Sedona Hot Yoga was founded in 2010 by Jennifer Richards. Jennifer suffered from chronic migraines, degenerative disc disease and multiple bulging discs. After being put on bed rest and recommended for surgery, Jennifer decided to go against the status quo and use her life savings to instead open a hot yoga studio in hopes a daily heated yoga practice would heal her spine. Amazingly, the leap of faith was the perfect cure. Not only is she pain free, she lost over 50 pounds from her heaviest weight and is a champion for those seeking to become the healthiest, happiest version of themselves possible. Since the first studio opened in 2010, Jennifer has since added a second location in Cottonwood, AZ and founded a healthy fast-food restaurant called Wholesome Fast Food. Jennifer's life has also been radically transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit and in her personal experiences with Jesus Christ. She feels a strong call to hold a space of compassion, non-judgement and LOVE for all those seeking to become the highest version of themselves, regardless of their religion and beliefs. Even though Jennifer's classes are not "religious" in nature, many students feel the comfort and love of God in her studios. It is our greatest joy to serve the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs of our precious community. We welcome ALL, locals and visitors, to enjoy our transformational classes and trainings!

Founder Rise Meditation
I started with just a few minutes a day, and it quickly became something I actually look forward to. My mind feels clearer, and I don’t rush through my mornings the way I used to.
Founder Rise Meditation
I’ve tried different apps, but I could never stay consistent. Rise feels gentle and grounding, and the guidance makes it easy to settle in without overthinking. After a couple of weeks, I realized I was reacting less and sleeping better.

Founder Rise Meditation
I started using it with no big expectations, just hoping to feel a little less overwhelmed. My sleep improved, my thoughts felt less chaotic, and I began feeling more present in conversations.
What surprised me the most was seeing my resting heart rate slowly drop, which showed me how much the practice was affecting my body.

No. You can use Rise on your iPhone without any additional device. However, if you have an Apple Watch, you can sync sessions and track heart-rate insights directly through your wrist for deeper feedback.
Heart-rate insights help you see the physiological effects of your practice in real time, showing how your nervous system calms, how your resting rate changes over time, and how different practices influence your body and mind.
Rise is built to support you from the very first session. Guided introductions, beginner tutorials, and gentle pacing help you learn the basics of breath awareness and mindful practice with ease.
Many users find that regular meditation and breathwork reduce stress, increase clarity, and foster emotional balance. While everyone’s experience is different, consistent practice often supports calmer responses to daily stressors.
Some people feel more calm or focused after their first session, while others notice deeper changes after regular practice over days or weeks. Consistency is key, short daily sessions often lead to lasting benefits.
Rise blends real-teacher guidance with heart-rate biofeedback, intuitive tracking, and rooted mindfulness practices shaped by lived experience not trends. Our focus is on real progress and deeper awareness rather than just checkboxes.
