Arms open wide for warrior 2!

Personally, this is one of my favorite poses.

Wide stance, grounded through the feet.

Gazing forward towards what’s ahead …

Join Carly tonight at 5:30pm for Zen Power and find your inner warrior!

Way back Wednesday— March 2024! ✨

Wall paint and logo colors were being decided!

The wall paint color is called “slumber sloth.” 🦥 I knew right away it was the color I wanted.

— But I had such a hard time selecting my Zen Den logo colors.

I finally decided on “grapefruit” & “clementine.” ☺️

Now, I couldn’t see it any other way 🩷💛🖤

1. Why did you first come to the Zen Den?

I used to teach [yoga] and after a bad car accident, lost myself a bit and shyed away from my practice completely. I was hunting for a new yoga home where I could find myself again and return to my breath. Google and local word of mouth led me to ZD.

2. What made you return?

I left that first class in tears. I felt feelings and a peace I hadn’t had in years. I left there feeling how I felt at the beginning... before my accident.

3. Favorite class?

Zen Restore with Sade… But that changes as my life season changes.

4. Favorite essential oil?

Spearmint or Lemon.

5. Favorite pose?

Haaaa … Too many of them. Lately child’s pose. I’m feeling that’s its okay to return to my beginnings.

6. To Om or not to Om?

Definitely to om. However, Kim has an amazing one to sit and take in!!

Thank you for being a part of our community, Melissa!!!

We appreciate all of your support and for sharing more about yourself 🩷🖤💛

Did you know we offer private yoga classes?

This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of hosting Yelena, and four of her close friends for a birthday yoga class.

She chose blue lights, lemon essential oils and a Slow Flow.

Together, we moved through gentle poses and a standing sequence, reflecting on an intention of gratitude — for each other, for the space, and for the blessing of another year around the sun for Yelena. 🎈

One of the yogis was also pregnant, and we enjoyed sharing notes of our journeys so far.

The other mothers in class were so encouraging and reminded me that many of my hippy hour poses are perfect prenatal stretches 🙌

At the end of class, Yelena even gifted everyone - including me - a purple bag of goodies, including a delicious cupcake and tea of the same brand we carry at the Zen Den. (She has great taste! ;)

I enjoyed hearing their chatter as they headed out the door towards lunch, me cleaning up the space with a smile and gratitude for being able to host & take part in such a special celebration. 🙏🏻

If you’re interested in a private yoga session, feel free to reach out directly or head to our website and read all about it on our Private Yoga page.

We’d absolutely love to host you and your friends 🩷💛🖤

On the eve of this Valentine’s weekend, let me just kindly remind you that you are worthy of love.

Featured here is 2020 Kel:

She was single.

She was smiling, but struggling.

She dated herself for a while.

Kissed a few toads 🐸

Built her self confidence.

And was confident the right person would come along.

(Spoiler alert ‼️ he did — swipe right ;)

If this weekend ain’t your thing, I see you.

Try to give yourself the love you deserve… that love you so freely give to you friends and family.

— Maybe it’s a bath, a favorite meal or special treat.

Buy yourself some flowers from Trader Joe’s or a pint of Ben & Jerry’s and curl up on the couch and indulge.

You don’t have to look for love when it’s already inside of you ❤️🩷

Happy Friday yogis!! 💋
