learned living in a loft.

Frankenfeld uses mirrors to visually open the space more, and to add personality to the concrete floors, she purchased over eight rugs and runners.

“I was worried at how homey [the loft] could be, so I got more rugs than was probably necessary, but I found ways to use them,” she laughed. “I love a good rug, and it’s a nice way to decorate a concrete floor.”

Frankenfeld recently started hosting for Airbnb, which she says encourages her to keep it in tip-top shape for guests.

“I travel sometimes, and it’s been really cool to open my home to people,” she said.

“Everyone has been so nice, and it makes me try harder to make it look nice and to share the space.”

O PERSONAL PIECES Many pieces around Frankenfeld’s home have a special meaning or story behind them. Leading down the narrow hallway are shelves of memories from family and from her stint in Japan. The first shelf is a hand-me-down from her late grandmother.

“It’s kind of scratched, but I love how it’s rounded,” she said. “The year my grandma died, she gave me [the shelf].”

The Egyptian cat statue is from her grandmother as well. “It kind of looks like an Emmy or an Oscar,” Frankenfeld laughed.

An antique jewelry box is from a class she taught in Japan that was given to her as a gift, and a watercolor painting that hangs near was also a present from the school.

“This is a painting that my office gave me of Hakodate, where I was living, when I left,” she said. “Gifts are huge in Japan, and they had a ceremony for me. It really helped me make the transition back home.”

Another special memory is a sign that hangs on the wooden beam in the kitchen that faces the front door. The sign reads, “Love one another,” and was her grandmother’s.

“When we went through and they asked what I wanted from their estate, I pointed instantly and said, ‘That,’” she recalled. “I just remember that being in their house and my dad and his brothers were all loud having a great time around it. My dad and all of his brothers demonstrate that.”

FRANKENFELD HAS A MEDAL FOR RUNNING A RACE FOR HER SCHOOL DISTRICT IN JAPAN.

O MIX-N-MATCH Because so many items are antiques, a lot of Frankenfeld’s loft is a mix-and-match of furniture and décor.

“It’s all from different places. The bed set was from my grandma’s estate,” she said.

“I have this mix of antiques and heirlooms and modern items from places like Furniture Row.” She also has a bookshelf from a her mother’s cousin, who passed away.

“Because I live here where both sides of my family are from, I’ve inherited some items,” she explained.

Other pieces that play off the antique look are the lamps and curtains from Target, and the coffee table, bar stools, and couches from Furniture Row. “They have this recycled furniture line, so I got the coffee table and my benches from there,” she said.

O ART Another eclectic charm about Frankenfeld’s loft is the array of artwork.

One of her favorite pieces is above her blue couch that is a framed print she received from her grandma.

“I don’t even know what it is,” she smiled. “It’s from my grandma and was in my grandma and grandpa’s house. I just love the colors in it.”

Nearby are eight framed prints of birds that Frankenfeld says she found at a flea market on a trip to Detroit with a friend.

“I bought around 30 prints of birds, and it was my friend’s idea to put them up in my apartment,” she said.

“It was $30 for all of the prints, and I spent a lot more money to get them framed.”

Next to the bookshelf in the living room is a print or painting of a city block. When asked where it came from, Frankenfeld responded, “Do you know who James Franco is?”

Frankenfeld’s parents lived in Boston and in Los Angeles before they had children. Her father attended graduate school in Boston and lived next door to Betsy and Doug Franco, the parents of the Hollywood actor.

“They had a duplex next to them and they became good friends,” she said.

“When they would go out of town, my parents would watch their cats, so they gave them this as a thank you.”

O USING CREATIVITY TO DOWNSIZE AND MAKE THE SPACE HER OWN, FRANKENFELD IS EXCITED ABOUT THE CHANGES AND WHAT IS GOING ON IN HER THRIVING AREA OF TOWN. “THERE’S MORE AND MORE HAPPENING DOWNTOWN, ESPECIALLY IN THIS AREA EAST OF 5TH,” SHE SAID. “I THINK THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE MOVING DOWNTOWN.” FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT LINDSAYFRANKENFELD.COM.

A Rocky TREND

BY MONICA ALBERS

“SOME PEOPLE DO SOME REALLY FUNNY ONES; OTHER PEOPLE WILL WRITE POSSIBLY A VERSE FROM THE BIBLE OR JUST A FEW SIMPLE WORDS LIKE ‘BE KIND.’” — ALLISON ATEN

SOUTH DAKOTA ROCKS, A PROJECT THAT’S SPREAD KINDNESS ACROSS THE STATE, THE COUNTRY, AND EVEN THE WORLD, BEGAN WITH A SINGLE SMILE.

The first rock was simple: a brightly colored flower painted across a stone.

Fifth-grader Scarlett Tefft and her mom Allison Aten discovered it while visiting DeLand, Fla. last winter. The rock was one of many decorated and spread around the area. Allison says it was Scarlett’s idea to share the project with the Midwest.

“Sometimes in South Dakota, there’s not that many things going on that make people smile, and in the summertime, when we had nothing to do, we could just paint some rocks,” Scarlett said. “When people find them, it makes them smile, and it’s really fun to do it with friends.”

Aten says there aren’t really any rules when it comes to the project – just paint a design or a kind word on any rock with the hashtag #605Rocks, and leave it somewhere for a passerby to discover. If you find a rock, you’re encouraged to take a photo of it and post it on Facebook, hold onto it, or re-hide it yourself.

“It’s been really fun,” Aten said. “A lot of times the girls would hide them and sit off to the side and watch people walk by them… some people wouldn’t even notice them, other people would actually pick them up and look at them and put them back down, sometimes people would take them.”

Scarlett agreed. “It’s fun to hide them in spots and parks where people will be happy to find them in.”

