There’s a past version of me that thought yoga was a trend, that you need to look great in tight clothes to do it, that you need to know all the shapes to be able to practice… I know now that none of this is true.

What I do know is that my body has never felt stronger, that my joints are experiencing an increased range of motion and that I feel supported and held by the community that has been built through yoga.

I will return to the mat again and again because I deserve to feel good and strong and healthy, and because feeling good is somewhat addictive ❤️

You’ve been warned.

It’s a snowy day, but we show up for practice all the same… love watching the snow drift down through these windows.

Are you planning to attend a Yin Yoga session with me this week?

Our focus for the week is the spine- not just the structural support of our body, but also the energy and information highwaty that runs through the central channel of our being.

If you've been feeling creatively blocked lately, stuck in your energy or a little emotionally shut down recently, come get your energy flowing as we nurture and nourish the spine through gentle movement.

Wednesdays at 1:00- Melt: Yin with Stef
Thursdays at 5:45- Quiet Hour: Yin and Meditation

Another midday meditation.. one of the great things about this beautiful space is its ability to go from light to dark… light and airy when we’re moving, dark and cozy when it’s time to turn inward.

Most people believe meditation means stopping thoughts.
That’s why they sit down, close their eyes… and feel like they’re failing within seconds.

The mind starts racing.
Plans appear.
Memories surface.
Worries knock loudly.

And people conclude: “I can’t meditate.”

But here’s the truth 👇

Meditation is not about forcing the mind to go blank.
It’s about changing your relationship with your thoughts.

At first, the mind is noisy — and that’s not a problem.
That noise was always there; you’re just noticing it for the first time.

Then something subtle happens: You stop fighting the thoughts.
You stop chasing them.
You stop believing every story they tell.

You begin to observe without reacting.

Thoughts still arise —
but they no longer own you.
They pass like clouds, while you remain the sky.

With time, the mind naturally settles.
Not because you controlled it,
but because you stopped interfering.

And in that quiet awareness: • Clarity replaces confusion
• Peace replaces restlessness
• Presence replaces overthinking

Meditation is not about thinking less.
It’s about being less controlled by thinking.

Sit.
Breathe.
Observe.
Let go.

The calm you’re searching for
isn’t something you create —
it’s something you uncover.
