This is Chris Redgrave for Zions Bank Speaking on Business.
Wellness is one of the buzzwords for the 21st century and, according to Yahoo Health, it's also a top trend for 2015. But when you hear it, what does it mean to you? For Stephanie DeTar, owner of The Lotus Wellness Spot in Ogden, it means a commitment to her clientele for total mind, body and healthcare.
The Lotus Wellness Spot, on Historic 25th Street in Ogden, is a combination of three businesses, all reflecting Stephanie's passions. It's comprised of Lotus Yoga and Studio, Blooming Lotus Imports and Lotus Lounge, all relatable divisions of one business under the same roof.
In the lounge, you'll find raw juice drinks and all-natural smoothies, made with as many organic products as possible. There's also sandwiches and salads with ingredients free of additives and preservatives. In the imports section, Stephanie has an earthy, cultural and eclectic shopping experience with items from all over the world. This reflects her passion for travel and all the places she has visited and lived throughout her life. The yoga studio offers a selection of yoga classes, meditation, massage and even belly dance classes.
Originally from Michigan, Stephanie came to Ogden about four years ago after spending time moving and traveling to other countries for several years. She was raised in a health conscious family, so her routine has always included yoga and a focus on healthy eating. Once she found the right space on 25th Street, she combined her vision with conscious shopping and support of local retailers to start The Lotus Wellness Center almost three years ago.
Her clientele at The Lotus Wellness Center spans all experience levels from those just starting on the path to a healthier lifestyle to those already involved health conscious living and some who are new to yoga. Stephanie says her business is growing every year as word is getting out, and more people are discovering what she offers. The Lotus Wellness Spot is a great example of why Thumbtack.com and the Kauffman Foundation listed Utah No. 1 for small business friendliness.
