You will never find time for anything. If you want time you must make it.

Editors' Note

Time is of the essence and we are making the most of it in this November issue of Modern Luxuria. As the holiday season approaches, we recognize the importance of recharging and gearing up for the frenzy that is headed our way. If it’s some much needed self care, a few days away from the hustle and bustle of city life, or simply sustenance with friends and family, we have sourced out some incredible ways for you to unwind. Our city and province is a living, breathing resource for renewal. Let’s take advantage!

Traditionally, women are more apt to take that much needed breath. Whether it’s a massage, facial or simply a manicure, we’ll find the time. But EvelineCharles Salons and Spas is experiencing an upward trend with their Modern Men! From pedicures to laser treatments, there is an evolving optic pertaining to aesthetics. It’s not purely for outward appearances, it’s an incredible way to decompress after a long day of work, settling both the mind and body. Manicures and men are the perfect match!

Life is a highway! Why not venture out in Land Rover’s newest addition! An epic sound system for your favourite songs and an open road is where you can clear your thoughts and catch your breath. Select a small town and support a local business for coffee or lunch. It doesn’t have to be a complicated, grand plan but it can be done in the comfort and luxury of the Land Rover Defender! Don’t wait for the weekends! Any day is a good day to get out of town! A few hours’ drive can get you to world class, snow capped mountains. With an endless supply of fresh air and outdoor adventures, Alberta offers up the very best of nature’s remedies. If relaxing includes snow sports, Sundance Ski and Snowboard can take your quiet jaunt to whatever level you desire. From rentals to tours and with decades of experience, check out Sundance! Because the adventure and thrill

seekers need to decompress too, right?
