ROOM raider
What: Reclaim your space (and your sanity) with a little help from the ultimate organizer, The Spacialist. How: Choose from an array of packages – like The Kick-Start Package (3 4-hour sessions). Where: Your place (or ours could use it too). When: When you hear yourself telling guests: “It’s an organized mess. I know where everything is within the pile.” Why: Your rooms say a lot about you. Put your best space forward! |

CENTRAL park drills
What: Looking for a workout that’s more than just a walk in the park? You can still benefit from the weather and scenery with Central Park Drills. Where: Meet at MonQi Fitness, 201 E. 67th St. (btw. 2nd and 3rd Aves.) and then jog as a group to the park. When: Tuesday evenings, 5:55 – 6:50 PM. How: $25 per class. Why: You’ll feel like a kid again, but get a serious adult-size workout. |

GRILLS night in
What: 4th of July BBQs can be difficult for New Yorkers with no outdoor space, but insiders know you can still have a traditional patriotic celebration without a backyard. Where: Your apartment. How: Prepare these yummy turkey burgers in the broiler and roast your corn on the cob in the oven. Eat with festive recycled plastic utensils. Why: With great friends and great food, you might not miss the great outdoors. |

RANI day escape
What: Hell’s Kitchen just got a little bit more balanced, with the arrival of a new location of the beloved ayurvedic spa Rani Spa. Where: 587 Tenth Avenue (43rd Street). When: Healing hours are 9:30 AM – 7:30 PM (Mon – Thur) and 9:30 – 8:30 PM (Fri – Sat). Book an appointment. Why: Ayurveda has been restoring balance and harmony to bodies and minds in India for thousands of years, so it’s about time us NYers got in on it. |
