At Prana Cafe, we believe that true nourishment extends beyond just the body—it also nurtures the mind and spirit. Our mission is to open the hearts of our guests through vibrant, refreshing smoothies, soul-soothing soups, revitalizing matcha, and grounding coffee. But what sets us apart is not just our menu of wholesome offerings. It’s the deep commitment to something greater: a collective mission to elevate the consciousness of our community, one heart at a time.
With the opening of new Prana Cafe locations across Austin, we are embarking on a powerful journey—a journey that’s about more than just serving delicious, healthy food. We are creating a network, a grid of heart-centered spaces that each serve as a beacon for collective healing and expansion. Through synchronized group meditations, sound baths, and community practices, we’re actively working to raise the vibration of the city and deepen the connection between every individual who walks through our doors.
What is Collective Consciousness?
The concept of collective consciousness refers to the shared beliefs, values, and attitudes that bind a community together. It’s the idea that as individuals, we’re not isolated beings, but rather interconnected through a deeper, invisible thread. Every thought, action, and intention we put into the world contributes to the larger vibration of the collective.
At Prana Cafe, we see the power of collective consciousness as a tool for personal and communal transformation. When people come together with a shared intention—whether that’s to meditate, to nourish the body with wholesome food, or simply to be present in the moment—they create a ripple effect. These small, intentional acts can elevate the energy of an entire city, helping to expand the hearts and minds of everyone involved.
Heart Expansion and Community Connection
The heart is at the core of everything we do at Prana Cafe. It’s not just a symbol of love and compassion; it’s the energetic center of our being, connected to both our inner world and the world around us. Our menu is crafted with ingredients that nurture this energy—smoothies that refresh and energize, soups that comfort and soothe, and beverages like matcha and coffee that bring balance and clarity.
But nourishment doesn’t stop with food. At Prana, we offer meditation, yoga, and sound bath experiences to help you expand your heart and deepen your connection to your own consciousness. It’s through these practices that we tap into the infinite potential of the heart, helping to unlock the full power of collective consciousness.
As we open new locations across Austin, each Prana Cafe will be designed as a sanctuary for community wellness—a place where guests can take a moment to pause, breathe, and connect. These spaces will also host synchronized group meditations, designed to amplify heart expansion and raise the vibration of our collective energy. Whether you’re a long-time practitioner or new to these practices, these group meditations will provide an opportunity to ground your energy, connect with others, and contribute to a greater, shared sense of unity.
A Grid of Heart-Centered Locations
Our vision for Prana Cafe goes beyond the walls of a single location. We are creating a network of unique, heart-centered spaces across Austin that form a grid of energetic connection. Each new Prana Cafe will serve as a hub for community healing, a place where people can come together to meditate, expand their hearts, and raise their vibration.
The synchronized group meditations we’ll be offering at each location are designed to create a ripple effect that radiates out into the city and beyond. When multiple groups meditate at the same time with the shared intention of raising collective consciousness, the energy created is amplified. This practice will not only bring a sense of personal peace but will also foster a collective awakening—helping to shift the vibration of Austin, one heart at a time.
Join the Movement
We are excited to announce our new location on South Lamar, opening Summer 2025.

Whether you’re here for a nourishing smoothie, a heart-expanding yoga session, or a moment of stillness in one of our group meditations, you’ll be joining a community of like-minded individuals who are all working together to raise the vibration of the city.
It’s a new era for Austin—one that’s grounded in love, connection, and collective healing. At Prana Cafe, we’re committed to supporting your personal journey while also contributing to the greater good. Through intentional practices and heart-centered experiences, we’re fostering a collective consciousness that will not only elevate the individual but uplift the entire community.
