💕 Galentine’s Yoga, Valentine’s Concerts & Hands-On Creativity

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Happy Tuesday, New Braunfels! Valentine’s week is officially here, and today’s email is filled with stories about connection, creativity, and doing something a little different. Whether you’re carving out time to unwind, planning a memorable night out, or finally trying a new hobby you’ve been curious about, today’s lineup has something worth adding to your week.

💖 REFRESH, RESET & GLOW THIS VALENTINE’S SEASON

Dry winter skin? Consider this your sign to reset. Newman & Company is hosting its Valentine Winter Rewind event this week, focused on restoring hydration, repairing skin, and helping you glow heading into the season of love. Enjoy exclusive event-only skincare offers, targeted treatments designed for winter recovery, and special gift certificate pricing available for a limited time.

It’s also the perfect excuse for a Galentine glow-up, with added perks when friends shop or book together. Appointments and products are limited, so now’s the time to treat yourself (or each other).

FLOW, BREATHE & RESET AT GALENTINE’S YOGA UNDERGROUND

A One-of-a-Kind Yoga & Sound Bath Experience 180 Feet Below Ground

Galentine’s plans don’t get more unique than this. This Friday at 5:30 PM, join an all-levels yoga flow led by Winzer Van Delden inside the Ballroom at Natural Bridge Caverns, located 180 feet underground. The experience pairs gentle movement with a deeply calming sound bath in one of Texas’ most naturally resonant spaces.

Your ticket also includes a guided walk through the stunning Hidden Cavern, making this both a wellness experience and an adventure. With capacity limited to just 65 participants, this underground yoga session tends to sell out quickly.

STOP HARD WATER BEFORE IT DAMAGES YOUR HOME 💧

Hard water can quietly damage your home, appliances, and even your skin. If you’re seeing buildup on fixtures, cloudy glasses, or soap that won’t lather, you’re feeling the effects of New Braunfels’ mineral-heavy water.

Aqua-Man Water Conditioning offers a free, no-obligation water analysis to show you exactly what’s in your water and what solutions actually make sense for your home. Their licensed local team also services most major systems and offers a 90-day risk-free softener trial.

👉 Schedule your free water analysis and see what’s really coming out of your tap

🛡️ PROTECT YOUR HEALTH BEFORE YOU NEED IT

Recent data from U.S. News & World Report shows Comal County residents live nearly three years longer than the national average. That’s great news. But there’s one concern that stands out: a higher-than-average number of locals don’t have health insurance. And when the unexpected happens, that gap can get expensive fast.

If you’ve been avoiding coverage because it feels confusing or out of reach, Penn Mallery can help. He specializes in affordable, custom PPO health plans for individuals, families, and small businesses, with year-round enrollment and nationwide networks. No pressure, no sales tactics—just clear answers and real options from a local expert.
