Greetings wonderful people. I’ve been offline for a while now, reconnecting to soul and source and awakening to new aspects of my work to share with you. I am planning to set down my footing over the next few months and start offering classes in many forms.
As always private yoga, yoga therapy and bodywork is always available. (Along with dreamwork/Soul work/spiritual coaching and life mentoring).

FYI, I’ve moved and sold my house in Greenwood, but I’m still connected to Greenwood regularly! I now live in Travelers Rest and work here, in Greenville and up into NC. Life is bountiful and wonderous as I make a home here, look to discover colleagues and clients while I still anchor in my Greenwood roots.

More to follow. I’m awakening!!! so watch for the new stuff coming. Meanwhile, breathe and live into your truth!
If anyone is interested in a fall equinox yoga practice! Message me:) 💕 let me know you are still there, friends!

Hugs and love!

Bess

What a fantastic time, presenting a workshop and teaching yoga at the Jungian Society of Scholarly Studies. This amazing group of thinkers and activists, artists and somatic warriors have all come together in Albuquerque New Mexico this year. It is an honor to be with such amazing individuals. And dear friends!!!!

A Six-week online Summer Workshop in Somatic Awareness, Conscious Movement, and Embodied Dream Work!
with Dr. Bess Park, PhD, MFA, LMT, ERYT, ISMETA
DREAMING FROM THE BONES: A JOURNEY INTO THE ANCIENT SOMATIC WISDOM OF THE COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS
Starting: Wed. June 19th, 2024, in person (limited) and on Zoom

Meeting Every Wednesday night from June 19th – July 24th, 6:30-8:00 pm EST
Engaging with the ancient wisdom of the bones and from the collective unconscious as identified by Carl Jung, Dreamworkers and Spiritual Directors will explore SOMATIC approaches to encountering and working with images that come to us from our dreams, nightmares, insights, and imaginations.

Based on the principles taught at the Haden Institute, “Dreaming from the Bones” is also informed by Embodied Imagination ©, Dreamtending ©, Body Mind Movement ©, BodyDreaming © and Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy. Dr. Park will facilitate a series of deep dives into how we might frame working with the contents from the unconscious through the lens of the “mind of the bone.”
In many cultures bones are revered as sacred, filled with deep meaning, and hold vast storehouses of knowledge.

Learn to be attentive, listen to, and treat the bones, and the body, with kindness and respect. Our bodies are repositories of vast wisdom and deep insight. The “mind of the bone” allows us to experience our functionality, structure, and inner integrity as we organize around all movement. Highly experiential, each session will provide participants with readings, explorations, exercises, and practices that can readily be used to enhance personal growth.

Contact Bess at bess@besspark.com or 864-337-4169 (website under development) to register.
Cost of Workshop Series: $150.00. Registrations taken by direct communication up until the first class.
Location: Zoom or up to 3 registrations in person at a private studio located between Travelers Rest and Greenville, SC. Participants interested in attending in person, please contact Bess for details.

Please join me.

Greetings beautiful Yogis!
September is right around the corner and I am ready to start fall classes again! The open air and the cool autumn days and later afternoons are calling to me and, I hope, calling to you. Stay turned for the inclusion of a Thursday evening and a Saturday morning class, all levels to begin the week of September 21st.

Please contact me directly through messenger or text 864-337-4169 if you are interested, curious, and/or ready to explore the transformational power of yoga.

Classes will be outside on individual platforms while the weather is amazing or inside my home studio if the weather turns wet or overly cold.

Also be on the lookout for a zoom only yoga class for those who live in different parts of the world or who would rather practice from the comfort of your own space.

Remember if you live in Stoney Point or Gatewood, classes already are running for members of those communities. Please contact me to learn how to join those classes.

As we move into the cooler months consider how you want to stoke the fires of your inner creativity and passion for life. Namaste my beloved ones and may you always seek to find peace and unconditional kindness within and without.

See you on the mat soon!

With Love
Bess
