Hi! I'm Mia Park.
I teach yoga and am an actress, producer, and volunteer.
Learn more about me at Mia@MiaPark.com
Mia Park teaches yoga from the inside, out. She prioritizes the linking of breath to movement as a way to access our deeper physical, emotional, and mental bodies. Connecting to these deeper bodies is a spiritual practice of self-awareness. And with self-awareness, a life of purpose can be lived. Mia uses yoga poses as a gateway to developing inner refinement. She also uses techniques she continually learns, training in yoga nidra, breath work/pranayama, energy-focused Tantra hatha yoga, yoga anatomy, yoga therapy, Daoist taiji, and other studies that support inner development. Mia and her classes are powered by hope and engagement.
Mia is a highly educated yoga teacher based out of Chicago, IL. She's a certified iRest Level 1 teacher, Rest and Renew restorative yoga teacher, 500 Hour Viniyoga teacher, E-RYT 500, YACEP, 200 CYT, a Darshan Certified Integrated Ayurvedic Practitioner and Advanced Yoga Teacher, and a former 500 Hour Parayoga teacher. Mia is also currently becoming an IAYT Yoga Therapist. She is a Domestic Violence Advocate who teaches survivors and has volunteered teaching prenatal yoga in Cook County jail since 2010.

Yoga Nidra and Brain Science
|
I presented a lecture on Yoga Nidra and Brain Science with the Theosophical Society in America in February, 2021. I love geeking out about the relationship between brain waves, the AUM symbol, and their relationship to yoga nidra, or conscious relaxation.

In response to rising stress levels, I led daily, complimentary, yoga sleep/deep relaxation practices for 30 days. These free recordings are indefinitely on my Facebook page. I hope these practices benefit you. It's a crazy ride we're on and, yes, we really are in this, together.
