Homegrown Yoga

If you missed the email we sent out a few weeks regarding our Perry location, here’s a quick summary:  We currently rent our Perry studio space from the City of Perry and recently received a letter from them reading:  “The City has determined it has a need for additional space at the Perry Arts Center… Continue reading Important Announcement regarding Homegrown Perry

Dear Homegrown Yogis, I don’t think anyone’s life has gone according to plan this past year, has it?  I know mine hasn’t.  It’s been full of set-backs (closing the studio for several weeks), and it’s been full of seriously unexpected surprises (hello, new Macon studio!).  It’s even shown me how often it’s these exact set-backs… Continue reading February 2020

Dear Homegrown Yogis, If you haven’t yet seen on our social media, I am incredibly excited to share that Homegrown Yoga will be expanding in 2021 with a third location in Macon.  Our Warner Robins and Perry studios will remain exactly as they are – if you choose, you’ll now be able to use your… Continue reading January 2021

Dear Homegrown Yogis, If you’ve been to our Warner Robins studio, you won’t have any difficulty imagining what I am about to describe to you.  It’s a little after 5pm on Wednesday, and I am trying to take a left out of the studio parking lot onto S Houston Lake Road.  I wait and wait… Continue reading December 2020

Dear Homegrown Yogis, If you’ve taken a class with me lately then you probably know I recently read and reread (and even re-reread) Glennon Doyle’s newest book, Untamed.  Although I’ve underlined nearly every other sentence in the book, this is the one that struck me in a way that I can’t stop thinking about: “I… Continue reading November 2020

Dear Homegrown Yogis, “A crisis is a terrible thing to waste,” as Stanford economist Paul Romer once said.  Sounds a little crazy, right?  Yet what Romer is suggesting makes complete sense –  a crisis gives (or maybe even forces) companies to evolve, recognize priorities and hopefully grow from them.  I’ve drawn on this idea again… Continue reading September 2020

Dear Homegrown Yogis, I was recently on the phone with a brand new mom talking about the challenges of not sleeping, healing from delivery and shifting hormones.  And the only words of wisdom I could share is, “it gets better.”  Even when it feels like it never will, I promised her that it gets better. … Continue reading August 2020

I am tired. I am tired on a level I didn’t know I could be. I was always active in high school. I went to college. I served in the world’s greatest Military. I have been overworked and tired. But this is different. I am angry, because I feel like I’m fighting in a war… Continue reading Special Post from Lauren Queen
