We have a really small home, so my yoga setup fits into a large tote bag that I pull out for virtual classes on weekends. It still feels like a great setup for our space though, I'm always happy and excited when I can transform a section of the bedroom into a "studio".

I loved reading this Holly and you've inspired me to see how I can create a space for myself too. A few years ago I got really into yoga, doing classes daily and I looked and felt considerably better. You've inspired me to find that joy again!

I’m so inspired! I practice daily for the past 4 years and haven't thought of “feathering my yoga nest” until now. Thanks for the idea! ❤️

My husband and I have done yoga on and off since we were in our 20's (we are now 52 & 51). We picked up at home yoga in May 2020 and have kept it up ~ we just did it this morning. It is a wonderful way to wake up the body and mind. Then we walk the dogs, even today when it is snowing and cold.

I love this post. During the Summer I am able to use our refurbished screen porch as a dedicated yoga and core + strength work out room and LOVE it. During the winter that space is not useable (COLD) and we have less room, so have only the living room as an option. My struggle is an attractive spot to keep all the 'stuff' - my mat, my block, my roller (I'm a cyclist and use that a lot), my kettlebells, my weights. Right now they are sort of together in a corner, but it doesn't really work. Looking forward to seeing how your room comes together.

Also nice to make a BIG mandala in the yoga space...

Nice Holly! I’m so happy you are in the yoga flow. Yoga saved my life 25 years ago and still continues to do so. I love those cushions you mentioned, they might just show up at my new place. Love that you have your own separate space to create this container…enjoy!

Love these ideas! And if you’re interested in pilates I highly recommend trying B the Method https://bthemethod.com/

My home is too small for a designated space, but the yoga mat is always ready and I regularly do Yoga with Adriane on YouTube - I love her style so much.

Please join her community in January, then we do a session every day!

I loved stumbling on this post—it's inspiring me to refresh a yoga space of my own! Thank you.
