When I looked at the class schedule online I noticed they have live digital classes. Awesome! Now, I was so happy I could do my meditation class at home and not have to worry about parking or traffic. For me, this was the perfect situation! I chose the Miracle Meditation class. I emailed the front desk and they signed me up. Super easy. The class was a half hour long. I was e-mailed the Zoom link 15 minutes before class. Super easy. No technical issues. When I logged on I was relieved that they had already turned off my camera and microphone so I didn't have to worry about doing that. The class started right on time. Shayna was the teacher. She was very calming. We started with some breathing exercises and then did a meditation on the crescent moon and the rising sun. The class was relaxing and a nice way to start my morning. If you don't live close or you are a busy person like me I suggest trying out the digital classes at Unplug Meditation. It will ground you, improve your mental health, and increase your focus.

The Vibe: You stay in the room, but everything moves. (This…read moreis the new theater. And yeah, it's your show.) The Space: There's a clear progression. Entry: A natural, open atrium Walk-in: Clean, gallery-like Meditation Room: Darker, softer, low to the ground. It mirrors the journey you're about to take. The Classes - Camila's Breathwork & Sound Bath: The container opened with a theme: Prune the plant. Remove what's dead so what's alive can expand. Breathwork: Open-mouth breath pattern. Belly chest (inhale, inhale) Exhale In Sync. Rhythmic. Effective. At some point, the music carried the message: You don't wait for life to change to feel better. You shift first. What you choose internally is what gets reflected back to you. (https://youtu.be/2GzFRyZxIkY?si=OwRNUXb_GPzBCMLH) Then Ruthie's Time Travel Meditation: We started with a slow body relaxation...feet to crown, and somewhere along the way...you disappear (ahhhh, yaaaaaaas!). Blissed out. The only thing that really stayed was the question: "What truly matters to you?" And the answer didn't come as thinking. It came as knowing. The Container: Both instructors clearly explained what to expect. Which translates to: Safety. Relaxation. Letting go. Feeling. Practical Notes: Wear something you can fully relax in (you're lying down most of the time) Expect emotional + physical release (it's not just "relaxing") Great if you're feeling full, overwhelmed, or in transition This is more inner work than "class" Bring a journal and markers for insight! Water Station (a must!) Free street parking and/or metered parking Wisdom: Clarity isn't found. It's what's left when you let go.

When I first enrolled in Christina's six week Level I meditation course, I don't know what I was…read moreexpecting. Perhaps some guided meditations, tips and tricks to staying focused, a weekly night trying not to squirm. In any case, I never imagined that it would have the profound and lasting effects that it has. I took Level I almost a year ago and then several months ago, took Level II. The deep personal exploration Christina guided me through during these courses, both in class and with the incredibly powerful assignments to work on outside of class, continue to have an impact on how I see myself and the world. Christina is an incredible teacher, facilitator, and listener. Her guided mediations are the best, bar none! (Christina, please make a recording!!) She creates an intensely intimate and open vibe in class-- I felt very close to my classmates by the end of each course. I feel so grateful that I've had the opportunity to learn from her and I definitely plan on taking more classes!

Christina's experience working with Angelenos like us - struggling with uncertainty or finding our passions or relating to our partners (did I say or? I meant and, and, and) - as well as people struggling with serious traumas and mental health issues has led her to become just an amazingly adaptable guide. It seems there's nothing anyone in the group can say that she isn't able to zero in on and find the underlying core issue. Then she fires off exercises and strategies to unravel it for yourself and heal and grow. It's a beautiful thing! I'm thankful I followed my gut and took her class.

This review comes a good few months after my sound bath with Monique. Yes, I'm a horrible…read moreprocrastinator when it comes to Yelp reviews. But the fact that I'm still thinking about this experience months later should tell you something about what Monique can do. You won't be getting a New-Agey music concert, and you won't be getting a bunch of discordant, disconnected sounds that distract you from the treatment, either. As an adult on the autism spectrum, I've been unusually sensitive to sound for as long as I can remember, and I was worried at the time that some of the sounds would be jarring or actively painful- they weren't. Not all of the sounds were pleasant to me, but it was more like the feeling you get when someone's massaging a difficult muscle, or the sensation that the aspirin you took is starting to get to work on your headache- like there's something bad being worked out of your body, not something negative and painful being imposed on it. What I got out of the treatment wasn't flashy or dramatic, but it was amazingly helpful: I had an easier time staying calm and feeling positive about things, and my brain worked more efficiently, cruising from one task to the next without getting bogged down in unnecessary details, unhelpful worries, or general executive dysfunction. I'd love to try this again. In the meantime, if you're thinking about trying a sound bath, I'd wholeheartedly recommend Monique- she's knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and extremely good at what she does.