Aten says they started painting rocks last January, but it really took off over the summer when Scarlett and her friends spent time decorating over summer break. The Facebook page now has nearly 2,000 likes and it has spread to elementary schools across the state. Satellite projects have also popped up like #RapidCityRocks and #SiouxFallsRocks to share more locally.

“We did not really expect it to take off the way it did, they’re all elementary school students and don’t really have social media,” Aten said. So Mom runs the Facebook page and

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 3 0 \\\\\\\\\ J A N U A R Y

C U LT U R E + E N T E R TA I N M E N T

helps organize events at youth groups and happenings like Family Fest in Sioux Falls.

Aten says the rocks are journeying to a growing number of places – from New York to Denver, Chicago to Kansas City. The project even made it to another continent, when a traveler brought one to Egypt from Rapid City. Their #605Rocks post includes the little stone being displayed by an Egyptian tour guide with the Great Pyramids of Giza in the background.

Following the hashtag, you’ll find posted stories of the little rocks that have cheered people up on rough days – discovered after the loss of a job or pet or during health challenges. Kids at birthday parties and co-workers at office parties spend an afternoon painting rocks to share around the state. Strangers connect online as a person who finds a rock discovers the person who painted it for them.

Scarlett says that’s the best part.

“My favorite part about doing this, is that when people find the rocks, they can post a picture, and it always makes them smile, and it makes us smile, too.”

Aten says it’s meant a lot to her to watch the kids take up the project. “This was their first opportunity to take ownership of something and be proud of it.

And I think they got into the excitement and started to see the positive impact it had on people, and it kind of fueled them to want to do more.”

And as a mom, it’s been particularly sweet.

“As a mom, it was really special to sit back and watch, and to watch it grow and watch the support they got from everybody in the community and are continuing to get,” she said. “It shows them that it’s not always about receiving... it’s about giving.”

FOR AN ATTRACTION O DAKOTA DISCOVERY MUSEUM 1300 MCGOVERN AVE.

The Dakota Discovery Museum was originally founded in 1939 by Leland Case, who was inspired by a museum he visited in Sweden.

“He wanted to duplicate that example here; that’s why [the museum] was founded,” manager Roderick “Rod” Brown said. “It was originally called Friends of the Middle Boarder Museum of Pioneer Life.”

The “Middle Boarder” refers to the Missouri River, where, according to Brown, farmers, shopkeepers, miners, and cattlemen were moving west to east and met in what is now “Dakota Territory.”

STRESS RELIEF MUSCLE RECOVERY SOOTHE ANXIETY MANAGE DEPRESSION ENHANCE MENTAL CLARITY CHRONIC PAIN RELIEF

There are five galleries in the building that walk you through different discoveries. The Dakotas History Gallery is immersed with history of the Middle Border Region (North Dakota, South Dakota, and parts of adjoining states).

Visitors learn more about lives on the Plains Indians, the Fur Trade, Dakota Territory, Railroading, Farming and Ranching, and the 1930’s Great Depression.

Artists galleries kick off with the Leland and Josephine Case Art Gallery, which specializes in various artists from the Great Plains. The Hargen’s Gallery has one of America’s premiere illustrators of Western storytelling, Charles Hargens Jr., and has an authentic recreation of his studio. This leads to the Howe Gallery, which explores the life and creative genius of one of South Dakota’s greatest artists, Oscar Howe, who also is the original Corn Palace mural designer.

Journey outside of the museum to the Historic Village that features an expanded railroad history of local rail operations of the Milwaukee Railroad in the Dimock Depot. The Farewell Church is an early 20th century example of country worship. Walk inside the Sheldon School, which illustrates education during the homesteading era of the Great Plains. Last, but not least in the village, is the Beckwith House, which is home to co-founder of the Corn Palace, Louis Beckwith. While the interiors of these outdoor spaces are closed during winter, they are open during tourist season.

210 S. MAIN ST.

Grab a drink or dine at the “oldest depot of the Chicago Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad.” The Depot’s building was built in 1908, and was used for over 40 years for passengers and freight. After sitting empty for many years, it was renovated in 1990, and is now registered as a historical site.

The American cuisine menu doesn’t hesitate to play into their theme with items like the Depot Dinner Steak, the Train Wreck Basket (onion rings, mozzarella sticks, southwest bites, cheese balls, chicken strips, and french fries), and the Caboose Burger.

Other items include pub fare, like wings, quesadillas, burgers, and sandwiches.

Unique highlights are the South Dakota Ground Buffalo Steak and the Raspberry Popper Burger.

“All of our food is homemade,” owner and general manager John Foster said.

Foster also explained that their website and Facebook are constantly updated with daily and weekly specials, which are a can’t-miss.

Happy hour is daily 4:30-7:30 p.m., and is 4:30 p.m. to close Wednesday and Thursday.

Scroll their selection of 30 beers, which include local options like Fernson Brewing Company and Firehouse Brewing Company on the app Untappd.

FOR A TREAT O JESSE’S CANDY CLOUDS 603 N. MAIN ST.

What started as a gag gift is now a business – Jesse’s Candy Clouds.

“I always loved cotton candy, and my parents bought me a cotton candy machine one Christmas to be funny,” Jesse Taylor said.

After graduating from Dakota Wesleyan University this past May, Taylor opened the seasonal business with co-owner Edward Clark.

Mitchell’s first cotton candy shop is open during tourist season, but also takes orders off-season via social media. Taylor stresses they respond to messages quickly, and offer specialty items throughout the year, like Sticky Spider Webs this past October and Ready-to-Go Hot Chocolate Kits in December.

What they’re truly known for are their 15 available flavors, including Sassy Apple, Banana, Piña Colada, and Birthday Cake.

