this is what we do

we show up in the world, to rediscover our true nature, as students; always learning, always growing, always changing

but once thing remains the same

the practice is liberating, the practice is freeing - no matter how REAL the “real world” gets, you always know where to come back home 🤎

as teachers, as parents, as professionals, as a community, may we always live in the mood of being a student, recognizing that there is always something new to feel - may we forever be open to the novel magic within each day, each moment, each breath 🤲

how does it feel to practice alongside a jai teacher?✨✨

this lovely lady!

Ahimsa (the first yama in yogic foundational principles) is often understood as non-harming or non-violence. But it’s not solely about how we treat others—it’s also about how we treat ourselves. In a world that constantly pushes us to go faster, do more and work on the externals, practicing ahimsa means embracing compassion, gentleness and mindfulness toward our own bodies and spirits.

It’s about listening to our healing intuition and choosing to follow it. It means giving ourselves permission to rest and letting go of the need to always be productive. It can also meaning giving yourself the extra push of love and courage in trying something new and beneficial. True self-care aligns with ahimsa because it allows us to nurture ourselves in ways that promote balance and well-being. By carving out time for stillness, reflection and choice, we can truly honor our needs without judgment or guilt.

It’s not the heat itself we’re against—it’s the misconception that hot yoga has to be uncomfortable or intense to be beneficial. Unlike traditional hot yoga rooms that just crank up the thermostat, Jai’s 10 infrared heaters act as a sauna for the body; infrared waves draw deeper into the fascia, promoting muscle/joint recovery and even skin rejuvenation through improved oxygenation and blood flow. Infrared heat is a transformative experience all the way down to your bones.
•
But the benefits go far beyond just the physical. Research shows that movement in infrared heat can help alleviate symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) by releasing endorphins and boosting serotonin levels, which naturally uplifts your mood and revitalizes your energy. *Jai was recently featured in a news story highlighting this groundbreaking research (see 👇)*
•
Give yourself an hour for your body to experience this therapeutic approach to “hot yoga”. You can still sweat, you can still be challenged, but it will be intention and authenticity guiding your every breath. Why settle for just sweat when you could step into the place where you can truly drop in, connect and release.
•
At the end of the day, regardless of the room’s temperature, let us always hold onto this bit of wisdom from Meg:
“Being more mindful, becoming present and embracing the experience as it unfolds allows us to create space and clarity in our lives, helping us navigate the constant shifts and chaotic beauty of the world around us.”

Thank you all for making Jai what it is each and every day. Thank you for supporting us as the studio grows and changes. Thank you for holding us accountable, to always keep the most important things the same🙏
