I used to use videos on YouTube for guided meditations, but while they were great, I often found…read moremyself falling asleep midway through, listening to the relaxing voice of the speaker. I overheard a colleague mention that he took meditation at a local Buddhist Vihara (or temple, as he explained to me), and he loved them. I nervously decided to give it a try. I went on a Wednesday night, which is a one hour silent meditation, and honestly, if the monks hadn't been so friendly and welcoming, I don't know if I would have gone back. I barely made it 10 minutes before my legs fell asleep and I was bored. The monks made time to talk afterwards, and when I explained how poorly I did, they immediately suggested I return on another night when they offered 30 minute guided meditations, followed by question and answer sessions. I returned the following Tuesday, and have been going ever since! The guided meditations are perfect for someone who struggles to stay focused. On top of that, being able to ask any questions you want is so useful. Recently, I also took their Buddhism Level I course. It offered an extensive overview of how their "type" (I don't know what other word to use here) of Buddhism came about, as well as the opportunity to ask more in-depth questions. The monks are wonderful, warm, and welcoming. I love going there honestly, because it makes me feel at peace. I highly recommend checking it out if you're interested in meditation. They also offer a weekly yoga class! A few tips: - Take off your shoes when entering, but if it is cold, you can put them inside the front door. You can just walk right in, no need to knock! -Yes, it is a house. The house was donated, I believe, and the monks live there, but the front room has been "converted" to a temple space -The temple runs on donations. There are envelopes in the front right corner of the room. I usually just pop my money in one of those and leave it on the table. If you attend a meditation or class, please give a small donation. They rarely mention it or ask, so I am doing it. - Don't be afraid to ask questions. I once asked if they could eat pizza, and after laughing, they told me that yes, they can eat pizza! I love this place. No matter how bad my day or week has been, I leave here with a sense of peace and calmness, and I encourage everyone I know to check it out.

Rick has practiced since the early 70s and has taught since the early 80s…read more He brings together West and East principles when teaching. In any give class we'll practice both what to do with our body, as well as what is going on in our energy body. A typical class begins with warm up with some form of qi gong (energy work). Qi Gong involves slow, intentional movements that are both exercise, as well as moving meditation. Tai chi started as qi gong, turned into a form, and split into schools. After a quick break, we practice the form. The class will break into people who know the form well enough to follow, and those who are learning the basics. I've been attending since late 2014 and am truly amazed that I have access to someone like Rick with his level of experience, both breadth, and depth. He additionally teaches bagua and liehubafa, and several other forms as well. Rick is kind of an internal martial arts nerd in the best possible way.

Molly Gibb is a Feldenkrais practitioner at Innerspace and also works with clients in home…read more We are so thankful to have found her. After recovering from months in traction, herself, after a mountain climbing accident, she understands and empathizes with her clients whom are bed bound or cannot function on a normal basis. She works with my disabled daughter, using the Feldenkrais method of healing, which is the practice of finding the body's placement in space and moving in the best possible way to alleviate pain from the body and to create awareness of how the body is used during movement. My daughter suffers from full body Reflexive Sympathetic Dystrophy, which basically means that her brain thinks the affected areas are gone. It's disconnected. Using Feldenkrais, she's learning how to find the missing parts and how to reconnect her brain. Molly Gibb is kind, gentle, and she really cares about her clients. She works with basically any medical irregularity. We look forward to Molly's visit every week.

Dr. Kevin (Morford, though he never said his last name - I got that from their website) and his…read morewife run this facility that is all about helping people have less pain. Their services include massage therapy, yoga, and chiropractic care. I haven't experienced the yoga, but both massage therapists are wonderful. (Ruby and Angel - see my previous review for Angel's massage details) I would say of the 4 Chiropractors I have been to, Dr. Kevin is the very best. He doesn't seem fake, and he conveys a genuine aspiration to really help you be relieved of pain. They have a current deal where new patients can bring a new, $25 toy with receipt and the initial exam and adjustment (done on the second trip) are free. On top of that they currently have a Yelp deal - $75 for $100. I'm not sure what all insurances he takes, but he does take Blue Cross Blue Shield Oklahoma. My co-pay is only $15ish. He doesn't do x-rays unless he thinks he really needs to, but he doesn't just jump in and start moving bones, either. The first visit is a full exam looking at your nervous system, reflexes, balance, strength - everything! The next visit he will explain what he found and go through what care he thinks you need and your adjustment. Dr. Kevin is very eager to explain anything you are interested in hearing. I let him know what happened after my previous adjustment each time I come in (headache, soreness, pain moved/less/more) and he adjusts to meet that if needed. We went from hands-on adjusting my neck to a tool that uses less force because I was leaving with a headache each time. In addition to adjusting you, he gives muscle/bone therapy as well. Your visits will most likely be a little longer than appointments with other chiropractors, but you get more from it and don't feel as if you are throwing your money away for 5 minutes. I've been going for a few weeks now and my pain has only gotten better. They are pretty flexible with their appointment times and very nice. I would definitely recommend everyone to come to him.
