WHY YOGA AND MEDITATION?

benefits & outcomes

Stress Relief

Many studies show the positive effects of meditation on the physiology. Our yoga is also meditative and relieves stress.

Increase Vitality

Your vitality is key to your daily energy and happiness. To feed your mind, body and soul with healthy habits helps to nourish you at the deepest level to increase your vitality.

Spontaneous Joy

When you are still, you tap into the more subtle levels of your existence where true joy resides and then bursts forth into your life.

Energizing

You release more toxins in your body with deep breathing than you do with sweating and elimination combined. In our slow, gentle yoga you learn to breath fully and often which increases energy by increasing prana, (vital force).

Sleep Better

The average person has 85,000 thoughts a day and 95% of those thoughts are the same thoughts as yesterday. The breath reflects the mind and so when you slow your breath down, your mind slows and is less busy.

Lower Blood Pressure

Studies show the regular practice of meditation
lowers blood pressure.

I left The Ivy House today feeling nourished, empowered, and nurtured.

Lisa Zaehringer – Clarksville, TN

I just wanted to thank you again for a beautiful, blissful day. What a great gift to give to oneself!

Lori Koogler, Nashville TN after Bliss Day

Thank you for your time and patience in teaching the meditation class over the past two weeks. I enjoyed the injection of energy and knowledge to reinstate the importance of meditation. I will endeavor to keep this wisdom close to my heart and integrated in my daily routine. From my heart to yours, Namaste.

Diane E, Nashville, TN

Corrine, I woke up this morning and was so grateful for YOU! I am totally pain free. My shoulder/neck and upper arm area feels relaxed with out any tension, and those knots in the deltoid region are GONE.

Kathy B.

I’ve just been reveling in the beautiful feeling since yesterday. I had a great meditation today…(drool and all!) and then went on an hour walk…continuing you the “spirit”.

Kim Fiske, Brentwood, TN after Bliss Day at Ivy House

I’m doing really great after the retreat. I’m doing my daily meditation and hip openers. My couch and cushions have never been this useful. I’m getting better and better at letting my thoughts and feelings come and go and calm down. Slowly I’m starting to understand what it means to be here now. My mind is quiet and peaceful. I’m grateful for all the wonderful changes that are happening to me. Thank you so much.

Youngeun, Nashville, TN after New Years Retreat

I feel absolutely fantastic today and I am looking forward to sooooo much more. Thanks for sharing The Ivy House with me and making me feel so comfortable and at home.

Renita, Nashville TN

I am still feeling the bliss from the retreat and that peaceful joy deep inside no matter what is going on outside me.

Mary Maurico – San Diego, CA

Yes, I am still blissed out. And so far I’m still going strong on meditating twice a day. It feels great!

Julia – Columbus, Ohio

I have turned a corner. I feel like my joyful and accepting self again.

Holly Meyers, Washington DC

I found Ivy House through a random google search, decided to step out of my comfort zone, showed up and I was immediately treated like family.

Kevin – Nashville, TN.
