If you are reading this then most likely you are somehow associated with the real estate world. A world that holds a lot of stress and mentally tolling days. It’s not often we allow ourselves the time to take a step back to settle the mind and relax the body. In my theme of “Healthy January,” I would like to introduce a place that can bring both of these elements to a racing mind. A little spot called the “Self Realization Meditation Gardens” is located in Encinitas. A place that was created with the purpose of helping people find inner peace by the world-famous Yogi, Paramahansa Yogananda who also wrote “The Autobiography of a Yogi.” 

As you walk through the gardens you will find signs that instruct you to use quiet voices and to respect others’ space. (An ambiance I personally appreciate). The lush gardens, rare tropical plants, koi ponds, and private benches will lead you to the cliffside where you can find the best view of coastal Encinitas, Cardiff Beach, and Swamis. Throughout the property, there are hidden spots tucked away for privacy to enjoy a personal meditation, do yoga, read a book, or just maybe take a load off and enjoy the sun on your face. Whatever allows you to slow down, take some time for yourself and be present. 

It’s so important to take the time to care for your well-being. The investment in oneself will pay out in the end far more than any real estate venture.  

I’ve always walked away feeling a sense of calm after visiting the Realization Gardens. The beauty is stacked in every inch of the property and designed with calm in mind. Please go take the time to find yours. You are worth it.
