Homes That Heal | Transform Your Home Into a Health and Wellness Sanctuary
Welcome to the Homes That Heal podcast! A show that will help you transform your home into a health and wellness sanctuary.
Hi! I am your host, Jen Heller. I am a wellness educator, infrared sauna expert, home health consultant, and your go-to resource for creating a life and home of health and happiness.
I believe life happens for you, not to you. I struggled with being overweight and tried various methods, but nothing worked. I suffered a mild stroke and discovered that I was heavy metal toxic. Through my journey, I not only healed myself but also gained a tremendous amount of knowledge. I discovered game-changing tools and met a ton of incredible people who have honestly changed my life. I transformed my home into the ultimate wellness haven, and it's my passion and purpose to share these stories and experiences with you.
On this show, I will deep dive into how you can improve your health and well-being. I will share the best tools and techniques for optimal wellness, including infrared sauna benefits and how to choose a sauna for your home or business. I will teach you how to harmonize your home with simple feng shui practices and how to create more wealth and abundance with a bagua map. PLUS, I will be answering your frequently asked questions about saunas in "Ask Jen" minisodes.
Every week, you will hear inspiring real-life stories and learn actionable steps you can take to build a healthier life and home. I will interview clients I have coached and experts in various fields. Our conversations will be loaded with insightful ways you can incorporate these practices and tools into your daily wellness wheel.
If you are looking for ways to optimize your health and elevate your home, this show is for you. Get ready for life-changing stories and take action to create YOUR HOME that heals. Subscribe now, and don't miss an episode.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ep 86 | If yoga has ever felt intimidating, confusing, or like it was only meant for certain bodies, this episode offers a different perspective. We’re talking about yoga beyond the mat—what it really is, why it’s not just exercise, and how it can support real life.
Jen sits down with her longtime friend Kelly Anunson of Embrace Yoga for a grounded conversation that clears up common yoga myths and explores the mind-body connection. Together, they talk about mindful movement, nervous system support, and why yoga isn’t about flexibility or perfection—it’s about meeting yourself where you are.
This episode is for anyone who’s felt disconnected from their body, unsure where to start, or curious about yoga but hesitant to walk into a class. Whether you’re brand new, coming back after time away, or simply craving a more supportive relationship with movement, this conversation invites you in.
🕒 In this episode:
[05:14] – Why yoga is more than just exercise
[11:15] – Taking yoga off the mat and into everyday life
[17:40] – Common yoga myths and who yoga is really for
[24:35] – Why practicing in community can be so powerful
[28:30] – Meeting yourself where you are—no experience required
[31:21] – Health and vitality with the four pillars of balance
This conversation is a reminder that yoga doesn’t need to look a certain way to be meaningful. It simply needs to feel supportive.
