o help broaden its guests’ knowledge on family wellness issues and empower
women to make better health decisions for themselves and their loved ones,
BodiScience Wellness Center & Spa introduced “Ayurvedic Philosophy” in 1991.
“Using Ayurveda as a strong foundation, we shared with our clients about the
many areas of health that needed to have a focus, not just diet and exercise,” says BodiScience Founder and Chief Executive Dawn Tardif. Today,
the spa inspires clients to pass on their health knowledge to their kids.
“They have grown into incredibly well-educated, healthy young
adults. We see it now.” To strengthen its education-focused offering,
the spa first teaches staff members, who in turn, share their knowledge
to guests. “We taught, shared with and invested in them through
weekly meetings and inspiration focus,” Tardif says.

eaming up with elementary schools and the Women’s Dermatological
Society, colorescience’s “Sunstoppable” campaign aims to teach children
and young adults about the importance of sunscreen and the dangers of
too much sun exposure. “We know that protection today means beautiful, healthy
skin tomorrow but millions of Americans don’t always realize that every sunburn
counts and UV rays can have an impact on your skin 365 days a year. We aim to
change the conversation because prevention through sun protection matters every day
to everyone,” says National Director of Hospitality & Strategic Accounts Lisa Edmonson.
Providing shade from the sun is an important part of the campaign. Earlier this year, colorescience partnered with Ocean Knoll Elementary School in Encinitas, California and planted
six trees in the school’s playground area. Aside from planting trees, the company also
donated sun sails to ensure kids can take refuge from the sun when playing outdoors.
