The cost of always saying “I’m fine” while managing families, schedules, work, holidays, and the wider world is immense. But what goes unseen? Anxiety and depression don’t have a “look”—which is why they’re so often missed in our culture. Many of us don’t feel safe to share, we carry shame, and we’re taught to believe we must hold it all together. This puts immense pressure on the nervous system. Meanwhile, our bodies send us signals all day long that things are not fine—through physical symptoms, hormonal imbalances, digestive problems, chronic pain, or anxiety and depression. Yet our minds keep insisting we act “fine.” It’s unsustainable.

It’s not sustainable to stay silent. As human beings, we are meant to lean on community, to discharge fear, anger, and loneliness—and to laugh together.

This is also why we believe in choosing a yoga studio that feels like home. A space where your nervous system can dial down, where your body can breathe, where you feel warm, cozy, and truly seen. Yoga—through movement, breath, and focused awareness—helps recalibrate the nervous system. It creates space and resilience for the times when life asks us to be strong for ourselves and our families.

And it doesn’t have to stop at yoga. Self-care can also look like massage, Reiki, talk therapy, Feldenkrais sessions, writing workshops, restorative practices, meditation, and more.

Discover the Transformative Power of Yin Yoga

In our fast-paced world, finding moments of stillness becomes increasingly precious. Yin Yoga offers exactly that—a chance to slow down, go deeper, and nurture both body and mind. Rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, this profound practice invites you to hold poses, “shapes” as they are called in Yin,  for 3-5 minutes or longer, creating space for deep healing and renewal.

Yin Yoga teaches us one of life's most valuable skills: the ability to be present with whatever arises. In each shape, you have the opportunity to witness your experience without judgment—whether it's a physical sensation, a passing thought, an emerging emotion or all of these! This practice of mindful awareness extends far beyond the mat, supporting how we navigate life's ups and down.

Cultivating Curiosity by learning something new, understanding and seeing something in a different way, and contemplating different views on the same thing forms and deepens connection - a vital step towards healing in a post-pandemic world. Yoga teacher training allows students to cultivate curiosity in a way that will heal and inspire. So many of us need this kind of immersive learning and community-creating experience now more than ever. Read on to learn more about how yoga teacher training supports cultivating curiosity! We hope you’ll join us for teacher training this fall!

A simple spring ahead can rattle us, but with a little self care we can help ourselves to navigate back on track.

The closing of Yoga Haven in March of 2020 was a deep loss. But the dust has settled, and it is now time to get back up and once again make our way to the starting line. We had to knock down and deconstruct in order to arrive at this moment, ready to build back up and begin anew. This week was BIG. Demolition started in what will be our new sacred community space. As we tear down what was, we make room, and the creative energy starts to flow again. Paint colors are being chosen, people are (re)connecting, ideas are flowing, and with all of this a greater sense of hope, love, and joy rises above the rubble. We’ll see you at the finish line.

With widespread pandemic restrictions in our rear view, we are recreating Yoga Haven to serve as a beautiful, nurturing, and nourishing “third place” for our beloved community. We will come together again to practice, share, celebrate, commiserate, and simply breathe the same air. We can’t wait.

Connection and community, now more than ever, is what we need.