Try all of them at once with their famous Rainbow Bag. The best part? Guests can see their treats being made in the cozy space across from the Corn Palace.

“You can come in, choose between flavors, and watch the cotton candy be made right in front of you with our machines,” Taylor said.

Not in the mood for cotton candy? Try their Popcorn Balls and choose from original, caramel, or honey.

Jesse’s Candy Clouds can also be hired for birthday parties, wedding receptions, proms, graduations, fundraisers, and more.

The Year of

Self Care B Y A N D R E A C O N O V E R // P H O T O S B Y L I Z P A I N T E R & J O H N S N Y D E R

JUST LIKE THAT, ANOTHER HOLIDAY SEASON HAS PASSED. December brims with celebration and festivities, drawn out between the shopping, the company parties, and family gatherings.

Then suddenly, a day passes, and we’re thrust into 2018.

Whether we acknowledge it or not, stress, exhaustion, and complacency are often bubbling below the surface during these

busy times. When the calendar finally flips to a new page, most, if not all of us, are in danger of boiling over.

Cue the New Year’s resolutions, diets, and gym memberships. There’s an innate urge to start over, to move into the New Year with a clean slate.

But what happens when a new workout regimen isn’t enough to kick-start our lives? More often than not, what we’re craving is wellness for both our bodies and our minds.

Different practices targeting stress relief and mindfulness are rapidly gaining popularity across the country, and our state is no different.

If you’re ready to commit to managing stress and its effects on your life, it may be time to pursue a new path toward wellness.

We checked out three of South Dakota’s most unique facilities for self care and the benefits for taking the time to reset.

41

Sioux Falls

Cryo

It’s understandable, then, that the idea of cryotherapy - literally “cold therapy” might not immediately appeal to the Midwestern mindset.

At Sioux Falls Cryo, one of the only full-body cryotherapy providers in Sioux Falls, the subzero temperatures are brought indoors.

Owner Susan Meier moved from Indiana to the area with her husband, leaving a job in the real estate industry behind.

When the couple was first introduced to cryotherapy through their daughter, they thought it sounded hokey, admits Meier.

“After doing some reading and finally trying it out, it started to make sense,” she said. “We realized we need this in Sioux Falls.”

Meier had always wanted to run

42

her own business. After discovering the benefits of cryotherapy and experiencing the supportive business community in Sioux Falls, she realized it was time.

The business has been open for just over two months, at a convenient location on Marion Road as part of Lake Lorraine.

A cryotherapy session is three minutes long and involves standing in a nitrogen tank at one of three temperature levels: -133 degrees Fahrenheit, -166 degrees Fahrenheit, and -184 degrees Fahrenheit.

One of the most common questions Meier gets is about safety.

“It’s extremely safe,” she said. Only those with blood circulation issues or women who are pregnant should avoid the therapy.

During the session, the participant’s head is completely exposed at the top of the tank, and someone from the Sioux Falls Cryo team is standing by to keep the machine running.

The sessions aren’t painful, as nitrogen produces a dry cold. Participants are

encouraged to start at Level One, but can expect nothing more than a prickly sensation.

Cryotherapy has three primary targets: athletes, pain management, and beauty and fitness.

“It’s a great thing to add, especially if someone’s starting a new workout routine,” Meier said. A typical session burns 600-800 calories, and reduces inflammation in the muscles.

For those seeking benefits of beauty, fitness and stress management, cryotherapy offers collagen production, tightening of the skin, and an energy boost.

Cryotherapy can be done as often as twice a day, but two to three times per week is a good rule of thumb for those starting out.

“The more you do it, the longer the effects will last,” Meier said. “People leave their sessions feeling like a different person.”

As South Dakotans, we tend to view the cold as a necessary evil. We plan our vacations around sunshine, take vitamin D supplements during the winter months, and pile on layers whenever we have to go outside.

3to tryTHINGS at SIOUX FALLS CRYO

FULL BODY CRYOTHERAPY Three minute sessions start at $25, and can be enjoyed at three different temperature levels. The benefits range from pain management, fitness supplementation, beauty, and reducing signs of aging.

LOCAL CRYOTHERAPY & CRYOFACIALS Local cryotherapy, including facials, is one of Sioux Falls Cryo’s newest offerings, and is likely to become one of the most popular options.

If you’re not ready to dive in fully, targeting pain and inflammation locally is a great starting point.

COMPRESSION THERAPY Popular with athletes, Sioux Falls Cryo also offers Normatec Recovery Therapy, to aid muscle recovery, increase circulation, and improve flexibility.

RIGHT FOR YOU?

YODER RECOMMENDS THESE THREE TIPS WHEN YOU’RE DEVELOPING A WELLNESS ROUTINE.

START WITH THE BREATH Your breath is the most elemental part of any wellness practice. Finding and controlling it is the one underlying principle that everything returns to.

WHATEVER YOU TRY, GIVE IT A FAIR CHANCE No matter what type of event you’re attending, whether a meditation or a fitness class, don’t make a judgment call after the first session. You need to give your practice at least four to six tries before deciding if it will work for you.

EXPLORE YOUR OPTIONS Avera’s Singing Bowl sessions are posted online, but Yoder practices at other Sioux Falls venues as well. Take time to discover the wellness opportunities Sioux Falls provides.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Is sound therapy

You’ve heard of yoga, tai chi, and perhaps even quigong.

These ancient practices promoting relaxation, meditation, and spiritual centering date back thousands of years, but their immense wellness benefits are only recently becoming more widely known and accepted.

In fact, despite years of research that shows otherwise, few medical professionals are willing to recognize the benefits associated with these forms of therapy.

However, a list of available activities at the Avera McKennan Fitness Center on Southeastern Avenue tells a different story.

At 7:15 p.m. on Thursdays throughout January, certified sound therapist Deb Yoder leads a “stress less” Singing Bowls class.

