Finding Balance in Everyday Life with Kelly Mortensen

June 21, 20251 min read

In an ever-busy world, finding time to relax and recharge can seem impossible. That's why Kelly Mortensen, a Houston-based yoga teacher and life coach, is here to share the transformative power of restorative yoga. This practice is all about leaving behind the hustle and finding a calming space within. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by your workout routine or daily commitments, this session might be exactly what you need.

Why Restorative Yoga Matters

The fast-paced rhythm of life often leaves our minds spinning and bodies exhausted. We push ourselves to be endlessly productive, sometimes forgetting that rest is just as critical. Restorative yoga invites you to step back, embrace stillness, and let your body enter a restful state, recharging both mind and body.

What You'll Learn from Kelly

In Kelly's session at the Art of Rest Retreat, you’ll explore how props like pillows and blankets create a cocoon of comfort that supports deep relaxation. This is more than just yoga; it's an invitation to listen to your body and adjust according to its needs. You'll learn about the importance of acknowledging your current state of stress and setting intentions that resonate with your journey, fostering self-compassion and inner peace.

A New Way to Think About Relaxation

Kelly’s approach challenges the notion that rest is unproductive, encouraging us to see it as a powerful tool that enhances our productivity. By creating intentional moments of rest, you nurture resilience and balance, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling life.

MEET THE AUTHOR,
STEPH BLAKE

For years, I poured everything into building my business and raising my family—until I realized I lost a part of myself in the process.

I used to be deeply creative, finding joy in designing, making, and exploring new ideas.

But as life got busier, that creativity took a backseat to client work, to-do lists, and the daily demands of running a business and being a mom.

One day, I decided to slowly start creating again—just for myself.

I explored new hobbies to get a quick dopamine hit for my ADHD brain with no expectations or pressure. And everything changed.

Tapping back into creativity became a form of self-care, a reset button, and a way to feel connected to myself!

Now, through Create & Escape™, I help others rediscover that same creative freedom!
