We lost our mascot 😢

The best cuddle partner, walking companion, paddle board buddy, and detector of any and all sounds 😄🤣💖

🐶 his time was short but potent. He was a bridge. He helped people that were new at the yoga studio feel at ease and he always knew when to comfort, and who.

🐕 He literally chose us, breaking out of his fenced yard and running to us. It was love at first sight. Super was a part of Rooted, he was a part of us.

It's clear now he took on so much pain from others, absorbing them...

💖 thank you for all your love.

You'll be missed by so many....rest easy boy.

This is our beautiful friend Scott. ✌️

💪 He found us through his functional medicine practitioner and has been building strength through weekly sessions with

⛰️ He's gone on adventures with us (Kettle River Retreat)

🩵 He's become a great friend with sound wisdom & an open heart.

Personalized sessions are so much more than asana (physical postures) it's listening and getting to know someone on a very deep & vulnerable level.

We meet you right where you are and we support you along your journey.

Aren't you tired of playing small?
Are you ready to step into your life fully?

✨️ it's time to heal.

Yoga... what an interesting topic. Maybe not to you...but yoga (not flexibility or yoga pants) is at the foundation of who we are.

Yoga - union, to yoke, to calm the fluctuations of the mind..... 👍🏼 we are trying our best.

We are doing "The Yoga" in each breath we take, it's sitting in the red dirt. It's being truthful. It's sitting in the uncomfortable so you can better understand the SELF. It's in the way you treat someone that can do nothing for you. It's following your heart, trusting your gut, and cleaning you dam house....living the yoga is what we are interested in.

So how's your practice going?

Maybe I'm not for this place...or maybe it's not for me?
Either way we're in...100% as Rooted Yoga all we've ever wanted was community, relationships that challenge and support our growth, and I guess in a way we've received that. We are hoping to expand on this experience as spring shows up. So if you want to share a workshop, healing session, sound journey, or any other experience, we are happy to share our space and support the evolution of our community. 💛✌️🌎

🌻 We honor the feminine in each of us. The strength that comes across in our truths. The way we connect our hearts 💕 to our power.

Women contain the entire universe ✨️ within them. May we heal ourselves so we support the healing of the entire world 🌎 🙏🏻

"In life there are times we must stand up and fight and there are ways we can soften, in order to lead & love." Kolbie 💚

🙌 "Surrender is not reacting to the stimulus. It doesn't mean we let go of the thing, but rather let go of the reaction to the thing.

Surrender creates space for spontaneity & transformation.
🔥 Surrender is NOT giving up, it's going IN."🙏🏻 quotes from

Sometimes, we forget we have the power. You are the power. Yoga provides the connection between your limitless power and your heart. 💚

It is time for radical self-acceptance. We put too much energy into gaining acceptance from external sources; people, work, status, social media. You are amazing, your light & your darkness together complete the full spectrum of you. Accept everything and do so with deep devotion and compassion. Growth begins here, in acceptance, right now.
What could you do if you got out of your own way?

Yoga was intitally practiced by men 🏋️‍♂️ thousands of years ago ✨️

The way in which Yoga was practiced has changed so much, while not changing at all.

🔥 Yoga is union, to alchemist and harmonize the whole BEING... We believe YOGA is for all of humanity 🙏🏻

Owning a small business is kind of like having a family. There is so much love, beautiful, and freedom. Right when things feel nice and safe BAM!!!! Growing pains to keep you on your toes, keep you expanding. ✨️ Gratitude for it all.

Sometimes the greatest teachers are right in front of us. All we need to do is listen. All we need to do is look. All we need to do is tune in to the teachings that life provides. If you are interested in a private yoga session reach out for a consult. Rooted Yoga & Wellness is here for you.

Remember to have grace for yourself. We get lost. We forget our true nature, but it's part of the journey of coming home. A practice we love, is calling yourself back or pieces of the Self that have been lost back. This involves some yelling, some nature, maybe tears, maybe joy, vulnerability & freedom ...everyone's experience is different - if you're ready to remember how powerful & magical you ✨️ it's time to call yourself back.

"Kolbie is a passionate & caring guide that is capable of spontaneous laughter or strait fire 🔥 She commands the room through an inquisitive attention to the moment. Her ability to lead people into deep states of self-discovery makes her a wonderful partner & authentic yoga practitioner." ❤️

🌌Step into the ultimate wellness journey ~ where yoga meets next level well-being.

We were born storytellers, our messages passed on... what stories are you passing on? What stories are you telling yourself? I've learned the magic medicine of stories telling and ancient traditions from many teachers, but one that remains a ritual of mine comes from a good friend and mentor- Roger Vielle a Blackfoot Elder - the power of prayer, smudge, and intention.

What a great community!!!

Happy Full Moon 🌕 The wolf 🐺 moon! 🕯
🌌 Expect some friction but this full moon is a potent portal for change. This is a time for exponential growth. Harness the universal energy! ✨️🖤
The ego is illuminated by this square; what attachments (relationship, career) do you maintain to define yourself?
That's a tough question...but be honest with yourself. Growth rarely comes easy, but it's worth the effort 👌

We can truly say our practice has brought us closer as a couple. It's given us strength to continue past "failure" it's brought fresh ideas and momentum to stale visions and old ways of working. It's part of our foundation & lights the path to our moral ethics. Practicing together connects our paths and our hearts. We have our own practices too, but when we sit side by side, something profound takes place...it can't be described in a post, only experienced for one's self. ❤️

✨️Yoga is not about physical flexibility. 🧘‍♀️
⭐️Yoga is a lifelong practice of knowing one's Self. 💚
🫶 Your practice will bring you to the edge it will take you into your shadow.
🧘‍♂️ Yoga is NOT for the faint of heart.
🩵 Yoga is a warrior's practice. 🤺
We must surrender to the human experience and then...and ONLY then - do we recognize that ALL of everything is within us 🌄🖤🌌

There can't be light without darkness. We say these things and I know we mean them, but what happens when you're in the middle of the darkness? How has your practice paved the road to truth, even when the truth is uncomfortable and dark, even when you know the truth is painful? When we keep giving fear power, it stops the truth from being seen. In the darkest times of your life - I hope you have someone that loves you by your side, telling you it's okay to be fully human. ❤️ I can say that I do have those people, and they are strong enough to hold space for the darkness. ❤️ Kolbie

We live in a time of constant showy display meant to impress others, but what if simplicity was the new, old way of living? Simplicity holds its own enchantment. It beckons us towards a life of contentment (santosha). Society's obsession with possessions and consumerism often obscures this path, casting shadows of doubt on the beauty of simplicity. Yet, the truth remains unblemished; a simple life can bring happiness, peace stress, and support a healthier planet. In the end, each soul must choose their path, choose wisely. 💚🐍🌳

The practice of yoga is a mirror for our lives, how you show up for people, for yourself, but also the willingness to let go of selfishness and be totally present. To be fully present is a practice, it's an art of slowing down and savoring this life, this moment. ♥️

Traditional yoga encompasses a holistic approach to well-being, incorporating physical postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), meditation, and ethical principles. Rooted in ancient Indian philosophy, it seeks to harmonize mind, body, and spirit, promoting self-awareness and a balanced life, it's a practice that radiates far beyond a mat or studio...it penetrates your core, it illuminates the darkness and brings movement to stagnation. This path is for the brave, those willing to look through new eyes, to move from ignorance into truth & freedom. It asks you to show up again and again.
