Yin Yoga
Slow down, soften, and ease into the body. This nourishing Yin Yoga class with Maya invites you to release deep tension, improve flexibility, and calm the nervous system through long-held, supported poses. Gentle breathwork and soothing sound healing weave through the practice, guiding you into deep rest, balance, and a renewed sense of being.
Yin Yoga deeply targets the fascia and connective tissues, supporting joint health, mobility, and long-term resilience. The slow, sustained poses help stimulate collagen production and encourage the release of hyaluronic acid, nourishing the joints and improving flexibility from within. This meditative practice also enhances circulation, reduces stiffness, and creates space in both the body and mind.
Class schedule:
Mondays 7:00 P.M.
Wednesdays 9:00 A.M.
Location: 7789 W Talcott Ave. Chicago, IL 60631
Breathwork & Sound Healing Experience
Join Maya and Alex for a deeply immersive breathwork and sound healing experience designed to transform, alchemize, and regulate the nervous system. This unique combination of modalities begins with guided breathwork to shift awareness, release stored tension, and support detoxification, opening the door to deeper states of presence and connection.
From there, you’ll be gently guided into an integrative sound healing journey, allowing the body to fully receive and process the breathwork on a deeper, more somatic level. As sound vibrations move through the body, they help regulate brainwaves, support nervous system balance, and create space for emotional release, deep rest, clarity, and inner alignment.
This experience is enhanced with ceremonial blue lotus tea, known to activate the third eye chakra, awakening the inner vision and raw cacao seeds, which support the opening of the heart chakra. Together, these botanicals set the tone for a beautiful, intentional journey, enhancing deep relaxation and inviting a blissful, expansive state.
Expect a powerful, full spectrum experience that weaves breath, sound, and intention into a truly transformative and integrative journey.
Does this resonate with you? We certainly hope so. Join us the last Sunday of every month.
