Deep Rest: A Guided Practice at
The Yoga Seed

This class includes intentional sequencing using gently dynamic yoga poses and restorative postures to prepare you to practice yoga nidra. Yoga nidra is "yoga sleep", or conscious relaxation, an ancient, systematic practice of allowing the body and brain to profoundly relax while the mind retains quiet consciousness. Expect to be positioned comfortably and be lead by teacher Mia Park into this profound meditation where you are progressively lead into deeper states of rest. Appropriate for all levels of experience and ability.

Candlelight Yoga Nidra at
Bloom Yoga Studio

When was the last time you let yourself absolutely relax and rest?

Join me for 90 unhurried minutes blending Restorative Yoga with the guided meditation of Yoga Nidra, or yoga sleep, in the soft glow of candlelight. You’ll be fully supported by bolsters and blankets, settled so completely that your body finally lets go. From there, my voice guides you into the threshold between waking and sleep, where your nervous system finds the deep, rest it’s been waiting for. No flexibility or strength required. Just lie down and be guided. Leave softened, clear, and rested. Click here for more info.

All classes are 7-8:30pm

Teaching Taiji

Taiji in Chicago is our school of taiji (taichi) where we practice Daoist Principles in motion.

I practice and teach taiji using the system taught by Patrick Kelly. This taiji system is an intelligent synthesis of the three great esoteric streams of Daoism/Buddhism, Gnosticism/Sufism, and Yogic internal work as studied by Patrick for over 50 years and synthesized with the approval of his teachers. I was raised practicing martial arts and have studied with Patrick Kelly and his senior teachers since 2016.

Observe a class, for free, anytime. Learn more.

I'm also super excited to teach free taiji classes in the Chicago forest preserves. Please join us for indoor taiji, and maybe you can go birding too. Learn more.
