I’m loving this trend where people post childhood photos to show all the different things they do today… so I went digging through some old pics. 😄

Little me had no idea where life would lead, but looking back, the threads are pretty clear: curiosity. Movement. A love of adventure. And building a community that takes good care of themselves — and each other — without taking themselves too seriously. 💛

This is who dreams up yoga retreats in far-reaching corners of the planet. 🌍

This is who teaches yoga online, so you can practice at home or wherever you roam. 🧘

This is who writes weekly newsletter-love notes to keep you inspired. 💌

This is who knows that yoga is for everybody — or quite literally, Every. Body. 💛

This is who nudges you toward a quiet nook and a moment to restore yourself. 🕯️

This is who curates monthly playlists — to move you on the mat or wherever your adventures take you. 🎶✨

This is who came out of the gate curious - and still loves seeking what’s on the other side.

Same heart, same kid… now exploring beautiful corners of the world, with endless gratitude for the community that practices, travels, and grows alongside her. 💛

I knew this day would come.

Ellis, my youngest, left for college this past fall. Friends warned me: “Three or four o’clock — that’s when it’ll hit. The time the kids used to roll in from school.”

Sure enough, this Monday. Right on schedule.

A wave of melancholy. A sinking.

It landed especially hard because my daughter Mason was recently sworn into the Army. With so much uncertainty in the world, I find myself worrying for her safety — for the safety of so many. That may have deepened the ache. But I suspect it was coming regardless.

Life brings these seismic shifts — graduations, moves, changes in work, relationships, geography. We traverse the tender terrain of endings and beginnings. And it’s here we’re invited to grow. To shape-shift. To step into a new version of ourselves.

My friend Paige offered me a reframe that felt quietly brilliant. Instead of empty nest — she calls it re-nesting.

Because the nest isn’t empty. It’s evolving.

And in that open space, Ben and I started asking: if the kids are spreading their wings — maybe we should spread ours too?

So... we bought tickets to Spain. 🇪🇸

A month in Granada — March 24 through April 17 — working from the road, scouting retreat locations, and taking it all in. I’ll be teaching livestream yoga and sharing snippets along the way.

For years I’ve encouraged you to step outside your comfort zone. To book the retreat. To carve out time for yourself even when it feels inconvenient.

Practice what you preach, right?

This is me doing just that.

If something in your life is quietly calling you forward — I hope you’ll listen. 🤍

What wings might you be stretching these days?

Some weeks, the words pour out with ease. This week, they can't seem to find shape or form. Maybe it's the season doing something I don't have a name for — no snow, warm light, March pretending to be May. Nature is usually my anchor, and right now even that feels a little sideways. Or maybe it's something else — something brewing, shifting, just below the surface of me. A quiet disorientation that feels less like something is wrong and more like something is coming.

So I'm sharing a piece a friend offered me on retreat this January.

We’re crossing a quiet threshold—moving from the year of the Snake into the year of the Horse.

Snake energy is inward and cyclical.
It’s the year of shedding skins. Of noticing what no longer fits and allowing it to fall away. Snake doesn’t rush this work. It listens. It waits. It knows that transformation happens in its own time, often beneath the surface, often unseen.
Much of what Snake teaches us is private.
Subtle clarity. A deeper sense of what’s essential. A lightening we may not even have language for yet.

And then Horse arrives.
Horse is movement and momentum—but also range. Distance. New terrain. The feeling of packing lightly and setting out. Horse is breath in the lungs and curiosity in the chest. It asks us to lift our eyes from the ground and notice the horizon. Horse energy invites us into adventure—not necessarily something dramatic, but something honest. A willingness to step beyond the familiar. To say yes to experience. To trust the legs beneath us and the path unfolding ahead.

This isn’t about rushing. It’s about choosing direction. The body is different now. The load is lighter. There’s room for movement, for travel, for discovery. Horse doesn’t leave Snake behind. It carries its wisdom forward — discernment becoming motion, intuition finding legs.

As we march through March, I keep coming back to that last line. This month’s invitation is simple: take one honest step toward what you want more of right now. Not a plan. Not a resolution. Just a step.

I have some dreams rising to the surface for myself, and I've taken a few quiet first steps of my own. I'll share more about that next week...

I’m back from retreat (my 20th, 21st, and 22nd in beautiful Nosara, Costa Rica) and trying to hold on to the lightness of life in the tropics as the world quickly presses in and responsibility resumes.

Jack Kornfield wrote a whole book about this moment. After the Ecstasy, the Laundry — the title alone says everything. Profound transformation and dirty dishes. Insight and inbox. Both true, both yours, both happening at the same time.

There’s something about the magic that unfolds when we step out of our lives for a moment to restore ourselves. Some of it is pure joy — laughter, ease, the relief of just being. And some of it is quieter than that. When we’re no longer managing every detail, a different kind of knowing has space to rise. A higher view. The kind of clarity that was there all along — just waiting for us to get quiet enough to hear it.

I don’t share this to brag. I share it because I think most of us are overdue for something like it.

We need to gather with our people outside of ordinary time. Explore new landscapes, get outside, laugh hard, move our bodies, and make new memories. You don’t need me for any of that — though I love being the one to plan every detail so you don’t have to.

No meals to plan, no dishes to wash, no next thing to manage. Just space to step away from responsibility and let someone take care of you for a change. I know “holding space” sounds a bit “woke” or “woo” to some. But I love it. It perfectly describes what I’m passionate about—and I’m not “woo” at all.

This year, I returned home stronger than I have felt in years — from daily yoga, nourishing food, and time in nature away from screens. Back in the mountains, I’m figuring out how to hold onto some of that in real life. Twenty minutes in the morning before I open my phone. A walk with our dog, Mila. Choosing quiet over a podcast. Nothing dramatic — just small choices that add up.

