Due to an unsustainable increase in pricing of my long-time 3rd party paywall,
as of 12/1/2025, The Hermit Lab has transitioned to a complimentary platform open to the public.
THANK YOU to all the subscribing hermits who helped keep me afloat during the global pandemic and beyond.
To say this project and platform ensured and sustained my survival during quarantine is NOT an exaggeration.
Going forward, I will graciously accept any donations if you are particularly inspired by the content.
Be well, and happy hermit-ing <3
Everything here is a product of my own experiments, sweat, and heart.
Please enjoy, explore, and share your experience - but copying, redistributing, or selling these materials without permission is strictly off-limits.
I appreciate your integrity and respect.
Welcome to:
The Hermit Lab
Exhale. We made it here, together.
But first,
housekeeping:​
​​​
-
Classes are divided into sub-categories, each with their own page and a button to navigate you back here to the hermit home.
​​
-
Class descriptions: you will note the duration and style along with a drop-down option to access a more detailed description.
​
-
All videos were recorded without music so that you can enjoy them without music, with your own musical choices, or click the Spotify logo to link you to the private curated playlists.
​
-
I recommend using a computer if you wish to simultaneously view a class AND enjoy the playlist, as both the Youtube and Spotify apps can run at the same time and you can control each app's volume independently.​
​​
-
Several videos were created back when this was all donation-based. This being so, you will see my Venmo handle at the end of various videos. Feel free to ignore it, but I will graciously accept any donation.

-
Tag me on instagram if you share your practice! @margarucia / #thehermitlab​

I appreciate you BEING HERE
and believing in not only me,
but in YOURSELF!!
​
- PLEASE PROCEED AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION -
Happy Hermit-ing!
THE ALPHABET SERIES
An ambitious project - The Alphabet Series! Join me for a yoga-themed journey through the 26 letters as we take a focused look into various postures, meditation, pranayama, and philosophy. The final practice donned "Alphabet Soup" incorporates ALL 26 letters into one sequence.
A celebratory dance awaits you upon completion of the whole series - "All That Jazz" inside!
QUICKLES
"Quickle"= quick, little practice. Inside, you'll unlock 21 Quickles (under 12 minutes) to celebrate 2020 turning into 2021 (FINALLY!). They alternate from a physical focus to something more internal, be it a self-care activity, a journaling prompt, a brief meditation ... Happy new year, come on in!
