““There are many different definitions of workplaces,” said Ron Goetzel, senior scientist at Johns Hopkins University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health. Now some of the factors that are as important as the physical space are climate, the culture of the organization, whether people enjoy being there. . . . Work is a marathon, it’s not a sprint. You really have to be there for a long period of time, and to do that, you have to take care of yourself.” ”

““The inspiration for workFlow came from our own experience working at coffee shops that just didn’t cut it, from how and where we get our own work done running Flow Yoga Center, and the desire to invite our community into our space in a deeper way. workFlow is rooted in the idea that life feels better when the walls aren’t so high and firm between our work, our social life, our community, and the wellness practices that support it all.” ”

“We can juice ourselves up and have a deadline and slam out the work, but there’s another way to work in which you’re taking care of yourself while you work, and that’s what I think the beauty of this experience is,” Zlotnick said of WorkFlow. “When I leave here at the end of the day, I feel satisfied and productive and much less exhausted than I would if I had gotten the same amount of work done in my office.” ”
