Every single class is an invitation to reconnect, be present and completely lose track of time. Yes. I leave sweaty and feel an incredibly positive impact on my body and health. But, NEVER do I feel like I am doing a thing I should do... I am always finding myself on the mat. I regularly take classes with Pam, Talia and Anthony. Each class they teach feels like a gift. From the musical gifts to the mantras, I have been expecting the honeymoon to end for 9 months now. I think it's safe to say that this is truly just the experience at The Woods.

The Providence Zen Center is an incredible, healing place. I stayed there for a month in 2022 and…read moreit was a transformative experience. Everyone in the community is so incredibly kind. The mission of the Providence Zen Center is just simply to focus on compassion and practice meditation. That's it. And if by being more compassionate, learning to be more in the moment, learning to be focused and in control of our minds can help make the world a better place and help others, then heck yeah I'm going to keep doing that! I truly believe that people should at least visit the Providence Zen Center once, either on Wednesday nights at 5:30pm for dinner and meditation instruction and practice, or come check out the Sunday morning meditation instruction/practice at 9:00am and the Dharma (wisdom) talk led by a Dharma Teacher at 10:45am. The grounds are beautiful (there is a LOT of space to wander), the people are awesome, and they're even working on doing organic farming! I helped take care of plants when I stayed there. They've been selling their homegrown vegetables in farmer's markets after harvesting. The goodness they put into the local and greater community is immeasurable! It's a nonprofit organization too, so if you donate anything, it's tax-deductible. I sincerely hope that the Providence Zen Center can thrive but that can only happen if people continue to visit and join practice! So if you're looking for a place to grow your mindfulness, your compassion, and your meditation practice, look no further, this is the place for you :)

The owner has thought of everything. She has changed negatives about hot yoga and made them all positives. The room has the floors that don't stink. No carpet here. This material absorbs and cleans sweat better then anything I have seen. The showers, the layout, the simple choices in their small shop (mats sweatshirts drinks) all thoughtfully picked out. I can't say enough. Thanks for having me!
