There’s a seat for you right here!

The Breathing Room with .menechyan next meets on March 30th! We gather for a 90-minute session that includes guided meditation, gentle inquiry into what arises after the sit, and shared silence to cultivate stillness, integrate the experience, and bring our time together to a safe and grounded close. Each gathering is shaped by and responsive to the collective energy of the group. We hope to see you soon.

Anti-gravity chatarungas. You start in cobra with forehead down and you tuck your toes under, push heels back, raise the knees, then the upper legs off the floor, then the pelvis, the the chest and abdomen and keep the forehead down on the mat for the first version. Then do that again but raise the forehead off the floor. Then the third iteration, press your hands down and extend the arms to come to a plank. You’re welcome. I’ll likely not teach that for another 10 years.

This February, join us for two 80-minute immune health focused, lymphatic flow sessions rooted in slow, soft somatic movement and therapeutic yoga.

This gentle, nourishing practice supports lymphatic drainage and nervous system regulation through subtle, intentional movement that emphasizes ease, sensation, and internal listening.

We’ll focus on key lymphatic regions including the groin pits and armpits, along with nearby nodes in the neck, abdomen, and upper chest. Slow, rhythmic movement, simple shapes, supported holds, and light stretching will encourage fluid circulation, release, and spaciousness in the body.

You’re welcome to join one or both sessions. Each class stands alone, and together they offer a deeper opportunity to soften, unwind, and support the body in a deeply restorative way.

Bring your mat or rent one at One Down Dog.

28 days of intentional training of the heart toward care, compassion, and non-harming!

There is a Buddhist story of the Buddha sending monks into a forest to meditate. Frightened by the sounds and the unknown, they returned and said they could not stay. The Buddha taught them loving-kindness and asked them to extend goodwill to all beings in every direction. When they returned and practiced this way, their fear softened. The forest did not change, but their capacity to meet it did. This feels especially relevant now.

We are living in a time shaped by war, hunger, violence and uncertainty on many levels. Loving-kindness is not a way of turning away from this reality. It is a way of meeting it without closing the heart.

In the Metta Sutta, the Buddha speaks of cultivating a boundless heart, extending care “to all beings, without exception,” just as a mother protects her only child. This practice begins close—toward ourselves and those we love—and gradually expands outward to include the neutral, the difficult, and ultimately all beings everywhere.

For February, our daily meditation and movement practice will take on a simple and steady focus. Each session includes a loving-kindness meditation, gentle movement, and shared stillness. In essence, this month is an intentional training of the heart toward care, compassion, and non-harming.

Practices are accessible and shift slightly week to week. Cameras on or off. Come as you are and all are welcome. Meditation experience is not necessary. Join one session or all.

These sessions will not be recorded. This offering follows the rhythm of dāna. Give what you can and know you are welcome either way. Sign up once and the same link will carry you through the month.

The jaw and ribs are connected indirectly through complex interwoven muscles and fascia. Muscles that help with deep breathing (like scalenes and sternocleidomastoid) attach to the upper ribs and cervical spine, and these muscles also influence jaw movement and neck posture.

You don’t really need to know all that. Leave the leg work to me. If you’re curious to free up some space and feel real good, come on by and let’s play this Sunday.

And, enjoy some cute chewing videos while you’re here. Laughing and giggling is great for the jaw.

I am happy to be offering “Shape of Stillness” one more time at PRS for the winter season. As the seasons continue to unfold, I’m feeling into how this work wants to carry forward beyond winter. So, while nothing is announced just yet, know that this is a living practice that may find new shapes in the months ahead.

We continue our gentle daily practice into January. This series grows out of the rhythm we began in December and is open to anyone joining for the first time.

This 25-minute (morning) ritual offers a quiet place to arrive. Rather than striving for balance, we give ourselves time to listen. To breath, body, and mood. To what is present and changing. Attunement here is simple and unforced. Small adjustments. Soft attention. Letting the body and nervous system settle in their own time.

Balance and harmony are not something we chase. They tend to appear when we slow down and stay with what is here. Over time, these brief moments of presence create a steady sense of orientation that carries into the day.

You are invited to participate in a way that feels supportive. Every day or only when you can. Each session includes guided meditation, gentle movement, and shared stillness. Practices are accessible and shift slightly week to week.

Cameras on or off. Come as you are.

These sessions will not be recorded.

good old yoga at ODD and post sesh coffee hang at Clark Street Bakery!!!

Feeding off the ease and energy of last Sunday’s practice we’re gathering again for a pop up this Sunday. Join Armen for an 80-minute Winter Solstice yoga class hosted at One Down Dog in Echo Park. (Ok, let’s be real, likely 90 with an extra sweet savasana). Expect gentle somatic movement, some bigger, more expansive postures, and therapeutic poses to help you enter the holiday season feeling grounded and calm. All levels are welcome. Bring a mat or rent one at ODD if you need. Come as you are and please arrive on time. After class some of us will hang out for a cup of coffee and a sweet or savory treat next door at Clark Street Bakery. You are welcome to join if you’d like. We will be in the small dog and *space is limited*

Crowded enough. Quiet enough. Slow enough. Still enough. Grateful you shared your Sunday evening with us.