It was soft, grounding, and alive with possibility. Bianca carries such a radiant presence; she truly embodies light and healer energy. Her guidance felt loving and deeply intentional, like she was holding a safe, nurturing container for us. We moved through different breathing techniques and gentle visualizations that allowed me to drop into myself and reconnect with my heart. Her energy is both mothering and empowering (a true goddess presence). I left feeling lighter, clearer, and so grateful. Bianca is a rare soul, dedicated to service and to helping others awaken to their own divinity. If you have the chance to experience a session with her, do it, it's pure magic

Anyhow she was hosting a lower back pain workshop for $30 - cool deal. So I wanted to see if it would work for me. May was excellent delving into the spine & back physiology before we got into the therapy work. No special treatment for me. Everyone got the same attention. She's really positive, encouraging, and a great teacher! I was a total n00b but I felt super comfortable following her instructions. And even better, my back has felt great ever since.

I have played competitive sports my whole life, and I recently tried traditional group yoga classes as a way to recover from a recent sports injury. However, I ended up getting further injured in those classes from the strenuous positions and rapid pace. May has been able to develop a personalized program that allows me to work around my injury (and other lingering injuries) so I can get many of the physical benefits of yoga, all at a pace appropriate for my injuries. That said, the greatest benefits I have received from practicing with her don't have to do with the physical parts of yoga. The largest benefits have come from May helping me to work through my frustrations related to my injuries through meditation, breathing, and yoga philosophies. May's continual positive reinforcement and gentle nudging to keep me accountable have been just the type of coaching I have needed. I also am not very spiritual, and I appreciate how May has not pushed the spiritual pieces of yoga, which others studios have been very pushy about. May is one of the most genuine people you will meet, and you can tell from the moment you meet her how much she cares about you. I have received so much from my short time working with her and my only regret is that I had not found her sooner.

From the moment you arrive, Jaya greets everyone warmly and invites you into what she calls the "Veda family," immediately creating a sense of inclusion and belonging. That feeling continues throughout the class -- people were friendly, open, and kind, introducing themselves before class and checking in afterward to see how it was. It felt less like dropping into a random class and more like being welcomed into an existing, caring community. The studio is well organized, with clear guidance on where to go, open shelving inside the room for belongings, and padded flooring that adds noticeable comfort and support during practice. The class begins with a collective Om and settling breathwork, then moves into a steady, rhythmic flow. This is an intermediate-level class with light heat that builds energy and then gently slows down with stretching at the end. (Sidenote: no balancing or long holds - mostly all flow.) The class closes with a chant (with the option to join or simply listen), ending together with "Om, Shanti, Shanti, Shanti." The Indian-inspired music adds to the grounded, cohesive feeling of the space. Practical notes: The bathroom is just outside the studio and is easy to access and very clean. There are no showers, but the gentle heat makes them unnecessary. Free, tandem parking lot behind the studio. A thoughtfully guided class with a sense of friendliness and community. Easy to recommend and definitely will be returning!

Summary: A soulful, fire-lit Saturday experience blending heat, movement, ritual, sound, and…read morecommunity. First Impression: Check-in happens at a reception desk, where you're given a small chip to place at the head of your mat for the teacher to collect. It's a simple ritual, but it immediately signals that you're stepping into something more mindful than just another workout. The Space: The studio feels clean, modern, and calm. The foyer is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room to sit, chat, or simply linger between classes. The Class (Heated Power Vinyasa): Beau opened class by sharing that we're approaching a Leo fire moon and closing out the Year of the Snake, a time to burn through what no longer serves us and have the courage to be seen and shine. It was intriguing and immediately set the tone for the practice, especially as we moved through both the external heat of the room and our own internal fire. We sealed the intention with a collective Om, and the flow unfolded naturally from there. The sequence built steadily and rhythmically, moving us around the mat in a fluid, dance-like way. Crow, frog stand, reverse dancer, and options to kick out in Cross-Body Mountain Climber were woven in beautifully. It was high energy without feeling frantic, and the class honestly flew by. As we moved through the heat and effort, it felt natural to visualize shedding layers that no longer serve us. As the class came to a close, it felt like something had been worked through, not just worked out. We ended with a collective Om and an invitation to stay for the next class. The Class (Heated Yin with Sound Bath): The transition into Yin was seamless. Jenny from My Daily Harmony (https://www.instagram.com/mydailyharmony/) joined with sound bowls layered over beautiful music, including James Blake's I Need a Forest Fire. Beau kept the poses grounded and supportive, allowing the sound, music, and light in the room to do their magic. I was completely carried away by the experience. The Teacher: Beau is clearly a dancer, and that shows throughout her teaching. The sequencing had a natural rhythm, and the class felt like a fluid dance rather than a series of poses. She cues in English, her pacing is steady and rhythmic, and she creates a container where strength, playfulness, and release all come through. Overall Experience: After Yin, Beau brought us back and invited everyone outside the yoga room for tea (she personally made) and oracle cards. We gathered around a table, pulled cards, shared the guidebook, reflected, and chatted. It was playful, warm, and a moment of connection that echoed the themes of release, courage, and authenticity woven through the entire experience. The Vibe: Grounded, intentional, and communal. Movement, meaning, and connection come together naturally.

That specialist said that he couldn't do anything for me, and sent me to PT. He just wanted me to take drugs for the pain. PT saw me for a few visits and they said that there was nothing that they could do for me. They too gave up, so I gave up. I went 6 months just sitting and getting worse, until I was introduced to Linda Lack and TBFM. I'll admit that I wasn't expecting much at first after my recent experiences.