The sessions are open to the public at a cost of $5 for members and $10 for non-members.

The classes focus on yogic breathing and guided meditation, with one distinction: singing bowls.

Perhaps you’ve seen (or heard) them - beautiful metal bowls that originate from Asian countries. Stroke them with a mallet, and they emit a stunning reverberation. Higher pitches command attention, while deeper tones relax the mind.

Yoder and her colleague, Glenda Baker, are trained in the art of singing bowl therapy.

After hearing about the practice at a women and spirituality conference, Yoder brought the idea back to Sioux Falls.

“I was fascinated, and I thought ‘We need to do this,’” she said.

Now she offers singing bowl meditations and yoga sessions all over Sioux Falls - from Avera to the Butterfly House to the Avera Prince of Peace rehab center, and the downtown cupcake shop, Half Baked.

strategically on each of the body’s chakras, can do wonders for pain and healing.

“The combination of vibrations and sounds tells your brain waves how to react and regulate the vibrations of your body,” Baker said. “We’re constantly fighting the vibration of the earth.”

Both Yoder and Baker are firm believers in finding the right wellness methods for your own body and mind. For some, a singing bowl meditation or massage may be ideal, while others can benefit more from an activity like tai chi or yoga.

Check out the tips in the side bar to determine if sound therapy (or a different wellness method) is right for you.

Escape

Float Spa For most people, the answer is probably never.

In a world dominated by notifications and updates, the ability to sit down and focus on one thing is all but extinct.

After hearing about float therapy on a podcast back in 2014, Sioux Falls native Korey Kyle was intrigued by its potential to soothe distracted minds and reduce stress.

He spent some time exploring the concept and researching the positive effects of eliminating stimuli.

After being convinced, Kyle moved quickly to open up a float spa of his own. When he opened Escape with his partner, Wes Geier, it was the first spa of its kind in the state of South Dakota.

Today, there are multiple spas across the state, from Sioux Falls to Rapid City to Mitchell to Chamberlain.

If you’re unfamiliar with float therapy, it’s about as simple as it sounds. The participant enters a float pod filled with water and high levels of Epsom salts, providing a feeling of weightlessness.

Within the pod, the participant can choose between colored lights or complete darkness. Soothing music is also available to help calm the mind.

46

Participants are in no danger, either from drowning or claustrophobia. The high level of salt keeps the participant afloat, and the pod can remain open at all times.

“There’s no issue [with claustrophobia] because you’re completely in control,” said Kyle. “The hydraulic lid opens with just a tap of a finger.”

Each session lasts 60 minutes, but can be scheduled for longer if the participant desires. Kyle says the prescribed amount of time is typically an hour and a half, as it takes the brain an average of 45 minutes to fully relax.

Floating minimizes all distractions and stimuli, resulting in a rebalancing of the brain and reduced cortisol levels.

The benefits are numerous, from stress relief and clearing the mind, to pain management, and even beauty. Pregnant women find particular relief from the weightlessness that floating brings, and the high amounts of magnesium in the water work to detoxify the skin.

Kyle stresses the importance of multiple floats. “You won’t fully understand the mental benefits until you’ve had multiple experiences,” he said. “It’s a practice.”

KOOL BEANS

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

LOCAL COFFEE GURU KURT OSBORNE HAS RECENTLY TAKEN HIS HOBBY TO MAIN STREET IN BROOKINGS WITH THE OPENING OF HIS COFFEE SHOP, KOOL BEANS. FROM COLD BREW THAT IS COMPARABLE TO GUINNESS, TAP AND ALL, TO COFFEE CHEESE PRODUCED BY SDSU DAIRY, KOOL BEANS BRINGS A UNIQUE TWIST TO COFFEE LOVERS IN THE COMMUNITY. 4 8 \\\\\\\\\ J A N U A R Y

Starting with an old air popper in his garage, Osborne was a curious man with a penchant for all things coffee. Finding success, he began taking his home-roasted coffee to work and sharing it with friends, creating a literal buzz for more. Making his way through a series of home roasters, Osborne’s hobby quickly turned into a full-time career.

“Coffee was a big part of our family while growing up,” Osborne recollected. “I especially remember the church basement and grandparents and everyone gathering around coffee. In the Lutheran world, it is sometimes considered the third sacrament.”

Osborne took his love of roasting from the garage to the local farmer’s market, spe-

cializing in cold brew coffee with vanilla or chocolate almond milk. From there, the popularity of such novelties led them to opening Kool Beans.

“Since our cold brew had gone over so well, we knew we wanted to have a cold brew tap. Nitro is one of the newer variations of a product in the coffee world, and at the time of opening, I don’t think there was anyone in Brookings that offered that,” he said. “We serve it in a crystal stout glass, so the presentation resembles a heart Guinness.”

The cold brew presentation isn’t the only aesthetically pleasing detail in the coffee shop.

“All the tables and the bar are made out of up-scaled or recycled products, and all of our cold and hot cups are compostable,” Osborne said.

Osborne says that having recycled materials was important to them, as well as giving back whenever they can. Kool Beans has recently partnered with various companies and programs, including Brookings County Youth Mentoring Program and Betos, a company out of Nicaragua.

“Betos is an organization that employs a lot of folks down there, and they make a lot of burlap and leather products,” he said. “They also make a lot of products out of coffee trees, like lamps and coasters. We

are actually the only place north of Texas to sell their products, so that’s special.”

Blessed with perfect timing and the ideal location, Osborne and his team have had the opportunity to expand from just coffee and espresso.

“We have developed three types of coffee cheese.

As an homage to our Swedish heritage, we have created the perfect afternoon snack, with flavors like Chedda Buzz, Smokey Joe, and Rokt Vit,” Osborne said. “We have combined fresh cheese with our freshly roasted coffee beans. It sets us aside and offers something new.”

