These classes are…read moreheld on the third Sunday of certain months and are great for beginners who want to learn more about meditation + figure out how to start. The space is very welcoming and cozy (it was a super cold day). Paul is a great teacher and made it really accessible/approachable, which is what meditation and mindfulness should be all about! Their website has lots of information about classes and events: most are simply donation based (a couple bucks, if you can). They also have a great lending library chock full of books on mindfulness, meditation, Buddhism, philosophy, etc.

Had a great experience getting a personal yoga session with Debra. We started off with some…read morerestorative and finished off with some fun aerial tricks. I'm not new to yoga but even with the knowledge I did have, Debra expanded my practice more than most have over the past few years. Great pointers, adjustments, tips and just overall education on the movement into the pose, and not just rushing in to the pose. Yoga is called a practice for a reason. If you take the time to learn the poses correctly, your body learns where to go, like a bungee cord. It's also hard to unlearn bad habits, which I'm excited to do with Debra! The light therapy massage table is also a must try, felt so good on my spine and the heat was perfect! #yogaforlife #yogis #yogapose

I felt so lighter after this meditation, just didn't realize how the time went so fast. I hope they provide this kind of events more often, so more people can join and experience this meditation. Only thing that I personally didn't like was that Ray's voice cut off multiples times during the session, I am not sure if it happened because my connection was bad. But overall I really enjoyed the session today, and I would want to join again!

Milwaukee Urban Acupuncture

Up until recently, I was a total acupuncture newbie. But I can say now after visiting this place,…read moreI'm a fan! I've always been a fan of ancient medicine as way of healing so I was eager to try. Off the bat, the studio is welcoming as you enter. There is an overall warmth and calming aroma, and you can really feel the soothing energy. Working with Anne has been great. She comes off as very gentle, understanding, and of course, knowledgeable. She made my first time very comfortable. We talked through what issues I need work on and she thoroughly explained the hows and whys of treatment. I laid back in one of their comfortable reclining chairs and prepared to be poked! All jokes aside, you can hardly feel the needles being put in. With my goals to work on digestive and skin issues, needles were places in my legs, arms, and face as way of focusing in on that treatment. I'm still fascinated on how it all works! Don't get me wrong, you feel a bit paralyzed at first, as you're really not supposed to move around much. Once you get relaxed however, it's complete zen. The wave sounds and low-key music made for a perfect meditative zone. My first experience was about thirty minutes long, but you never feel rushed to leave. As Anne let me know, if you are in a great deep state and wish to stay longer, you can feel free to do so. Milwaukee Urban Acupuncture also offers other treatments such as dry needling, cupping, massage therapy and reiki. Something for everyone looking to heal in any way! I recommend you give this place a go.

Having tried massage, chiropractic treatments, and more pillows and mattresses than I can count to…read morehelp with my neck pain, some friends suggested acupuncture and offered up Milwaukee Urban Acupuncture as the place to try. I loved that I could book the appointment online, it's just so much more convenient for my work schedule to pop into a website between meetings and find a time that works for my calendar. Having the prices available on the site was also appreciated. The location was easy to find and I snagged parking right across the street, another bonus. Anne was very nice and thorough in both her forms and questions. As I wasn't actively experiencing any neck pain at the time of the appointment and never having had this treatment before, she recommended a general procedure that should also help with my lack of sleep. Her calm demeanor definitely put me at ease! I do wish the office area wasn't so cluttered with papers and random bags, it made me a tad skeptical of the firm's organizational skills and attention to detail, truth be told. While I am not afraid of needles, having sharp objects inserted into my body isn't high on my list of definitions of a good time, but the procedure was essentially painless and I was able to relax a bit while in the chair. Which brings me to my other quibble here: I was cold sitting in the chair with my pants rolled up to my knees and my shirt up to my elbows. Anne did bring me a blanket which helped a little, but not totally. She suggested I sit closer to a heater next time. While not untrue, it also wasn't particularly helpful. I think a better solution would be more heaters. All in all, I did sleep better that night and would definitely give it a try here again--but only if I can score a heater seat!

Take a break from your phone. Hang up your belongings. It's time to relax.

Sink into a meditative state with the sound of waves and soft music.

It's built kinda into a hillside, making for some beautiful and tricky holes. However, it's really unfortunate that it makes it ADA inaccessible.

Nonetheless, my friends and I had a great time and would love to come back to try again!

It's small and there are only a few short trails, but it's as serene and lovely as can be. Fall is a perfect time to check it out, but wear shoes that can handle mud and slippery leaves. Be sure to head all the way down to the water. The beach is minimal, but the kids will entertain themselves for hours climbing on fallen trees, looking for the perfect rock and perhaps building a shelter out of branches. One last tip: On your way down the steep hill, borrow a walking stick that you'll find on the left hand side near the entrance. Just be sure to return it for the next explorer to use.

I came here all the time when I was a kid and had the pleasure of returning recently. There are…read moreseveral short hiking loops through the woods and a steep entry trail that goes straight down to the water. There is less beach than there used to be; perhaps it's an erosion issue. If you hike along the water, the beach opens up in a few places. It's very secluded! If you take the trails off to the north of the main one, you should stumble upon a bunch of old wooden benches, which are remnants of a long-gone outdoor church. High schoolers frequent this place to, well, do the things that high schoolers do. Don't worry though, they're more scared of you than you are of them. This is a wonderful place to get close to nature. It's generally very quiet. I've seen deer, bats, lots of interesting mushrooms, and many varieties of wildflower. The trail can be overgrown, but it is still quite clear. It's not possible to get lost, as the park is rather small, and all the trails are loops. Just be careful about wandering onto private property. No one seems to care too much, but there are "no trespassing" signs by the fences. If you want better beach, you might have to ignore the warnings, but you didn't hear it from me. Also, be careful along the shore here-- it can be tricky to traverse.
