POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

✨ The middle is where the real work begins. ✨

I’m halfway through my two-week meditation retreat and sabbatical, and I’m reminded of something my dear friend @renequenell shared after walking the Camino de Santiago:

🥾 The first third is physical.
🧠 The second third is mental.
🙏 The final third is spiritual.

And here I am… smack dab in the messy middle! 😅

The mind gets louder before it gets quieter. Old stories surface. Resistance shows up. And all the things we thought we’d left behind come knocking.

But here’s the beauty: The middle isn’t where we’re stuck. It’s where we’re being transformed.

Whether you’re on a meditation retreat, navigating a life transition, or simply trying to find your footing in an ever-changing world, consider this:

💫 What if whatever is coming up for you right now isn’t getting in your way, but showing you the way?

Keep going. Keep listening. Keep showing up.

The journey inward is worth it. ❤️

Morning 🧘🏽‍♀️ practice feels so good without any distractions. ✨
✔️For today, can you spend a little time doing something you love (and for your mental/physical health) and tune everything else out? Open to the ease of just being and notice how you return with more focus, energy, patience and clarity.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

30 Years of Teaching… and Still a Student.

This October feels particularly meaningful.

September marked 30 years since I began teaching yoga—and 25 years since I made teaching yoga and wellness my full-time life’s work. Even writing those numbers feels a little surreal. That’s thousands of classes, countless students, many trainings and retreats, wonderful teachers and colleagues, some very early mornings 😂, and a whole lot of life lived together on and off the mat.

More than anything, I feel grateful.

Yoga has given me a livelihood, yes—but far more importantly, it has given me teachers, friendships, community, purpose, resilience, and a path that continues to ask me to grow. And so it feels wonderfully appropriate that I’m celebrating this milestone not by teaching more, but by becoming the student again.

This month I’m heading to the Himalayan Institute for a full-on personal retreat—reconnecting with dear yoga friends and teachers, stepping away from my usual responsibilities, and diving deeply into my own practice, including Maha Sri Yaga and Sri Sukta Stage 2.

After 30 years, one thing feels clearer than ever: there is always more to learn, more to experience, and more of ourselves to uncover.

To every teacher who has guided me, every colleague who has walked beside me, and every student who has trusted me to share these teachings: thank you. You have shaped the teacher—and the student—I am today.

Here’s to honoring where we’ve been, staying curious about where we’re going, and never being too experienced to begin again. 🙏

Blessings and peace,
Tanya Boigenzahn

Let Sardinia be your first Blue Zone experience, and let it set a new standard for what a retreat can feel like.

In Sardinia, longevity is not a trend. It is a way of life shaped by daily movement, unhurried meals, and deep-rooted community. The result is the kind of reset people notice, not just during the trip, but long after they are home.

We have just two dates left open for next year. If you want Sardinia on your calendar, now is the time to claim one and start building your group.

Eagle 🦅 medicine magical finish to the end of summer yoga down at Lake Harriet. Eagle soared over us many times so low that we really felt seen by the Eagle eyes 👀 ! And then it dove into the water💧, caught a fish 🐟 and flew away. At least WE weren’t for breakfast! Thanks to @sjwroblewski and @breadandpickle for creating the container for all of us volunteers to offer this very special community gathering of Yogis. 🧘🏾 🧘🏽‍♀️ 🧘🏻‍♂️ And thank you to all the students who get up early and make the time to come move and breathe and enjoy the elements and nature together. I will miss you, but just know I’ll be adding some more classes to my schedule in a couple months and hopefully you will come see me at @devanadiyoga !!!!
See you next year!!!
