Meditation is so transformative—often in surprising, mysterious, and deeply soul-nourishing ways. What makes Pause so special is how welcoming and competent the team is in guiding newcomers while also offering rich resources for those looking to deepen their practice. The community is full of people navigating modern life, all working toward creating space for calm, perspective, and greater awareness. Pause brings together both the people and the techniques that make this possible.

Pause is the meditation community I've been seeking for years. After trying various meditation studios that didn't quite fit, I discovered Pause during a challenging period in my life. The studio's founders, Ryan and Rena, along with their teachers, create an environment of joy, kindness, and genuine care. Their warmth and compassion are evident in every class and event, regardless of who's leading. Pause offers exceptional Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) instruction, with the teachers' expertise and passion shining through in both online and in-person sessions. The physical studio in downtown provides an extraordinary space for practice, while the online platform fosters a caring and supportive community.

I have been renting space at Pause for a few months now. Doing so has not only been easy but greatly enjoyable. The owners are kind and professional. The space is gorgeous, loved by my clients, and feels very peaceful. This is a wonderful space to rent for wellness events. Fully stocked and clean.Their mission and business itself are a special gift to the community and I look forward to attending other events/classes at Pause.

Pause Meditation's Live Streamed Classes have been a welcome bit of calm and connection in a time those things are sorely needed. I was initially disappointed that we would not be meeting in their beautiful space downtown, but the transition to the online classes has allowed me to attend nearly every one of their offerings, incredibly easily, from my own mini meditation studio at home. Thank you so much Rena and Ryan and everyone else involved with Pause!

My company recently hired Ryan Kenny of Pause Meditation for a work conference. The concept was to start each day with guided meditation, giving attendees a chance to breath and be present before the jammed packed day started. I can't say enough good things about this experience. Ryan was... * Responsive * Accommodating * Flexible (in pricing and schedule) * Professional * Positive * Experienced * Knowledgeable * Punctual and in the words of "Mary Poppins" * Practically Perfect in Every Way Ryan's approach, which is the approach of Pause, was to not have some existential, out-of-body experience. But rather to simply take a moment to breath, be present, be kind to yourself. Something we can all use in our every day life. It was the perfect way to greet our conference attendees and accomplish our objective. To this point, I greatly appreciate the time Ryan took to talk with me prior to the conference to get a sense of our vision for this unique session. His proposal was on point, which gave me comfort since we were hiring him from half way across the country. Overall, I highly, highly recommend Ryan & Pause Meditation. In fact, our entire team wants him to open an East-coast branch. I'll be the first to sign up for his classes when he does! Thank you Ryan and Pause for an amazing experience that both the conference attendees and our staff thoroughly enjoyed.