From giving back to the local community to experimenting with coffee, Osborne has set the tone for a warm and inviting space for students and locals alike.

“We love roasting coffee, but it is even more important for us to give back,” he continued, “especially here in Brookings.”

We entered and were greeted by general manager Eliza Belland at the front. The atmosphere vibes were felt instantly when we were seated next to a party of five cozied up in the corner. They were all splitting a bottle of wine with smiles stretched across their faces and laughter escaping their lips. An adorable couple also had glasses of wine on

our other side and were trying dish after dish on what appeared to be date night.

After looking it up after hearing so much about Skogen Kitchen, I read it was a chef-driven concept by couple and work duo Belland and Chef Joseph Raney. The couple met in Southern California and have an extensive history in the restaurant industry. They named it Skogen as an homage to their heritage and surroundings, as it means “the forest” in Norwegian.

As we looked around, we loved that all servers wore denim aprons. We then noticed the bar stools facing the kitchen were draped with lamb skin. And just then our menus were brought to us on an assortment of clipboards. The attention to detail was already noticed before the meal began.

HAMACHI

Our charming server read off the specials for the evening. The first special soon hit our table: Wellfleet Oysters. Now, I’m not sure if you recall from the October review of Jambonz Deux, but my tablemate and I are leery of oysters.

They are very hit and miss, and we are “texture people” (trust me, I rolled my eyes at myself when I wrote that). These beauties were from Provincetown, Mass.

We counted to three like children and shot the first oyster. It slipped smoothly into our mouths, and we tasted the green apple mignonette.

The flavors literally rolled off of

5 4 \\\\\\\\\ J A N U A R Y

our tongues. Our server informed us the other flavor was fermented balsamic. Fennel topped off the kickoff to a foodie journey.

First plate cleared (in both ways from the oysters being devoured to the actual plate), and the second plate hit the table. It was also a special: Hamachi (yellowtail from Japan). This was served with grapefruit, yuzu kosho buttermilk sauce, black garlic puree, and dill. My tablemate’s eyes showed terror, but she never actually said anything, and took her first bite. We both kept getting food goosebumps. The garlic is from another world, and I want to live there. All of the different flavors had the perfect balance. Her eyes soon changed to devotion.

The third meal was another exhibit of how, though it’s an homage to their Norwegian heritage, they offer dishes from other cultures as well. Piquillo Peppers were served with pine nuts, goat cheese, golden raisins, balsamic pearls, and local honey. Again, they were a lot of ingredients I would never normally eat together.

Balsamic pearls. Those two words have changed my life. The chef makes them in-house, and not only do they taste good, but the presentation is a feast for the eyes.

Per usual, goat cheese and pine nuts were heaven as a combo, and the honey added sweetness. I liked that the raisins added a soft crunch.

O SKOGEN KITCHEN CONT. SALTED CARAMEL PUDDING

Moving on to the last meal, I actually feel genuine sadness as I write about it. Our fourth, and final dinner plate, was the Suckling Pig. This was served with torched balsamic, butternut squash, and shaved green apple.

“I’m welting up. I think I’m going to cry,” my tablemate said, her eyes watering.

The server tried to comfort our food feelings and told us the chef puts the skin on top of the

dish and bakes it on top, giving it a crispy perfection. He also creates his own torched balsamic meringue. Warning: Do not get greedy like I did and dip into the meringue too fast. I was so sad when it was gone, as it completed the symphony of flavors.

As I explained to the server (who didn’t ask), that I will dream of this dish, it was time for dessert.

Dessert one: Double Chocolate Tart. This was paired with

lingonberries and whipped cream.

It was a fun surprise to find the whipped cream had a hint of lemon in it, which switched up bites in a fun way. Second was the Salted Caramel Pudding with whipped cream and toffee crumble. It was a salty delight and would have vanished if we hadn’t feasted like it was our last meal.

This place felt like we had found out about a secret. The best secret.

GETTING PERSONAL

General manager and front of house Eliza Belland treats you as if you’re in her home and kitchen. Belland will stop by each table to get to know guests and to help answer any questions or details on the drinks and cuisine. She described it best when she stopped by our table: “We just want to take people on an adventure, and everyone wants to have fun with food.”

O BOTTOM LINE: The quaint eatery offers fresh, local, and innovative options for breakfast, brunch, and dinner.

This meal will go down in one of the top 10 restaurant experiences in my life. Whether it’s a date, an evening or brunch with friends, or to indulge by yourself, you will regret it if you don’t go. See. Now I’m that person telling anyone I can find to go. And now I see why.

Everything was so well thought out.

The denim aprons, the cow stools, the lambskin draped over the kitchen bar, the clipboard menus, and the artwork were intentional. The best part? Belland and Raney’s personal touch by visiting with guests and making them part of the family. This is another prime example of keeping the venue small and hitting it out of the park with what you do best with every seat taken. I would recommend calling for a reservation to ensure you have a spot.

1-2 C Diced Cooked corned beef 4 Eggs

DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In large skillet, melt butter. Add onion, cabbage, and garlic.

Cook, stirring frequently until vegetables are crisp and tender, or for about 5-7 minutes.

Add water, cover, and cook for 5 minutes.

Remove cover and cook until liquid is out of the cabbage, or it will come out when the quiche bakes, making it watery.

Stir in corned beef.

Remove pan from heat and cool for 15 minutes.

In medium bowl, combine eggs, light cream, flour, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper, and whisk until blended.

Spread half of cabbage mixture in pie crust.

Top with half of Swiss cheese, and repeat layers. Slowly pour the egg mixture over ingredients in pie crust and sprinkle in Parmesan cheese.

