The Real Food Studio

04/09/2026

Dear Friends,

Last August I made a choice.
I chose to show up completely present to my family and dying father.
I chose to stop thinking the only way forward was plowing through the exhaustion and fog to meet expectations, real and imagined, because I didn't want to disappoint you.
I chose to nourish myself through mindful eating, exercise, meditation and prayer.
I chose to accept help and receive love.
I chose to reconnect with my cooking, not because it is my business, because I do believe that in our sweet little studio in the woods we can support a thriving community connected through wellness.
I am beyond grateful for all of your love and support. Thank you.
So- what's next?

I am super excited to introduce you to Vida Flow & Wellness.
With many years in the industry, she has curated an exceptional group of instructors to bring you yoga, pilates, movement, strength training, meditation and personal training. She has built a wonderful environment that is authentic, inviting and nourishing.
I encourage you to follow her and support her journey.

And, because true wellness can only happen through a holistic lens, I am supporting her business with juices, smoothies, snacks, simple grab and go and freezer meals.
As always, I am committed to being 100% gluten free, dairy free and processed sugar free because we all deserve a choice.

I am not ready to announce regular hours, and the kitchen is not reopening. The doors will be open 30 minutes before, during and after Vida's classes. There is a self serve kiosk and the market is stocked with all your favorites -thoughtfully prepared to nourish your body and delight your tastes- and of course .

I hope to see you on Saturday!
xoxoxo,
Lisa

And just like that, summer is winding down. Kids are back in school and life is settling into a new rhythm. For me, thoughtful re-entry means resetting my habits with a more balanced and less stressful approach to everything I do. Also for me, that starts with the mindful way I eat and prepare my food.
I created this series to focus on inflammation and hormone balancing so each class thoughtfully threads our studio favorite recipes with practical cooking skills and techniques to specific nutritional goals. I hope you join me!

Nourishing your body through breath work, movement and mindfulness is just as important as good food.
And we are here for it.

Join us as we fill in for Layne during her recovery! Each week will be a different teacher from our community. You can still donate to the gofundme!

Ode to summer.

It's been a bumpy month, but it feels great to be back in the game. Re-entry included a party to celebrate a very special anniversary for a very special couple.
Our sweet little studio in the woods is a perfect space for intimate gatherings and celebrations!
