Your friendly Neighborhood Yoga Studio! Locally owned and operated, support two awesome women that have created such a great space for practicing and challenging yourself. I started my own Yoga journey only recently (about a year ago now) after learning about the mental health, physical, and scientific benefits. It's a very down to earth community, and you'll find many friendly folks. Good alignment, and modifications for starting levels are highly encouraged. There are workshops to focus on understanding how to properly flow when you're starting out. I highly recommend Jovon's "Begin at the Beginning." It's so clear and useful to know what to work towards when doing the seemingly simple asanas. I also love the monthly meditations, if that's something you're wanting to practice. Teachers are very friendly and open to feedback and questions. There are also a wide variety of teachers and intensity levels. First time I heard of and tried restorative, and I found it so deeply relaxing. The new studio is also very beautiful and inviting. I definitely plan to continue attending for a long while yet.

Everything about Yoga Sanctum is welcoming. Let's start off with the owners . . . Very cool, down to earth and eager to share everything they know about yoga with you. I am new to their community and everyone I have encountered has been nothing but amazing. The kind of energy you want to be around. So far all the instructors I have had a class with are great and willing to help you anyway they can to make sure you get the best out of your class. Come see for yourself . . . See you there!

Ani is a phenomenal yoga instructor, whose practice is such a gift. I was lucky enough to attend a morning session, and not only was the space truly beautiful + welcoming, but she guided such a connected flow - mind, body, soul - catering to people at various levels. I can't wait to return!

So much so that I went 3 times in one week. Jolo was able to accommodate me immediately by getting me in with Dr. Jen for acupuncture and cupping. I then followed up with Dr. Jamie for acupuncture and massage. The results were immediate as there was so much improvement and less pain. I then had the best deep tissue/sports massage that I have ever had with Dee. All the three ladies were very knowledgeable and skilled at relaxing my body and helping me heal without causing any additional pain. I will be forever grateful for finding Oasis Healing and wellness center and making my visit more enjoyable and will definitely return next time I am in town.

I have known her for quite a few years, since she was located next to the Starlight Whittier Village Cinemas. A few months ago, I went in for acupuncture and a massage because my back and neck were bothering me for a while. I had been very busy with my business and knew I needed to come in, but I kept putting it off until the discomfort became too much. By the time I went in, I was actually having a hard time walking. I left feeling so much better, with the pressure in my back relieved and the discomfort greatly reduced. In the past, I have gone to Jamie for bronchitis, lower back pain, and knee pain. She does more than provide treatment; she talks with you and works to understand the root of the problem. I highly recommend her services.

Spent the day at Hsi Lai Temple to slow down, clear my mind, and enjoy a peaceful vegetarian meal…read more Hsi Lai Temple was founded in 1988 by Fo Guang Shan, one of the largest Buddhist organizations in the world. It's also one of the biggest Buddhist temples in the United States and is known for its beautiful traditional Chinese architecture and peaceful surroundings. One thing to keep in mind is that photography isn't allowed in many areas of the temple, so be sure to watch for the posted signs and respect the rules. Before heading out, we stopped by the dining hall for lunch. The vegetarian buffet is just $10 per person and you can go back for more if you'd like. The food is simple, comforting, and filling. Just remember to take only what you can finish and avoid wasting food. It's always a peaceful place to visit, whether you're here to pray, take a walk, or simply enjoy a quiet afternoon.

The temple grounds include beautiful gardens, statues, a gift shop, a tearoom, and a vegetarian dining hall where you can enjoy affordable meal. It's AYCE, and for $10, you can't beat it! The Temple is massive, gorgeous and you feel like you're up high in the clouds. A great experience, if you've never been.

What a beautiful inviting sacred space they have created!…read moreOpen and airy, lots of class variations, friendly faces welcoming conversation for the soul. One word that really seemed to resonate this place is Kindness. -Kid friendly, pet friendly! -Classes So far they do not have classes Monday , Tuesdays, and every month their classes do change. Which is actually really neat! I do think they need to keep some consistent though maybe a few a week that are quickly filled. -I'm not sure if they have a continual membership or if it is a month by month basis. Checking online or calling is the best bet! -Very Clean space! -I love that their willingness to give back to the community through select free trial classes. -They have a private space for all your items, and lots of clean props! -Their integrity with organic teas and sharing :) lovely! I hope they get busier since they're a newer studio here in Brea. What they bring to the table is truly different and worth checking out!

Worst meditation ever!!!…read more They book an area at the mall West Elm store which we where meditating in between furniture and not enough space. People had to meditate on store furniture that people will buy. They forgot to tell people to turn off their cell phones before it started and said it during the process one the text messages were coming through. Not only that the person cell phone who didn't turn it off stared receiving phone calls during the process that's when I decided to just walk out!! Also before I forget there was people knocking on the glass store trying to get in. I don't know if it was a customer or a person who arrived late to class. This group doesn't know how to make a zen place. Don't even waste your time!!! Save your gas! If I could give less then 1 star I would. So, I received a reply to my comment and the event said nothing about a real life meditation event. So I liked how the event coordinator tried to cover their errors instead of just apologizing. I have posted a pic of the actual posting they put. And if this is what you get for free!!! Then I really won't waste my money nor time with these people

Over…read morethe course of the 3 months I learned new things about myself and my world that I was not expecting and it was through the use of meditation and the tools that she taught me that I was able to see things in a new way. I looked forward to the weekly meetings as Aimee has a kind, gentle, and supportive nature and her trainings are accessible to a newbie to meditating like me. She uses real world experiences and analogies in context with the content that makes it relatable in an easy way and the class flows seamlessly. She challenged me to utilize the trainings in my life and I immediately noticed a difference at work. I am able to walk into my department grounded within myself and I see how that also grounds my environment and my team. The website is very useful to follow along and revisit lessons. The bonus meditations became my goto for bringing this practice to my daily life. I use them on my lunch break and it revitalizes me to go back to work! The 12 week progression takes a lot of work but it is worth it. It pushed me to question the status quo of my life and to ask what I am willing to do about it. Throughout the entirety of the class Aimee was always positive and supportive of where I was in my journey.

I found the meditation to be very helpful in regulating my nervous system. Aimee's voice was soothing, and the transition to each component of the meditation was very smooth. I live on the East Coast, and the time of this event was such that it felt like being tucked in for the night, resulting in a good night's sleep.
