What do we mean when we say “sacred space”?

That word “sacred” gets thrown around a lot in wellness circles. It can mean many different things for different people, in different contexts, and with varying degrees of weight.

What we mean when we say that Mountain Rose is a sacred space is that when you walk through the doors, you feel held. Safe. Encouraged to return to yourself, even if it’s just for the next hour, next class, next acupuncture session.

Sacred space, for us, means that you’re home within your body while you’re with us.

Hello friends, Ana here.

I have made the incredibly difficult decision to close the retail space here at Mountain Rose. While this decision did not come lightly, it was time to make it, especially given the rising cost of… well, everything.

When I told my dad I’d decided to close my retail space, he said, “Congratulations! I’m proud of you for making the decision!” He knows it’s been a struggle for the past few years, for a number of reasons, to keep the doors open. He’s seen me try everything I can within my means. Sometimes, everything you’ve got just isn’t enough.

I say this because I think a decision like this deserves to be celebrated, even though it's incredibly difficult. Change is hard, and when we courageously make a choice that we know will be hard, that deserves praise in and of itself. Even if we’re grieving what was or what could have been. Even if we’re really sad about the choice, making the choice is a celebration.

My goal is to have the retail space cleared out by the end of June. We will be having discounted pricing on all retail items between now and then to move the inventory we have from our shop into your hands. Please stop in, say hi, pick up a few incredible pieces and tools for your practice, and say goodbye to the space as you know it.

While this decision is incredibly difficult, it’s also liberating. I can’t wait to take Mountain Rose into this new direction, have more space for events and gatherings, and let this space tell me what it wants to be next!

(Just to be clear… this is the retail space only. Yoga, pilates, and acupuncture are still here to stay at Mountain Rose! Visit our booking page today to get into a class or acupuncture session!)

Stress. We all have it.

Kids need to be picked up.
Meals need to be made.
Work needs to be done.
Deals need to be closed.
Dogs need to be walked.
Big decisions need to be decided upon.
Hard choices need to be chosen.

Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING is stressful, especially right now being a human in the world.

Stress is one of the main reasons people come to see us for acupuncture. Acupuncture, as a whole, helps to relieve stress by calming the nervous system, reducing cortisol levels, and releasing endorphins.

If you’re feeling the stresses and pressures of life lately, treat yourself to a session with Ana and some of her acupuncture magic.

It's Metaphysical Monday, folks!

This week, we want to talk about Oracle decks!

Oracle decks are a tool to help you sharpen and understand your own intuition and energy. While often used in tandem with tarot cards, Oracle decks are a kind of “vibe check” for things you may be curious about.

Use them before, during, and after tarot readings, as an intuition check for any questions you may have, or just draw one daily to see what kind of energy your day holds.

We’ve got lots of decks to browse here at Mountain Rose - come in and see what speaks to you!

What are the benefits of doing yoga in-studio vs. anywhere else?

While the rise of live-stream services like Peleton take the gym and bring it to you, yoga is one of those things that sometimes doesn’t translate as well from studio to screen for a number of reasons.

If you’re new to yoga, it may seem less intimidating to practice within the comfort of your own home. However, in-studio yoga gives you the opportunity for real-time corrections and suggestions with a teacher, which can ultimately keep you from injury or harm as you practice.
Yoga studios provide a dedicated space free from distractions where you can really connect with yourself, your body, and your practice.
Yoga studios (like Mountain Rose) often have mats, blocks, bolsters, straps, and other tools for modification to help you feel comfortable, supported, and able to get the most from your practice. If you have to purchase these things on your own, the price can add up!
Something the pandemic took from us that we’re still working to get back to is the simple fact that community matters! Practicing with others in a group not only helps to motivate, but is social interaction we desperately need as humans! It’s nice to walk into a class and see friendly, familiar faces, even if it’s only once a week!

Does that mean you shouldn’t practice yoga at home? Of course not! Any way you can practice yoga that feels good for you is wonderful, but if it’s been a while since you’ve joined an actual class in a studio, we invite you to join us! Even adding a studio class once a week to your practice makes a huge difference - come and see!