Bake 30-40 minutes or until quiche is puffed and golden-brown in spots. Cool 5 minutes, then slice and serve.

THE SLED HAUS

Taking Ownership in Lead

BY KYLE DETERMAN

N

EW YORK NATIVES AND LOVERS OF BANGUP BREWS, BETH AND MICKEY STAECKELER ARE BRINGING UNIQUE FLAVORS TO LEAD VIA THEIR RESTAURANT, THE SLED HAUS. NEWLYWEDS WITH A BRAND NEW LOCATION ON GLENDALE AVENUE (HIGHWAY 85), THE COUPLE ARE IMPRESSING THE LOCAL SCENE WITH NEW YORK BURGERS, BEER RIMS STRAIGHT FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD, AND ONE OF THE LARGEST (IF NOT THE LARGEST) CHALK BOARD ON THAT SIDE OF THE STATE. 6 2 \\\\\\\\\ J A N U A R Y

With two other locations under their belt, Beth and Mickey are finally feeling like locals. Due to the temporary feeling of the other locations, they say they felt as though some people questioned their desire to stick around.

“People really loved our old location because of the industrial-chic feel, but we didn’t own it,” Beth continued, “and we wanted to feel a sense of complete ownership. Now that we own the land and the building, they can say we are here to stay. [Locals] feel more confident in supporting us knowing that we invested in the community they grew up in.”

Now completely immersed in Lead, it wasn’t long ago that they lived near New York.

Fans of the Sturgis Rally, Mickey made his way out to the Black Hills in the summer of 2005 and instantly fell in love. By the time Beth came into the picture, South Dakota was on the forefront of his mind.

“It didn’t take long for me to see that South Dakota was his life,” Beth said. “In 2013, we started talking about moving, and finally made the move in 2014.”

The Staeckeler’s knew they had struck gold when they saw the scenery Lead had

to offer, which also brought along season upon season of customers. Events like Kool Deadwood Nights are big for them, but tourism in general is huge for the business.

“Summer tourism is actually just as busy as winter tourism, to be honest,” Beth explained.

“It’s a lot of people that are traveling through with their families, hiking, and seeing attractions.”

When asked about prime Sled Haus time, Beth had no hesitations.

“The winter crowd is the best, because they are here to play. They’re always in a good mood, constantly drinking and eating after days full of snowmobiling and skiing,” she said. “It’s definitely our favorite time of the year.”

Moving right on to their menu, it’s impossible to ignore their specialty, craft, and imported German beers, and especially their infamous beer rims. While most people expect salt on their margaritas, Sled Haus has a way of taking their customers by surprise when presenting rims like their bacon-rimmed porter. Beth and Mickey both love the uniqueness of their drink delivery, especially when it comes to their infinite variety.

“With a lot of our Ambers, we will do a plain cinnamon-sugar-secret ingredient rim,” she said. “This year, I wanted to up that rim a bit, so I added a giant toasted marshmallow that we roast on the glass itself.”

It gets even more creative during the winter season.

Beth continued, “Winter also brings the dark porters and stouts, which we combine with our homemade frosting. We’ll dip the rim in frosting, then the cinnamon-sugar mixture, frosting again, and then you can pick from different cereals to top it off.”

The Sled Haus doesn’t stop at their ales. In fact, they have an extensive menu full of gourmet burgers and sandwiches, as well as a German Corner on their menu that includes items like the Bratwurst Platter and German Home Fries.

“I love our German Corner of the menu, especially because everything on there is imported straight from Germany,” Beth said.

“We make all our sauces and meats, we have no cans, no boxes, and we really pride ourselves in that.”

One of

Those Days

BY TRACY KIRBY CRISTA BALLARD PHOTOGRAPHY There are days where you really feel like you’re owning life. Those days where you’re just checking things off a list, loving others well, getting up immediately when your alarm goes off, not yelling at your kids, wearing matching socks, arriving only five minutes late to any given appointment, and generally playing a pretty dang good part in the human race.

There are definitely those days.

Then, also, there are days where your teeth fall out.

Not a metaphor. Actual days when your teeth actually fall out. And no, I’m not talking about the school-age/tooth fairy kind of era when it’s normal for your teeth to fall out. Nor am I talking about when you’re advanced in both age and wisdom, and it is socially acceptable for your teeth to fall out. Rather, I’m talking about when you’re cruising around town in your mid-30’s, feeling like you’ve still got it and … BOOM. Out topples your front tooth without warning.

Yes, there are also those days.

I have to admit, I’ve been noticing that I’ve been having a greater quantity of the tooth-falling-out kind of days than the I’m-owning-life kind of days. And, if I’m really honest with myself, I don’t even think I can blame it on the fact that I have young kids, or that I just have bad luck, or bad genes. I’ve come to the conclusion that I can simply chalk it all up to a little something called... life.

The day my tooth fell out (perhaps a title of a future book? A memoir of sorts?), I was running around town for my daughter’s chosen extracurricular activity. It was a Saturday morning, and windy as the sky is blue. We had just left my daughter’s event, and I was rushing over to pick up my son, who was being lovingly looked after by my mother-in-law as my dearest husband was away on a hunting adventure. On the way over, we stopped to get a snack, and as I took the first bite… crunch. Searing pain. My front tooth (of course it had to be my front tooth) gave way and simply

I’VE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT I CAN SIMPLY CHALK IT ALL UP TO A LITTLE SOMETHING CALLED... LIFE.

came out of my gumline.

I froze. I immediately knew what happened, but didn’t want to believe reality. How could this be? On a busy Saturday of all days when my husband is out of town. Do I dare look in the mirror?

I looked in the mirror. Everything became so much worse once my eyes saw the horror.

Oh, the horror.

“What’s wrong, Mommy?” My daughter asked from the back seat.