With love (& a pile of laundry) ✨

10 years of offering this magical retreat have proven that the week outside regular life is a vital reset for all who participate. For some, this is an annual retreat; a timestamp within each year to connect, reflect, and redirect. For others, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that inspires change and recentering. For all of us, it is a return to what is most important, a time to connect with ourselves and each other, and with all the beauty and love that there is.

Thank you for bringing yourselves so fully to the jungle once again.

See you for the 2027 Costa Rica Yoga. Surf. Retreat.

I'm beaming in from the warmth of Costa Rica, where the howler monkeys wake us at dawn, and the only breaking news is whether the tide at sunset will be low enough to float in tidal pools. I know the contrast isn't lost on either of us—you bundled against January, me barefoot with salt in my hair.

So I'm tucking a few tropical moments into your inbox. Not to show off, but to remind us both that these pockets of ease exist. That we can step away. That there's a rhythm underneath all the noise, and sometimes you just need to go somewhere warm to hear it again.

This poem, by Alessandra Olanow, has been one we've returned to all week. 💜

There is a place where
the sea meets the sky,
where boundaries
dissolve into something
unnamed and perfect.
I love to dwell in this
in-between space,
this gentle blur
that defies definition.
Here, in this margin
between azure depths
and endless heavens,
there is no need to
choose sides or
claim territory.
It simply exists,
as I wish to exist—
undefined,
uncategorized,
unclaimed,
free from the weight of
belonging to one world
or another.
In this liminal space,
being is enough.

I hope these words—and the images that follow—offer a little warmth and lightness to your day.

A few years ago, a friend came to yoga wearing the most beautiful purple pants. I swooned over the color. & after class, I asked where she got them—half-jokingly offering to buy them. She graciously agreed.

Later, while texting to thank her, I went searching for an emoji that matched the exact shade of purple. That’s when I spotted it—right there between the pineapple and the lettuce. The eggplant. Perfect. So I added it enthusiastically. 🍆🍆🍆🍆 🍆

Not long after, I was texting with someone joining me on retreat. I wanted to end our message with excitement, so I added a string of tropical emojis: 🌴☀️🧘🏻🌊🐒💫 And sitting there in my “recently used”? The eggplant. 🍆 So I tossed it in, just to be random.

To be funny. Over the next few weeks, I sent a handful of messages with yep… you guessed it—the eggplant. And occasionally, the conversation would just stop. No reply. I didn’t think much of it.

Months later, in a text exchange with my sister, she says: “Ten! You do know what the eggplant emoji means, don’t you?!?”
I did not. So I looked it up. In case you don’t know either: the eggplant emoji is widely recognized internet slang for… a suggestive reference to a p***s. It’s typically used in flirtatious or sexual contexts.

You can imagine my horror. I recalled everyone I’d sent it to—friends, family, and yes… even women I hadn’t yet met. Those mysteriously dropped conversations made a lot more sense. Once the shock wore off, I found the whole thing hilarious. There I was—trying to be lighthearted and playful—completely unaware of how my messages might be landing. I still laugh about it.

This year, my friend Mackenzie—who knows this whole story—gifted me an eggplant Christmas ornament. It now hangs proudly on my tree—a reminder that miscommunication happens, often in unexpected ways.

So here’s a gentle reminder: Be kind. Be generous in your assumptions. Give people some grace. If someone’s words land strangely—or an emoji feels confusing—maybe pause before jumping to conclusions. There may be a well-meaning, playful human on the other side.

(And if you ever received a 🍆 from me, it was purely nonsensical. Sorry about that. 😊)

Fresh from another Day of the Dead retreat, I'm struck by the importance of savoring this one life. I can’t stop reflecting on what the Día de Mu***os celebrations teach so well: life is meant to be lived fully, honored deeply, and not put off for someday.

In Mexico, that truth isn’t whispered—it’s lived, with color and candles, laughter and tears, remembrance and celebration braided into one. The experience gently but insistently asks: What matters most? What are we waiting for? What do we want to do with this one life we have?

That's the gift of travel. Not just seeing new places, but seeing ourselves a little differently—clarifying what we value, releasing what we don’t, and remembering how good life feels when shared with others.

Whether you join me or create adventures of your own—I encourage you: don’t wait.

Doors open this week for my 2026 Day of the Dead Yoga & Culture Retreat in Mexico. If you've been curious about this lively, yet heartfelt, experience, I'd love for you to join me. Click the link in my bio for more details. Or send me a message—I'm here and happy to answer your questions.

About Tener Rogers Yoga

Tener believes that yoga is for everybody—or quite literally, every body—and her classes reflect this. Her lighthearted approach to yoga creates a warm, welcoming environment for all who practice with her. Her classes offer a unique blend of precise alignment; deliberate, thoughtful sequencing; and a whole lot of laughter and joy.

Tener’s balanced, accessible approach to yoga is the result of her own journey through the fitness industry. She has a degree in exercise science, as well as years of experience as a fitness instructor and personal trainer—but yoga is now the glue that holds it all together. Day after day, she is drawn back to her mat, both as a student and a teacher. Tener appreciates the transformative power of yoga and she shines in her ability to hold space for her students and to create a fun, nurturing, and supportive environment. Tener wants her students to leave class feeling open—in body and heart.

A certified Yoga Alliance instructor, Tener completed her 500 hr RYT at the Nosara Yoga Institute in Costa Rica and continues to expand her practice by studying with other yoga masters at every opportunity. Her vinyasa classes are flavored with influences from the Anusara tradition. Off the mat, Tener practices yoga in the form of mothering, traveling, spending time in nature, and inspiring women to make healthy, lasting lifestyle change.