If you’ve ever wondered who's behind the scenes here at Mountain Rose, now you know!

As a small business owner, I wear a lot of hats:

CEO

Janitor

There’s always something to be done, and there’s never enough time to do it! I am grateful to all those who keep me balanced and keep coming back to Mountain Rose for services - you make all the crazy, busy, one-man-show days worth it!

Many think of Yoga as a way to leave their life behind for an hour and disconnect from what’s going on outside of the studio and their practice.

While this isn’t incorrect, Yoga is really about tapping back into your body and being present. It’s about coming back to yourself again and again, over and over, and knowing that even when life gets hectic, you’ll be waiting in the quiet moments of Yoga to welcome yourself back home.

We’d love to hear what Yoga means to you - comment below and let’s talk about it 💜

Welcome back for our second installment of Metaphysical Monday!

Today we want to talk about Labradorite, and look at this beautiful piece we have in the shop!

Labradorite is known as a powerful “stone of transformation” and is best used for enhancing intuition, protecting your aura, and boosting willpower. It helps to protect against negativity, acting as a shield, and balances energies in a person or a space.

Labradorite is best cleansed using moonlight or smoke (such as incense), and can also be cleansed using selenite.

If you’re feeling called to add some Labradorite to your collection, get a hold of Ana to set up a private shopping appointment, or join us during our retail hours on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 12:30 pm - 4 pm and Saturdays from 11 am - 2 pm.

Did you know that acupuncture can help with fertility?

Acupuncture can be a great addition to your fertility strategy. Studies show that there’s 60% more success with IVF if patients receive Acupuncture, especially around embryo transfer.

Acupuncture can help reduce stress, improve blood flow to reproductive organs, regulate menstrual cycles, and improve male fertility as well!

If you’re interested in learning more about Acupuncture and fertility, reach out to Ana today! Ana has helped many on their journey to becoming parents, and would love to help you!

One of the things I take seriously as the owner of Mountain Rose is that our services are for everyone.

Everyone.

Sometimes, especially in today’s world, you have to choose between attending a yoga class and groceries. Between acupuncture treatments and filling your car up.

As a business owner, I have to make these decisions as well. It’s no secret that for many of us, the winter months were HARD this year. Financially, spiritually, physically, mentally.

If we pull back a bit further, being a person in the world is hard right now. Society tells us that it’s not okay to struggle, that you’re a failure if you’re having a hard time. You need to deal with it yourself and figure it out. Bootstraps, and all that.

It’s simply not true. Now, more than ever, we need community to lift us up and keep us all safe, healthy, and centered.

In May, Mountain Rose will begin to offer financial aid for yoga and acupuncture services. There are many who might feel that yoga and acupuncture “aren’t in their budget” at this time, and given expenses today, they’re right. We hope that by taking away some of the financial barriers to yoga and acupuncture for those who truly need it, we can give back to our community in some small way.

Ana is looking into ways for others to give back to the community as well - if you want to “pay it forward” to help cover costs of memberships and treatments, keep an eye out as we roll the program out in May!

Remember - If you continue to pour from an empty cup, everyone goes thirsty. Fill your cup so you can continue to pour into others, and we’ll do our best to continue to pour into you.

Welcome to our first installment of Metaphysical Mondays, where we will be showcasing different items in our shop and educating YOU on properties of the metaphysical realm and how they can help in your spiritual and daily practce.

For our first MM, we’ve got some GORGEOUS Menalite, also known as Goddess Stone. These stones are made of an opaline concretion and are formed over years due to pressure and perfect conditions, giving them their unique shape.

These stones are great for grounding, feminine wisdom and empowerment, deep emotional healing, and help during times of transition and to protect against negative energy.

If you want to learn more about the Goddess Stone, or want to check them out for yourself, stop by the shop during our retail hours on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 12:30 pm - 4 pm and Saturdays from 11 am - 2 pm, or you can always contact Ana to make an appointment for some solo or small-group shopping.