“Nothing,” I said calmly, at-

tempting to shove my tooth back in as to not give her nightmares for years to come.

My mind raced as to how this could have happened. My memory ran back 17 years prior to a hot, humid sunny day when I was playing centerfield for my high school softball team. I saw myself standing in the outfield, visor on, peering intently into the blinding sun trying to find a fly ball hit in my direction.

Long story short, I didn’t catch it. But, I did get hit directly in the mouth.

That direct hit ended up killing my front tooth, and penciled

me in for a root canal and a pretty porcelain cap to hide the effects of an error in the outfield. I hadn’t thought about that day in 17 years. But as I looked at myself in the mirror on that tooth-falling-out day, it all came flooding back.

Miraculously, I was able to get my tooth fixed that day by a sweet dentist who gave up his Saturday to do a pretty lengthy procedure. Afterward, we had a birthday party to attend, and the first words out of my daughter’s mouth to everyone in attendance was, “Mommy’s tooth fell out and it looked bad.”

In fact, for the next few days, that was the announcement she would tell anyone who would listen.

Things happen. Life happens.

Teeth fall out. That's why dentists (thank the sweet, almighty Lord) have emergency call-in numbers on the weekends.

The only difference is — and perhaps why tooth-falling-out days feel slightly more traumatic than those of my earlier days — I get to have every kind of day in front of a live studio audience. That is, my little ones are sitting in my backseat watching me with their probing

eyes and minds. Taking in all my reactions, judging me, emulating me, and providing intell to perfect strangers about my life.

I took a picture of myself in the dentist office with the vast gap when my tooth was missing. I cringe and laugh when I think about the image. I showed my daughter and she cried. But now she tells her little brother about the day Mommy’s tooth fell out, and they all laugh hysterically.

At least tooth-falling-out days are funny… eventually. •

CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH ANNA STAHL STRIVES EVERY DAY TO BE THE CATALYST IN PEOPLE’S LIVES FOR THEM TO BE THEIR “BEST SELVES.” HER COMPANY, ANNACATE WHOLE HEALTH COACH, EMPOWERS CLIENTS TO FIND BALANCE AND EVERYDAY JOY IN ALL AREAS THROUGH FOOD AND FITNESS. WHEN STAHL ISN’T WORKING ON CUSTOMIZED PROGRAMS OR BLOGGING AND SHARING RECIPES, SHE’S ALSO TRYING TO LIVE HER BEST LIFE THROUGH TAYLOR SWIFT ANTHEMS, MORNING TEA, AND LOTS AND LOTS OF SLEEP. 5

I start my weekdays the same way each day: a Lärabar with a morning tea – Tazo Awake English Breakfast or Earl Grey [1] or, on occasion, a tasty Bulletproof coffee (froth a cup of dark roast, one tablespoon of grass-fed butter, and a teaspoon of Brain Octane Oil).

2

Two to three days a week I teach LesMills BodyPump at GreatLife (Woodlake) [2]. When I’m not weight-lifting from this class, you’ll find me in the hot yoga studio, walking my pup, or trying to get out for a run. Moving the body plus Spotify (a fab playlist) equals happiness.

Since I started coaching, I have done quite a bit of journaling/writing [3]. I love to write, feel, share, love, and dream. Reading books that challenge me, make me smile, or invigorate a sense of adventure is always a good use of time!

I really enjoy cooking. I think it’s become obvious to me in the past few years that cooking healthy, greattasting foods for others is my way of giving to those I love in my life.

3

When I’m not at home eating dinner, I relish in the dining experience!

Pairing amazing flavors with wines (like a cheese platter from Prairie Berry East Bank [4]) and joyful company and authentic conversation is one of my very favorite things to do. The experience it can cultivate with friends and family makes me smile.

With any free time, I love stepping into stores like Zandbroz Variety [5]. All the cute trinkets, games, cards, books… the way it smells (and has since the days years ago when my mom would take my sister and me to grab a shake at the back counter) makes it a time-tested favorite spot in town. It’s our city’s version of another favorite – Patina in Minneapolis.

6

My number one is my Samoyed pup, Jade [6]. She’s the cutest thing you’ll ever see (admittedly has a little attitude like her mom, but I’ll take it).

The girl gets more compliments from random strangers than I ever will!

MEET THE Artist RICH SHOW TYPE OF ARTIST: MUSICIAN

BY KYLE DETERMAN

MEET NOTABLE SOUTH DAKOTA MUSICIAN RICH SHOW. AS A LOCALLY GROWN ARTIST, SHOW IS NOW RE-RECORDING SONGS FROM HIS 40 YEARS OF CREATING MUSIC AND IS PREPARING FOR THE RELEASE OF HIS NEW DOUBLE ALBUM FROM DIFFERENT FOLK RECORDS, THAT WAS THE FUTURE, THIS IS THE PAST. FROM PERFORMING LEAD VOCALS IN ALTERNATIVE ROCK BANDS TO WRITING CLASSIC ROCK BALLADS, SHOW MANAGES TO UNCOVER WHAT ROCK AND ROLL MEANS AND HOW IT CHANGES PEOPLE. WHETHER SHOW IS PLAYING WITH HIS DOGS, VIOLET AND HOPS, OR WATCHING A WES ANDERSON CLASSIC, HE IS ALWAYS FOCUSING ON THE POWER THE ARTS PROVIDE IN DAILY LIFE. DISCOVER WHAT MAKES THIS MIDWEST MELODIST TICK JUST IN TIME TO INDULGE IN HIS NEWEST SOLO WORK, WHICH WILL RELEASES JANUARY 27 WITH A PERFORMANCE AT THE ORPHEUM THEATER IN SIOUX FALLS.

YOU MAY KNOW ME FROM… local bands. No Direction, Flag With Hank, Violet, The Working Poor, The All Get Outs, The Body Electric, Geaux-Geaux, Fingers, These Charming Men, and Oxford Comma.

MY FIRST MUSIC-RELATED MEMORY IS… The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show and The Monkees TV show.

THE ONE THING I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT IS… my MP3 player and a nice set of headphones. And mineral water.

MY FAVORITE PLACE TO PLAY MUSIC IS… Total Drag. It’s very intimate and very artist-encouraging, whether you’re doing your first performance or your 200th performance. I don’t know if this is true or not, but it feels like whatever you do

O MEET THE ARTIST: RICH SHOW CONT. in there, it will be appreciated or considered, and that’s pretty special. No cover songs allowed! But, before Total Drag, I had many nights at the Pomp Room, The Limelight, and Phil’s Pub. I even remember an acoustic set that Mark Romanowski and I did at The Brew Pub, which is now Luciano’s [North].

MY FAVORITE LOCAL PLACE TO HANG OUT IS… Hy-Vee. MY GO-TO PRE-SHOW RITUAL … is to call the Palmer Candy Company in Sioux City to see how their King Bing inventory is.

Then I leave a message and let them know I’m a big fan. They’ve never called back…

YOU PROBABLY DON’T KNOW THIS, BUT I… play the bagpipes, and I was in air traffic controller school back in the day.

I THINK THE QUALITY OF MUSIC DEPENDS ON… how good the idea is and how it makes you feel. Does it make you want to listen to them over and over? There are many songs that sound very simple, but I will listen to it over and over again because of how they make me feel. I want to somehow find the essence and hope it will rub off on me. A great guitar lead or a great vocal performance cannot save or fix a bad song. The lyrics might be great, but the song still sucks. I want the whole package.

IF I WASN’T MAKING MUSIC, I WOULD BE… insane.

THE LAST MOVIE I WATCHED WAS … Bushwick and Wrecked.

I re-watched The Royal Tenenbaums the other day. Wes Anderson is so fun.

IF MY DOGS COULD TALK, THEY WOULD SAY… sausages!

THE BIGGEST CHANGE I’VE SEEN IN SOUTH DAKOTA MUSIC IS… when I started, most bands played the hits of the day and they would stop and make a point to let everyone know that they were going to play an “original song,” like the gods reached down and appointed them the vessel that this music would be performed. Nowadays, bands play their own music and occasionally throw in a cover song.

I’M OBSESSED WITH… finding new music to listen to.

IF I COULD HAVE A YACHT OR A PRIVATE JET, I WOULD CHOOSE… to sell them.

MY FAVORITE RECORD I’VE BEEN INVOLVED IN IS… That was the Future, This is the Past. This project, more or less, forced me to dig into my past to see where I’d been and how far I’ve come.

Now I have to deal with the future.

IF I HAD TO PICK A SONG THAT DESCRIBES ME, I WOULD PICK… Even the Losers by Tom Petty.

ASK THE JOHNS

Know Your SD

YES, ALL THREE OF THESE GUYS ARE NAMED JOHN. YES, IT WAS A POPULAR NAME IN THE ‘80S. THE IDENTITY OF THESE THREE AMIGOS HAVE BEEN ALTERED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT. HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE JOHNS? SHOOT AN E-MAIL THEIR WAY AT THEJOHNS@605MAGAZINE.COM.

MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR A FEW MONTHS, AND ONE OF HER FRIENDS WILL NOT STOP BUGGING US ABOUT HAVING KIDS. SHE EVEN STARTED SENDING US BABY STUFF! HOW DO I TELL HER TO BACK OFF WITHOUT MAKING ANYONE MAD?

JR: I would ask her if she kept a receipt, because what she sent wasn’t exactly your style. Once you get the receipt, take the item back, and use the funds to take her out for a nice glass of wine. Tell her this is more what you have in mind for the foreseeable future.

JW: Start spreading rumors that you might have been wanted for dozens of child labor law violations in the Reno, Nev. area. Then start saying things like you would like to get some more help around the house or at work. Things will figure themselves out.

JT: It happens. The ones closest to you love you, and they sometimes give unsolicited advice or comments. Maybe take the time to politely tell your friend you appreciate them, but you will let them know if and when you’re planning on having children.

EVERY TIME WE INVITE MY SISTER OVER FOR DINNER, SHE BRINGS A DIFFERENT GUY AS HER DATE. WE HAVE DINNER ONCE A WEEK… WHEN IS IT OKAY FOR ME TO SAY SOMETHING?

JR: You should say something.

And that something should be, “Get it, girl!”

JW: Make a name plaque and put it where he's going to be sitting. Put a bunch of guys' names on it, but cross their names out, and then put his name at the bottom. She'll think that is hilarious.

JT: If you’re really sensitive to this, let her know she doesn’t have a plus-one once in a while.

But really, unless it’s super annoying, let her date and have fun.

+

Pork tenderloin is just as lean as a skinless chicken breast.

I’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT A CAREER CHANGE LATELY, BUT EVERYONE I TALK TO SAYS IT WOULDN’T BE FINANCIALLY SAVVY. I REALLY THINK I WOULD BE HAPPIER IF I LOOKED ELSEWHERE FOR WORK. IS IT WORTH THE POTENTIAL CUT IN PAY?

+

JR: It has been scientifically proven that you can buy happiness with money. Just picture all those dollar bills you’re earning at your current job and watch as a feeling of contentment takes over.

+

JW: In the words of Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross: "Put that coffee down, coffee is for closers only." If you aren't in 100 percent, you're fired. Get out, you hack! So yeah, hit the bricks, you pre-quitter.

JT: What is your happiness worth? If you’re miserable, but are making great money, is the money worth it? Enjoy every day and do what’s best for you.
